It IS an ATC card for the Ways to Use it Challenge, and I DID complete it in less than 30 minutes with scraps on my table for the Limited Supplies challenge...but it isn't exactly inspired by Mothermark's Teapot for her Tuesday challenge...you see, this week Mothermark went Green and had a teapot made out of wood and we drank from paper cups, and used pine boughs for stirrers...but when I arrived, I was told that MARILYNN wanted whipped cream and ice cream sundaes...so Mothermark said it was MY TURN to milk the cow since we weren't using items purchased from the local store...we were green, going green! HEY, whose turn was it LAST TIME? Or am I the first? Hmmmmm.....or should I say Hmmmmooo, hee! So I went looking and found this one just for MariLynn!

It would seem every time I click into your gallery I'm commenting on a card featuring animals . . . now this could be because you're a rural gal at heart, OR that I love animals, OR that you own a lot of very funky animal stamps. Cute, cute, cute.

Well, where are the hangy down thingys that the milk comes out of! I don't know much about milking cows but it seems to me you need some of those hangy down thingies.....I think this is a trick to get outa milking...

I love your card. Your story and some of the comments above gave me a real laugh - thanks for that!!!! Great background and even greater trees and as for the missing"hangy down thingys" I think they just shrunk and we can't see them - there were so many people at the party this week that that poor cow is empty from giving all that milk for all that ice cream.
