A Paddling of Ducks....FMS137








This happy flotilla of ducklings has been sent to new parents to welcome their baby boy. I had to mail this card right out because every time I looked at it I had an irresistible urge to pick up one of the ducks and look underneath to see if I won a prize! 


Jen Mitchell has a great sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!  It definitely made me get my ducks in a row!  The ducklings are from the new stamp set/framelit set Something for Baby and are stamped in Hello Honey and Tangelo Twist.

LOL I won Laila a penguin last time I picked a duck! :) Now they have to scan a barcode on the bottom to tell you what you win.

Anyway, super cute card. It was an awesome way to use the sketch!

Another "pure genius" card. How you came up with this amazing card by looking at the sketch is beyond me. I love, love, LOVE this adorable card.

Love the flotilla. A perfect card. Thanks for sharing the inspiration. I must have gone to different types of carnivals...we had similar duckies but the idea was to knock them down as they sailed back and forth in a shooting gallery and a bell rang every time you hit one. I don't remember looking under them for a prize...though now you have me curious. How does your version of the game work? :D
