Getting together with other stampers is great - except for one thing...my need (ahem..wish) list gets BIGGER and BIGGER. Mandy and Shayla created adorable cards using the Funny Farm $1 stamps from Michaels. I was beside myself when our Michaels was sold out. Luckily, I found some at a Michaels in Pittsburgh today and created this card for the Shirleys2Girls Twisted Thursday challenge using the cow. Special thanks to Mandy and Shayla for the inspiration!!

This week's twist was to add piercing to the provided sketch, which I add to the top and bottom of one layer. I used Prismacolor watercolor pencils and a blender pen to create the background of the cow. The cow's head is also popped out.
Details:
Stamps - Studio G Cow (Michaels $1 Bin), Raindrop Backgroung (Hero Arts)
Paper - DCWV DP (Grade School stack); SU Real Red, Basic Black, Yoyo Yellow, white
Ink - SU Real Red, black
Accessories - Pop dots, Prismacolor watercolor pencils, paper piercer, black gingham ribbon
Thanks for stopping by!!

Oh this is too cute! I did manage to snag a few of these from M's... got the 2 sheep and the barn and a chicken... no cow. This is so fun and I love the bright fun colors! I might have to case this! Adorable!
Ok, Stephanie, that cow is adorable! I love how his little head is popped up too! What a great layout and use of colors! It's so much fun to craft with other crafters, isn't it? And yes, our wishlists get all that much longer when they're so talented!

we just had the Creating Keepsakes Convention here and that was both good and not so god for the wallet :).
Now this is about the cutest cow I've ever seen! Love this card. How fun and frolick-y for spring. Soooo cute!
