Well... follow the sneak peek, in any case!
Guys and Dolls fans will now be humming irrepressibly as they go (apologies for that), but the rest of you are invited to hop over to The Artistic Stamper, free of earworms, to see the folded tag that's over there for your delectation.
(Sorry, I've written quite a lot of posts in a row now, trying to clear the decks in order to do my tax return - aaaaagh!! - and I think I'm losing it slightly!)
I think I'd better call it a day, and just leave you to be tempted over to see what unfolds (again, sorry!) over at the Artistic Stamper Creative Team Blog... hope you have fun!
You gotta know when to hold'em
Know when to fold'em
Know when to walk away
Know when to run
From The Gambler by Kenny Rogers
(Just in case the first earworm didn't get you. I really think it's time for me to go now... I know when to run!)

Well, Alison, long ago when I was a young Drama teacher, I directed a production of 'Guys and Dolls' and every one of those songs has a place in my heart! It's a great show with some amazing numbers, so don't worry, it's not so much an earworm for me as a happy memory of some great kids acting and singing and having lots of fun! Now I think I'm losing myself down Memory Lane so I'll nip over to see what you've been up to! Julie Ann xxx
Two Magpies in a row, :O). Gorgeous, love it all ready, going to see it now.. ((( BIG HUGS )))
WHAAAA< you must be tired, ah bless, I could find the post I'll try tomorrow, get a good rest, busiest woman in blog land,^-^ ((( BIG HUGS )))
Tons of work on your project but full of georgeousness:-) xxx
Good luck with the tax thingy. ;) Fab sneak peeks. The full reveal is even more wonderful!
Such a foresty ish (?) card for your Mom. Lovely greens and wonderful stamping. Great idea tucking the flap under the metal foliage. Any Mom would be thrilled to receive a card made with love like this. Happy Birthday to her. Sounds like you deserve a rest!
So very pretty Alison! Lovin' all the shimmery goodness!
Beautiful sneak peeks, Alison. I love how you create your art.
Thanks for your kind visit!
Have a wonderful weekend!

A beautiful card for your Mum, I bet she loved it.

I can't imagine from where this fantastic pieces are all coming ... not just from your brain and your hands - directly from the heart I believe!
I love Kenny Rogers and I love this beautiful creation for your Mum. Anne x
Just been over, LOVE the colours!
Aaargh! You got me there with Kenny Rogers! I'll be singing that all day now. Love the tag though - gorgeous colours. Bet you don't have half as much fun with the old tax return LOL. Margie x
Oh what a great clip. Love that song....going to look at my card now (though I can see it on the mantelpiece :-))
This looks lovely, I'm on my way over. Have a great weekend (inspite of the tax return) Sue xx
Hi Alison, wonderful card, your mom will be very happy! I love green and metal flowers and the inside is just magnificent!
I have just spent the most wonderful amount of time scrolling up and down and back again, looking at the glorious colors in your posts and the incredible photographs of the closeups and all the tiny little details. My eyes are dancing at the way you create and truly drive my hands and mind to want to create. I knew starting off the morning with you and coffee would be the perfect combination. :)
Have a truly wonderful weekend Alison and hugs to you.

Hi Alison,
I'm slowly but surely making my way to everyone's blog. It's Saturday morning. I have my second cup of coffee and I am settled back to enjoy one of my favorite blogs. Hope you are having a great weekend!
Love this card. What a brilliant idea to use the lower foliage as a closure! Fabulous colors too (the blue patina is such a wonderful shimmery addition. Katy's large flower and Tim's flourish are the perfect backdrop for your sentiment to your mom :) This combination of words and pictures truly made me smile. -- Mary Elizabeth
Great sneak peak... off to see more.
Ear worms? LOL!
Even when tired and stressed, you still manage to bring a WOW! Factor to your projects. Lovely work!
Had a proper prak and it looks gorgeous.
What a post! All that fab art to drool over. I saw you won something but can't remember where, sorry for that, but congrats
Just popped back from looking and wow. Everything looks beautiful when closed but when opened it just cries Spring is on the way. Fabulous stamped detail
Warm crafty hugs from Shirl x x
Hello warmer days! This is beautiful in and out!
Oh, I love this! How smart to use the lovely metal flowers as the closure, and I love the hiding bug!
Thanks also for the education on earworms. One of my dearest friends is notorious for giving them to me and now I know what to call them!
Wow wow wow absolutely gorgeous stunning folded tag. I really loved the colours you used and the stamping is awesome :-) Kezzy xxx
