Creative carding!

This is the 'one of a kind' birthday banner that I had made especially for Flo's 99th birthday. These five men are Mom's favorites, and are guaranteed to prompt a smile. I also purchased five 'Lottery Quick Picks' and put one on each face using a post it note. Uncovering them one by one, her responses went something like this...
To Brian Williams: "Oh, that's Good Night, Sweetheart!"
To Adam Lambert: " What a beautiful face he has, and voice, too."
To Carmelo Anthony: " There's that smile I love...the Syracuse basketball star...Melo!"
To John O'Hurley: "What a handsome man he is!! I'd like him to give me some of his eyebrows!"
To Johnny Carson: " Oh, I watched him every night, even when I had to work the next day. There has never been anyone like him. He was the best!"
I love you to pieces is her favorite remark.
I guess the common link is the smile which brings on the sparkle in the eyes. A seasoned newscaster, a flamboyant singer, a good natured basketball player, a tall handsome game show host/ dancer, and her treasured nightly comedic entertainment. Here-e's, Johnny.
The lottery tickets pulled it together and quite appropriately for my mom. She has bought a quick pick or two in earlier years. [understatement!!]
Wouldn't it be wild if one of the lottery tickets turned out to be a winner!! I'd better check that out.
Who would be on your list of favorites?
