Here is my take on the Blintz Base Challenge, try something new. I stopped by the craft store and picked up a couple pieces of dp. Since the ones I got were only one sided, I cut the tiny triangles and glued them on after I made my folds. So it looks like double sided paper.....Maybe I shouldn't have shared this info and no one would be the wiser. oops!
Anyway, stamped my cow on w/c paper, colored with re-inkers, versa marked and clear eb'd. I did this twice so I could layer the head and tail. I then sponged bashful blue around the cow and glued this inside the blintz.
Put this square onto a gold linen square and doodled edges. Stamped and clear eb'd the MOO, cut out with word punch. Put it all on a red card. Just realized I didn't do my usual sponging on the edges every where except around the cow.....how odd.
Decided I needed some typed of border, so I took my paint brush and hand painted the black and white squares. What do you think? ..........TFL :0)

You should have kept it zipped Cathy, I would never have known LOL! The paper is gorgeous, the heart patched cow is very cute, love it, my goodness all that embossing work and of course your signature edging, love that too. WOT NO SPONGING, but I think your inner self told you not to. It's a fantastic card! I don't know what Ms. Ryan is on about, did you see her yesterday card? ARE YOU ALL FORGETTING THAT I WANT THIS CARD TOO? I'll bid on the strength of three more stamp sales today (YIPEE)? Connie Jo, you're going to have to come up with something better, you know Anne is loaded, she must be to have so many people!
