Cow in the Pasture - Stampin' Up! Barnyard Babies

  The card for today is another that I made using bits and pieces that didn't make the cut for other projects but were to good to just toss.  To see another 'bits and pieces' card check out yesterday's Clean and Simple Bike Ride.

  The Barnyard Babies stamp set was the very first one on my wish list when the new catalog came out.  The sweet little animals are just so cute!

  For this card I had the panel with Pear Pizzazz square already stamped.  It's made with a clear block inked up with an ink pad and then stamped directly onto the cardstock.  I don't know why I had this piece; it must have been an idea that didn't work out for another project.  It was sitting on my desk for quite some time.  I stamped some grass with Old Olive ink to give some more detail.

  Next, I stamped and colored the cow with alcohol markers and cut her out with my trusty paper snips (seriously, if you don't have these you really need to get them! You can order them below just by clicking on the picture of the paper snips.  The same goes for the rest of the supplies to make this card).  I then popped her up on dimenionals onto her pasture.

  A little bit of embellishment in the way of Pear Pizzazz cotton ribbon, linen thread bow and the sentiment from One Big Meaning stamped in Early Espresso.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
