This is for my youngest son's birthday. He raises chickens, loves wine and is part of our new adventure of raising pigs (not the brightest thing we ever did). The odds of making a card with pigs, chickens and wine were not very promising. Found them on Faith Skrdla's site "From the Heart." I combined the images in Photoshop, colored with copics and a bit of pencil. The sentiment is Faith's also. Thanks for stopping by.

Fun card and fun sentiment Nancy... Love how you combined all of the images to make it perfect for your son... This would also work for my sister if you added a bunch of goats and maybe a donkey.... Hugs my dear

I just don't have enough adjectives to describe how spectacular this card is. Your coloring, especially on the pig, is amazing. The creativity to put all of your son's diverse interests into one funny image is fabulous. Every time you drop another little personal tid bit (raising pigs?) I am more convinced that you would be the coolest person to live near. Into my favs.
