What a fun project today! I chose to take a photo of the card open. That way you can see the front and inside in one take. I was inspired by a long ago friend who before going anywhere would always say "she had to put her face on first". Trust me, she wasn't kidding. She really did need to put her makeup on! Even DH saw her without it and was amazed! Anyway, I just got this new to be release Jan 1st set from Clear Dollar Stamps. It has this darling cow with out it's markings, plus is has the markings in case you want to stamp them in. So this worked perfectly for me today.
For the front of my card, I dolled up my Miss Cow for an out on the town fun time. Using re-inkers, I put on blue eye liner, blushed her cheeks, painted her fake hoofs and put on a pearl necklace with earrings. I'm now a makeup wearing type person, so I might not have got this stuff on right! DD wasn't here to advise me! She is up snowboarding with DH.
Now the inside is more me........once Miss Cow returns home ......it all comes off! So I hung up her spots on a red brad, took off her fake red hoofs and pearls. Ah yes, here is the best part, she is having herself a little snack! Total relaxation! Only difference here is I wouldn't have any "stuff" to be taking off and I would go straight to my stamping table to maybe create something like this card........with my snack!!!........and maybe a beer! I mean glass of water! lol
Well I hope you have enjoyed my little story and my card............TFL :0)

Nutmeg, just look at that ribbon! Whoa, did you ever do a great job with that, and, speaking of great, this card is just fabulous. I so love your humor filled creativity. This is just so special and so spectacular. Tell Sis she cant have this one: I'm buying it!
