Puzzle Pieces...MUSE Challenge #51, CASology Challenge #183~Glitter

Hello,

Sunday evening...already! Are you watching Super Bowl? My husband is, and I think it's apparent what I'm doing. Actually, I'm hoping for a Budweiser Clydesdale commercial...

Anyway, a quick post because I have "Joy, joy, joy, joy, deep in my heart" that I was able to *play cards* with our sweet, punny Michele over at MUSE Challenge #151

No song titles accompany my card (I'm tune-less these days *grin*), BUT I've drawn inspiration from:
  • 4 repeated images, with one 'slightly' different (my 'missing' piece stands alone, flat to the panel)
  • red and white 
  • hearts
  • "uses' the word love that is 'implied' in Michele's.

And, that's all I've got! Hope it passes the litmus test of being MUSE-connected.


My wee hearts are cut from glitter paper, so I'm taking my small offering to CASology Challenge #183~Glitter


A week of work and then a week off (well, nearly a week: I do have to pop into work next Thursday and Friday for a bit...). I'm sooooo ready for some time off (which is rather pathetic, given the semester just started...)! We're planning to visit my husband's family over the weekend, returning Monday. Hopefully, the amazing weather forecast will come to fruition, blessing us with safe travels...

NOTE: Incredibly honoured and delighted to be one of the Top Three Featured Members at MUSE! Thank you so much! I'm also thrilled that my card was selected as Joyce's Honourable Mention favourite over at CASology! Another THANK YOU!  My little puzzle pieces are beaming with joy!

Thank you for spending some time with me; your visit brings me joy!

Brilliant, to interpret Michele's card that way! No music ? Well I did not read the instructions and made something up after the fact. At least you spare us the guessing game - I suck at that....

Fabulous card...loving those puzzle pieces. It's raining cats and dogs here...again!!!! How about with you?..snow? Hugs xx

I think you did a spectacular job on your card and it passes any and all tests in my book! :) Those puzzle pieces sure are fun. Great way to use them. I really like the glittery hearts, too. Whooo hoooo to a much deserved break. I hope you enjoy every single second. I watched the Super Bowl and was thrilled with the end result! The commercials? I didn't enjoy those near as much as I'd hoped to. Ah well, that's okay. I didn't get any handwork done, though, as I was too busy actually watching the game this time. Hee, hee! I hope you have a fantastic week. Thank you SO much for your kind and encouraging comments on my blog. You are so very sweet! Hugs!

Clean and simply sa-weet! Red, white & black is definitely one of the most dynamic color combos! Love how you tucked the sentiment between the puzzle pieces!

We watched and love the game ,but my teams were not playing and not that into the commercials so I went in the craft room too. I had the game on .
Love this fun puzzle card too cute, Caro... with the missing piece.

Tracey McNeely said...

The glitter paper puzzle pieces were a brilliant idea Carol! I am not a big football fan but the game was on, I love the half time show and I like to watch and pretend I understand what is going on! Thank you for joining us last week at CASology and Muse!

One of the advantages of visiting late is that I can congratulate you on your Top Three at Muse and HM at CASology :) Well done, and well deserved!

Bobby said...

I'm rather late to the party but I had to comment on your Favorite Card honor at Muse, Carol. This puzzle is such a cute idea and fits in with the muse card, with or without an accompanying song. I guess you could have used "I fall to pieces" as your lyric. ;)
