Happy Birthday Andrew!

Mornin' hens!  Today is my nephew Andrew's 11th birthday.  Wow, where did the time go?  Seems like only yesterday he was just a baby.  Good grief, I'm OLD!! Ok enough of that...  Let's talk funny.  OMG!  Is this image a hoot or what?  SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!  I saw this image over at Squigglefly and went crazy over it.  You know some illustrators just have the talent of making a CUTE face and some, well.....  don't.  Well, the illustrator of these cows, NAILED IT!  Would you get a load of those eyes and nostrils.  OMG, it's the BEST!  I even love how they made the holes look 3D.  You currently get FOUR cows in this cow pack for $3!!  Uh-huh, four for $3.  Can't beat that!  Usually that's the price of one digital image.  Now hold on, let me finish before you rush off!  LOL!


I printed the image onto some Neenah Classic Crest CS and colored her with my Copics.  Then I cut her out and adhered her to this MME DP called "Garden Party" and stitched around the edges.  I matted the DP using my Perfect Layers tool and added a few baubles for some interest.  I originally had a bubbly bow tied with the saddle stitched ribbon but it was just too overpowering so I changed it to some Baker's Twine and a button.  Ahhh, much better!  I printed the sentiment from my computer and there ya have it!  Ok, now run on over to Squigglefly and get your cow patty, uh I mean cow pack!  Tee-hee!  Look out! It's a STAMPEDE!  Have a great day! 

Supplies:
Digital Image - Squigglefly; Copics; DP - My Minds Eye (Garden Party); CS - Stampin Up Early Expresso; Glossy Accents; Baubles; Button; Baker's Twine; Perfect Layers matting tool

  4. O.K. last time you posted a card using the Holy Cow I popped right over and got me some fun, too! Love this card. I like the twine and button. Especially fro a guys card. For some reason they get all offended with RIBBONS on cads. LOL. Have a fun weekend, hugs....

  6. Hi Jeanie, I also print on Neenah CS. May I ask what kind if printer you use? I have been through a couple HP's and it does not like the CS. It's hit or miss if it feeds the paper or not.
