Today's challenge gave me an opportunity to combine my two passions. First and foremost, dairy goats are my passion. They have been a part of my life as far as I can remember, and always will be. I never thought that I would be able to stamp and incorporate goats - so thank you for inspiring me to dig out a couple of stamps I purchased years ago!
My goats enjoy the comforts of pasture every day. And, they are continually trimming my trees for me... so I thought this setting was ideal for them.
This card uses Welcome Neighbor DSP, the stamps came from a supply company called Caprine Supply. The brown goat is a Nubian and the white goat is a Saanen. The Nubian has her rear foot in the silver glittered milk pail.
I think this card may go to my local vet who has done such great work for us. I would be happy to answer any other goat related questions! If you would like to check out our farm website: http://fsfgoats.com.
What do you think? Thanks for looking!

What a wonderful card for you to show us your other "love"! Wonderful goat stamps and how you told a little story about them with your scene. I love the sparkly pail. I've always thought goats had a lot of personality. They are always a favorite at my city's "Childrens' ZOO" within the big zoo.
