Every dozen years the Topzwellers poked their heads through the loamy soil near the entrance to the baseball park. As Liane had turned 12 during the last phase, it was her first time as lookout.
Nervously, she looked to her left which caused her left eyeball to pop out of her head. It was like a turn signal or if she wasn’t moving, like a zoom lens.
When she saw that the target was already in place and all systems were GO, her little arms locked into the straight position, fingers splayed, and her underbelly turned yellow.
Keeping her position trained on the target, Liane gingerly touched each of the others with her tail, a signal that they could emerge. She knew that when they were all in position, this would be the greatest night of her life.

... and then what happened - did it all go to plan???? Was it the greatest day of her life?? Can't wait to hear, Darnell.
What a fun and slightly other-worldly card too.

Love the story with your very cute card. I love Edgar( I named him, hope you don’t mind) is right to be cautious and being near mushrooms is a good idea. Love the colours and how you created the images.
Another darling collaboration!

Loving the story - and the design to go with is so appropriate. Anxious to read what is next.
Too fun!! What a hoot...I agree, you two should do a book about Liane. Hugs to you, Darnell.

Fancy leaving us with a cliff hanger Darnell, can't wait to hear the next episode, and love Cornelia's great illustration. x
You and Cornelia should put together a book, my friend! BTW, thanks for the beautiful Spring card. If it keeps raining I'm going to need to find a pair of boots like this, except a little bigger! mwah!
Fun, clever and suspenseful story, Dolly! Love Cornelia's colorful artsy illustrations! Is there a book in your future? Hugs...Nancy
What a fun story! You never cease to amaze! Hugs. Sharyn
That Liane is a daring one! While she does have her own brand of super powers (that popping eyeball, for example), she still needs to be mindful of the mushrooms that grow in the woods. While beautiful to look at, they can be deadly.
Oh, stop! This was hilarious, Darnell! I know Rich wonders what could be so funny about a stamping blog... I laughed out loud. Tee hee hee hee!
Brilliant story Darnell... can't wait for the next episode xx
Love it! Can't wait to hear what happens next xx
Love it! And that eyeball 😃😃😃. Intrigued to hear what’s coming next. Love this new series Darnell! Xx
