so here are a few of the cards. i took photos of them all, but i can't fit any more into my image manager, so i picked out the best ones to put on here.
the pictures were the best i could get on limited time; i still have a lot of stuff to do for the party yet, but i figured i'd post these while i'm taking a short break.
so, without further ado &c, the cards.
from my mum's set:

(^ jukebox)

(^ pink poodle)

and from mike's mum's set:

(^ the record says:
ELVIS PRESLEY 'All Shook Up!')
this is a close-up of the 'hat' one before i wrote all over it:

i do always draw 'free-hand,' though it would've been much easier to find graphics on the comp and glue them on, rofl. wouldn't be as personal, though, i suppose.
i wish i would've taken pictures of all the cards prior to adding the writing, but eh, one learns . . .
hope everyone has a great hol and an excellent week (=
