This card was created for Mothermark's Teapot Tuesday Challenge. You have GOT to go visit Cindy's blog and check out the challenge. http://mothermark.blogspot.com/
This week we are honoring Alicia the cow that lives in California. Alicia is trying out for the title of California Cow.
Cindy has a sweet friend Tosh (Stamps4funinCA) that lives in CA on a cow farm. We are going to visit her. I hope she can handle all these wild tea party attendees. I also hope she lets us milk a few cows while we are there. Hope Sabrina and Carla can stand the smell. May want to bring your gloves girls.
This is a Mutnik original. Isn't it adorable. I begged Cindy to feature a cow teapot so I could get this sweet image onto a card.
I am missing my childhood cow farm. This brings back sweet cow pasture memories (so glad my dad doesn't know about all of them) ...Come join the fun. Thanks Cindy for obliging me...

Thanks for suggesting the cows, lovely card. And when I was thinking of which color to put with my black/white card I thought red. Where did you get that ribbon????

So THAT's why you wanted to go down on the farm this week. With not only a darling image, but look at your perfect paper and ribbons too. Hey, how come I only remembered now I had some cow print paper when I see yours!! Love those big eyes - here's to you, Alicia.
