This is for SC114 On An Angle. I have seen so many cute cards done with the theme of Like No Udder and thought this would be a fun time to do one. I love this little cow. I stamped and masked the cows to create the little group and painted with caramel and basic brown reinkers and watercolor brush. I sponged the grass area with a dauber and old olive and then used a mini tipped applicator to apply the grassy texture. I sketched the little fence with my artist pen. I used my square scalloped punch to create the frame and my scalloped decorative scissors to create the border of the long layer. I used my rice baggie ( brown rice in a sandwich bag and pounced on the ink and then cardstock) to create the texture of on the brown layer. I doubt it can be seen on the scan.

Okay, I like the little white cow the best because he has the initiative to be different! Or maybe he just got to hit the bath tub first! Betcha cows can wallow in the mud!

Kittie, this is adorable. I wish I had gotten this set after seeing what you've done with it. We own a dairy and this card would be so appropriate for so many people I know. We have holsteins though, not jerseys;) Too, too cute!!!!!!!

I love this! I went through a 'cow-decorating' phase in the late 80s-early 90s, and I received so much cow stuff that I got 'udderly' sick of them! But this! This is enough to revive my bovine affection -- you don't know what a huge compliment that is!!!
