What Does The Fox Say? Christmas Card Featuring Lyrics from The Fox Using CTMH Sparkle & Shine Paper

Hi all my fabulous crafting friends!  I am so excited!  I saw this song featured on "Dancing With The Stars Finale" this past Tuesday night and couldn't get the tune out of my head.  I didn't like it when I first heard it a few weeks ago; but it kind of grew on me.  It is a catchy little song; especially after you see the lyrics and understand what they are saying.  LOL!

 

I created this Christmas card using Mojo Monday's sketch; which I love.  After getting all the layers of paper completed on the front; I realized my little girl I planned on using wasn't going to work.  With this tune still in my head; I remembered I had purchased a little Christmas fox stamp in the dollar bin at Michaels a few weeks ago.  I decided to use it.  I looked up the lyrics and the YouTube video and decided to finish the card using the lyrics from this song.  I then created the sentiments and the border to go with the song.

 

If you haven't heard the song or watched the video; this card won't make any sense to you.  I hope you will take the time to watch the video.  It is only 3:45 min.  I have also included the lyrics; because it is hard to understand all the words.  I hope you enjoy it.  If not; maybe it will grow on you like it did me.  LOL!   

 

Here is my cute little fox Christmas card.  I hope you can see the silver embossing on front and the sentiment inside as well.  The silver embossing was hard to capture on the pictures.  I decided I would make mine a Silver fox rather than the red one mentioned in the song.  You know I had to be different.  I had a lot of fun creating this card.  I hope you have fun and enjoy it with me.

(What Does The Fox Say?) By Ylvis

 

Estimated Release Date For The Book is Dec. 10, 2013

The Fox Lyrics

"The Fox" was released on 9/5/2013.

By Ylvis

Dog goes woof
Cat goes meow
Bird goes tweet
and mouse goes squeek

Cow goes moo
Frog goes croak
and the elephant goes toot

Ducks say quack
and fish go blub
and the seal goes ow ow ow ow ow

But theres one sound
That no one knows
What does the fox say?

Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!
Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!
Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!
What the fox say?

Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!
Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!
Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!
What the fox say?

Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!
Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!
Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!
What the fox say?

Joff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!
Tchoff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!
Joff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!
What the fox say?

Big blue eyes
Pointy nose
Chasing mice
and digging holes

Tiny paws
Up the hill
Suddenly youre standing still

Your fur is red
So beautiful
Like an angel in disguise

But if you meet
a friendly horse
Will you communicate by
mo-o-o-o-orse?
mo-o-o-o-orse?
mo-o-o-o-orse?

How will you speak to that
ho-o-o-o-orse?
ho-o-o-o-orse?
ho-o-o-o-orse?
What does the fox say?

Jacha-chacha-chacha-chow!
Chacha-chacha-chacha-chow!
Chacha-chacha-chacha-chow!
What the fox say?

Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!
Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!
Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!
What the fox say?

A-hee-ahee ha-hee!
A-hee-ahee ha-hee!
A-hee-ahee ha-hee!
What the fox say?

A-oo-oo-oo-ooo!
Woo-oo-oo-ooo!
What does the fox say?

The secret of the fox
Ancient mystery
Somewhere deep in the woods
I know youre hiding
What is your sound?
Will we ever know?
Will always be a mystery
What do you say?

Youre my guardian angel
Hiding in the woods
What is your sound?

(Fox Sings)
Wa-wa-way-do Wub-wid-bid-dum-way-do Wa-wa-way-do

Will we ever know?

(Fox Sings)
Bay-budabud-dum-bam

I want to

(Fox sings)
Mama-dum-day-do

I want to
I want to know!

(Fox sings)
Abay-ba-da bum-bum bay-do

Male Birthday Card - 16th Birthday Using Cricut Artiste Cartridge

Hi to all my fabulous readers/followers.  I had a good day today.  I actually rode my bicycle outside for about 45 min.  It was a gorgeous day, sunny, although a little windy; but warm.  So nice to see the leaves changing on so many trees.  I love the fall and all the gorgeous colors of the leaves.  I hope you are having a good day today; as well. 

It is such a wonderful time of year to be grateful.  I hope everyone has a fabulous Holiday season.  Remember, take time to thank someone for being a part of your life.  Take time to stop and enjoy the scenery; whether it be snow, rain, whatever you have in front of you.  Just appreciate it and be grateful for everything/everyone you have in your life.  We don't know how long any of us will be here; so make sure you tell the important people in your life how much you love them and how much they mean to you.  Enjoy every minute you have together; as it is a blessing.

I created this card for my grandson; who will be 16 yrs. old in December.  I used the sketch at Simon Says Stamp.  I love to use sketches; but haven't used them for a while.  I hope you enjoy my card.

Anniversary Card Using Whimsy Stamps Spread Love and Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge

Hi all of you beautiful people!  I hope you are having a nice weekend.  It is cool here for a change in Southern CA.  I think it is probably colder everywhere else; so we are luckier than others.  Try to stay warm and safe in the winter weather.  I am still feeling on the blah side; having been sick for most of this week.  I keep hoping I will feel normal again some day; but not today. 

I created a card for my daughter and her husband for their 15th anniversary.  I have purchased several Whimsy stamps over the past year and have only used one or two of them.  I decided it was time to get them out and try using them.  They are so cute that I couldn't resist buying them.  I don't feel I am very good at coloring them; so I hesitate to use them.  If they were pre-colored; I would be using them all the time.  LOL!.

I pulled the heart out so you could read it; but it is tucked behind the card image; which really adds to the look of the card.  I really wanted to get away from pinks and purples for this card and do something different than the traditional pinks and reds with hearts. 

Card without the heart.

Little heart that is tucked in behind the image.
