I found this stamped cow image in a box that I must have had for a decade or more. I'm pretty sure it's a Penny Black image but I was unable to verify that because it's probably been long retired. Either way it's a cute one and it's long overdue for being used! I made the background with some Sunny Studio papers and stenciled the clouds in with some Tumbled Glass ink. I colored the image with Copics and a black marker, adding color to the balloons with glaze pens. I was stumped for adding a sentiment, so I leaned on a good friend for suggestions and she gave me this one which was perfect! It was computer generated and snipped apart to fit on the image.
I'll share this with the following challenges:
The Retro Rubber challenge #206 - Tic Tac Toe
The Critter Crazy Challenge #74 - A/G featuring a critter
(Calling a cow a critter may be a stretch, but I'll enter anyway 😉)
the May Stencil Fun Challenge - A/G using a stencil *optional flowers
Thanks for stopping by and I hope your Wednesday is a great one!

Ok, I'm in love with this card Carol! First off, it has a cow on it. I love cows. Secondly, I love the background your created, it is so bright, cheerful and just plain fun. Then there is this scene you have created with this adorable cow and the sentiment is just perfect! I don't know who suggested this sentiment, but it is a great one! So love this card! Hugs, Brenda
