Four Pieces of Pie for Five People

Hi, everyone! Happy Saturday!

Sybrina here with a quick reminder from the W2CB gals that there's still time to play along with our May/June Challenge. Our words for this month are:

 A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, 
promptly announces she never did care for pie.

Since Mother's Day has passed, maybe a less literal interpretation might work. The card below is a birthday card from a former manager of mine at work who always had my back. And, scallops always remind me of pie... and flowers. Two of my favorite things!  LOL

The challenge is open until the first Wednesday of June, which is June 1. There is a Guest I-Teamer spot up for grabs, as well as a $10 MFT gift certificate.

Can't wait to see how you interpret this month's words!

W2CB #29: Four Pieces of Pie for Five People

Hi, everyone! Sybrina here with our May/June Words 2 Craft By challenge.


This month, we are inspired by the following Tenneva Jordan definition of motherhood.

 A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, 
promptly announces she never did care for pie.

Even though our challenge is posting a few days after Mother's Day 2016, we couldn't resist selecting this part humorous, part whimsical, part poignant, all-parts true observation about what it means to be a mom.


Let's see how what the W2CB Inspiration Team created. We are thrilled to welcome Kristie Marcotte as this month's Guest I-Teamer. Thanks so much for joining us, Kristie!

So, how do these words inspire you?

  • Maybe you'll be inspired to make a just-because something special for mom. 
  • Or, maybe you'll make a thank you card/gift for a special friend who always goes that extra mile. 
  • Then again, maybe you just love pie and that serves as your creative jumping off point.  :)

Whatever the inspiration, we hope you'll share your card/project with us. A Guest I-Teamer invitation and a $10 gift certificate to My Favorite Things will be awarded to the winning entry. The challenge is open for three weeks and closes June 1.
