April Fools a day late and an April class sneak peek!

An April Fools prank on April 2nd isn't very funny, but I couldn't share this with you yesterday because it would have ruined the surprise!!

On the first Wednesday of the month, I attend a stamp club hosted by my friend Janice. Each month when we arrive, we do a card swap. Well........this year our stamp night landed on April Fools. I mean come on! How often does that happen?! And to make things better, there happens to be two other gals in the group who are JUST as mischievous as me! They contacted me a couple of weeks ago and asked if I wanted to join with them and make hideous cards for our swap. Heck yeah!!

Brace yourselves.......I really think the giant feather gives it that *WOW* factor, don't you think?! Yes, I have a giant bag of dyed feathers - don't ask.

Here are all my little beauties on their way to get swapped...
Okay, so after the laughter died down, we handed out our REAL swap cards.
This was mine...
As you can see, I decided to stick with the bird theme, however I decided to use cardstock instead of construction paper on these *insert evil grin here*.
This little cutie and all of the other images are from the Kim Hughes U R A Hoot collection.
This was Wanda's April Fool's swap....

And this was her REAL swap....

This was Katrina's April Fool's swap....
And this was her REAL swap....

Still with me?
Here's a little peek at one of the cards we'll be making in my class this weekend.
For this one, we'll be using SU's "Animal Crackers" and a sentiment from "Full of Life".

Thanks for coming by!
See ya tomorrow...

Now THAT is funny! Sad thing is, when I saw your card, I thought, hey that's kinda cute (minus the color combo)! LOL. Maybe I shouldn't say that out loud. I'm glad the one you pointed out as Katrina's joke card was a joke bc that one was BAD! :-) The real cards are just beautiful tho!
