Crazy weather here lately! I had hoped to get this posted sooner, but we had a tornado warning last night and no power :( This card was made for my nephew who lives on (and loves) the farm! Create-a-critter is definitely one of my favorite cartridges. If you are looking for a cartridge to purchase, it is a must have!
This is a standard A2 size card. All of the cardstock is from The Paper Studio. The grassy hill (in the background), I cut by hand and then ran it through my Cuttlebug in my swiss dots folder. Everything else on the card is cut from Create-a-Critter. The swirls on the clouds were created with my d'vine swirls Cuttlebug folder. This was my first time doodling with the white gel pen! I think it turned out cute though. I also used a silver metallic Sharpie on the roof of the barn to make it look like metal. Of course there is a bit (or a bunch) of sparkle. The glitter is a mix of craft glitter glue from Wal-mart (clouds & grass), the Target dollar spot (cow horns) and Stickles (cow spots).
The cuts (all from Create-a-Critter):
* Barn & Cow cut at 2"
* Clouds cut at 1", 1.25" & 1.5"
* Grass (inside and outside) cut at 1"
* Happy Birthday cut at 1.75"

I'm also entering it in the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Me Monday Challenge

Love this card! :o) The cow is precious and you know I love all the sparkle. This is so hilarious because last night you mentioned how similar we are... and yesterday I literally planned to d'vine-swirl-sparklify clouds in a new card. I had to laugh! We have such exquisite taste. ;) Beautiful, happy card! :o)
Hugs and blessings! :o)
