First I like your I spy and green entries a lot...very graphic...this weeks reminds me of one of these a senior girl in the class made for me...and under every panel was a comment like "nice sweater"...and "looking good in that sweater"...and my favorite "great sweater, really"...of course it was pure sarcasm since they made fun of it the entire day...
I remember playing with these fortune tellers when I was a child.
Not beautiful ones like this, we just scribbled on note paper (with the lines on it) and folded it up. I think I can remember to this day how to fold it.
Oh this is soo cool! I love that you thought to use this (what seems to be) universal child's play to illustrate "fortune". And you've done it beautifully! I think you may be picked for Illustration of the Week for this! I just love it!
This is great design. I never would have thought of drawing one of these for fortune, but it is perfect. Love the colors, and simple graphic shapes of your last two posts!
Thank you all for your wonderful comments! Here in Portugal this is called : Quantos Queres.. as in cuantos quieres or how many do you want..I hear it's also saca piojos and comecocos..so cool so hear it in different languages! thank you*

Cool I remember those.
Nice work.
Very cool and lovely, I might add. I truly like what you did with this. Nice color and blending. Reminds me of being a kid again. Beautiful!
What a great take on "fortune"! Beautifully illustrated. The color, the white space, everything.

Bueno, ya he publicado mi trabajo para el tema de esta semana. Espero que te guste. Un saludo.

I used to hold so much weight and value in this game when I was young, it still make me warm and fuzzy to this this. Nice work!

We used to make these and call them "cootie catchers" - when they served that function. Brilliant idea! Beautiful illustration. Well done!

YOu reminded of a childhood game I used to play!! Fun illo!!
excellent image, for some reason we used to call them chinese fortunes, as far as I remember.
Elegant image with hints of possibility. Fascinating the resonance this has with people from so many different places.
Fun concept! I remember playing that game as a kid.
Nice! I remember folding these and playing it with friends in grade school! Good stuff!

Nice work! Now I want to see if I can remember how to fold one of these!
