We finally made it to Tosh's California dairy farm and none toooo soon!!! Claire is wearing her bikini top so she can get a little suntan before the beauty contest....She is really going to show up all those western cows, for sure....she will do Texas proud!!!! All the images are from Clear Dollar Stamps My Little Barnyard, the ribbon is from Michael's, and the paper from Hobby Lobby. TFL and now back to the tea party (the Mothermark's Tea Pot Tuesday Challenge, that is)...I brought apple pie!!!

oh gosh this is just adorable. That cow with the bikini top puts all the others to shame - shame on them for appearing at a tea party wearing nothing but a hat ...
I love your colors and your distressing and country feel - darling card!

This is as American as apple pie and just as cute as cute can be! I have one question though: why is she wearing a bikini top but not her bottoms? She'll get thrown out for indecent exposure! LOL!

Oh yeah! Leave it to you Joan to bring a cow in a skimpy bathing suit top to get the attention of the judges! Well, Alicia is at the mall, trying to find a new outfit so maybe Clare will be one upped when she gets back!!
Your card is so cute! I love the little scene you created! Your card is precious but lemme tell ya girl, Clare is going home dissappointed today!
Vote for Alicia and never mind what Bertie says! Thanks for coming Joan..I love that you are here!
PS! All the other cows are serving up spoilt milk....all except for Alica!!! Beware!

OH my gosh Joan this is so cute. I love the roughed up paper, the ribbon and the scene you created. I feel like I am back home except our cows don't wear that attire. Gets the bulls too excited and then the cows never get any rest...Hehe..Great job.

I love your cows swim suit - it is so California. The torn paper is so smart (I should have done that)! Great farm scene. Make sure and save me a piece of pie before any of those cows eat it (cows can scarf down some apple pie fast - at least they eat apples faster than I can put them in my hand). I just need a little piece, please.

Well Claire is really cute, but she has it backwards! In CA, they wear the bottoms of their bikinis and leave the tops off! That way, they advertise for their plastic surgeons! Very cute scene and layout. I guess Claire actually might have won some points with the judges for her Texas charm!
