These cards are for Teapot Tuesday. This week we are to bring 2 cards with no fancy doo-dads, no embellishments, no flowers, no brads, no ribbon, no pop-ups, no special folds, limited layering. Just quick, just cute, just fast.
Well all I can say is, easier said than done. No inspiration from the story today – zip, nada, none. So off I head to Michael’s thinking maybe inspiration will strike there. No inspiration there either, though I did buy the cow stamp.
Back home, had breakfast & an idea or two. Funny how food seems to help. Played around a bit on the computer; (ok, it took some time for me to get the sentiments just where I wanted them); printed out the sentiments; stamped, embossed & colored the critters; mounted on card stock. There, done.

Tee Hee Vicky Dee! Hey, you won't be at all disappointed you bought that cow stamp!!! Rumor has it that Alicia, Curt and Moe have lots and lots more kin back at the dairy farm that want new careers! Yikes.....we are beginning to do cows quite often! Good investment girlfriend!
These cards are pretty darn special! You do no inspiration good! Tee Hee Vicky Dee! Your computer sentiments rock! Thanks so much for making them.....they are awesome, fun and so appropriate! Whoo Hoo!
PS....those pink hangy down thingys aren't supposed to be on a bull are they??? I had a lesson in cow parts once from Sumtoy but I deleted it accidently!!!!

I see you joined the ranks of those who made pink and blue cards! Wow, am I ever embarrassed now. I'm getting too familiar with coming in through the back door. you followed Mudder's directions to a T. These are just adorable.
