This is my first card to post. It took a lot of masking as you can see. The balloons are tied to the tail of the cow and the balloons and the cow are on demensionals( I always use foam cut from the stamps. It is firmer and I don't have to be skimpy with it). I stuck the top of the thread between the dimensional and the balloon so that the balloon strings are standing out from the card. I watercolored the cow's spots with a paint brush and black ink pad. The inside has one cow and says "Have a MOOvelous Year". Love this set!

Very nice! Love this idea...I have this set and never thought to stamp more than one of any of the animals. The balloons tied to the tail are really cute too.

WOW! how creative!! I think this is just the cutest card! I absolutely love it. I've been resisting getting this stamp set but that is becoming too pointless with all of the amazing cards you all are making with it! And congrats on your first post! Can't wait to see lots more!

Thank you for all the encouraging comments! Just might send in another one soon......using the same stamp set and it is entitled "dirty pig on the farm". BTW...I have been selling my cards to friends and my husband's co-workers. I have been getting $4.25 for this card. My price range is $3.25 to $4.25 for my cards. I was able to raise around $400 to help my daughter buy her most recent violin.
