Holy Cow Birthday

Hey There - my second post today. I'm sharing a birthday card with some corny humor today.

   
I used the current Sketch Saturday sketch, resizing to 7x5 in my PSE program.

I made my card base from white Recollections 110# heavy card stock and I used all Prima's Sasha collection patterned papers. I die cut the hill with a Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside die and I cut the focal image using a Spellbinder Classic Deckled Oval Nestie die. I matted it with a Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Oval Nestie die. The sentiments are computer-generated. The cow is a Bugaboo digital stamp. The barn scene is a North Coast Creations rubber-stamped image.  Both are colored with Tombow water color markers. I used 2 white enamel dots in the top corner.

The inside sentiment was created by me in PSE. I told y'all there would be cornball humor. Milk it -- get it? heeheehee

For the back, I used another sheet of the Prima papers and scraps leftover from the front, with an EKSuccess stamped siggie.

I hope you liked my silly humored card - hey, it's a cheap laugh, right? And we all need to laugh more in my opinion! Thank you for visiting me and I hope your weekend brings you more laughter than your abs can handle. XOX
