The Outlawz : Sunday Songs & Rhymes Challenge

 

The New Songs & Rhymes challenge at The Outlawz has just started and this is my DT card, inspired by the rhyme:

The World Cup

The world's abuzz with soccer

Though I couldn't give a hoot.

I wouldn't even have a clue

For which team I should root.

The bars are packed with rousing fans;

I don't begrudge their cheers,

But I prefer a tennis match

To savor with my beers.

I'd also watch the Yankees play

'Cause baseball's what I know,

Though baseball-haters claim the game's

Inordinately slow.

So while the teams do battle

With the World Cup as the prize,

I'll find a book or other show

To occupy my eyes.

 

Our prize sponsor is 

  

who provided the image for my card.

 

I coloured the image with acohol markers and also used the following to create my card:

white CS card base / black CS tag background / twine / cord / the sentiment is my own, created in MS Word

Soft and sweet.
Tiny mouths,
Eyes still asleep.

Some have feathers
Some have fur
So brand new
They hardly stir.

Baby animals
Oh so small,
Come in spring.
We love them all!

The Outlawz Songs and Rhymes Challenge

 

Sunday's Songs and Rhymes challenge for the next fortnight has just started and we are sponsored by Sherry West Art.

 This is the poem we've chosen to inspire you

The Frog

BY HILAIRE BELLOC

Be kind and tender to the Frog,

   And do not call him names,

As ‘Slimy skin,’ or ‘Polly-wog,’

   Or likewise ‘Ugly James,’

Or ‘Gape-a-grin,’ or ‘Toad-gone-wrong,’   

   Or ‘Billy Bandy-knees’:

The Frog is justly sensitive

   To epithets like these.

No animal will more repay

   A treatment kind and fair;

At least so lonely people say

Who keep a frog (and, by the way,   

They are extremely rare).

The image on my DT card is Best Friends Boys

and it's coloured using alcohol markers

 I fussy cut the image and also added the following to create my card

white CS card base

blue and green stitched rectangle diecuts

5 blue buttons 

peel off sentiment

luv'n huggz
