The Cat in the Hat Shat

My friend, Sam I am, 
I will not eat green eggs and ham.
Old chap, so I've been told
that green eggs mean icky mold.
 I will not eat them in my socks.
I will not eat them in box.
 Sam, you crazy fool,
I will not eat them by the pool.
 I do not like them, Sam I am,
I do not like green eggs and ham.
I will not share them with my cat.
I will not eat them in my hat.
Sam! You crazy dude,
I will not eat them in the nude!

The Fine Print: I made this card in a box. I made this card with a fox. Or more like it was three. We did not make it in a tree.  We made it with some stamps of rubber.  It was not hard; we did not blubber. The stamps by Stampin' Up were made.  This card did not leave us with nerves frayed.

Complete opposite of Lunch Lady Jan - I adore Dr Seuss, and yet your rhyme really hit the mark for me too!
The box card is pretty fabulous too!

LOL, you and Darnell both ca-rack me up with your words every day! This is a fabulous creation, but I have a question. Just exactly what did the fox say???

Love the box, but I will never make one. Ever. ;/

PS:
Lunch Lady Jan: I am shocked - SHOCKED - by your words. This is a classic book! 50 words! *covers ears*

Loving your gorgeous card in a box! I am hoping to make one for my DIL's birthday next month.

I hope you had a good Easter break!

Love Jules xx

Dr. Seuss! Eh. No opinion either way. You on the other hand could give him a run for his green eggs. Yuck. Green ham. Double yuck. When does your book come out? I want one.

Irish Cherokee said...

Sorry! Loved your take on DR. Seuss so much forgot to comment. Love your Card. Box cards are an amazement to me. Well done.

Cherie said...

Cute rhymes for a pretty card! I haven't worked up the nerve to make a box card yet, but yours is great.

I want to rhyme my comment, but I lack the ability at the moment (well, close. lol). I laughed SO MUCH reading this - the title rocks. And paired with this gorgeous box? Even funnier :)
