Paperback Writer!

Love1a

Okay ... second card today ... Are you impressed? I think you will be when you know that this card is my entry to not one but two challenges! That is three challenges all in one day!

The first challenge is the Sunday Stampers ... the theme this week is Paperback writer. I have used a Creative imaginations paper that looks like a page from a dictionary ... a paper backed one of course.

Do you know I only know two words from that song and they are Paperback and writer and they are driving me mad!Love1 If you would like to add some more lyrics into your comments ... I will be eternally grateful :0)

The second challenge is a sketch from the Pink Elephant challenge blog. The sketch was provided by the very talented Robin and was fun to do.

The heart is another Wendy Vecchi stamp ... which I love and I have coloured it using worn lipstick and tattered rose distress inks.

Well that's about it then ... nothing more to add ... that's why I don't normally post more than once in any one day ... because I can't think of anything to say ...

Paperback writer! Aargh!

Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?
It took me years to write, will you take a look?
It's based on a novel by a man named Lear
And I need a job, so I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer. :P

Your card is very pink... and yet I love it. It's a grungey pink so that makes it all good ;) I love the background text and the little charm.

Putting you out of your misery, here are the full lyrics

Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?
It took me years to write, will you take a look?
It's based on a novel by a man named Lear
And I need a job, so I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

It's the dirty story of a dirty man
And his clinging wife doesn't understand.
His son is working for the Daily Mail,
It's a steady job but he wants to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

Paperback writer (paperback writer)

It's a thousand pages, give or take a few,
I'll be writing more in a week or two.
I can make it longer if you like the style,
I can change it round and I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

If you really like it you can have the rights,
It could make a million for you overnight.
If you must return it, you can send it here
But I need a break and I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

Paperback writer (paperback writer)
