it's Kate's turn to choose the challenge and she's singing that nursery rhyme (which was an absolute favourite around here) "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" which just means she wants to see projects with farm animals. Yee-haw!
This is what I did....
Stamps are from Your Next Stamp as is the grass die. Fence dies are from MFT. I really wish I would have taken the photo with the card laying flat though, even though I generally don't like the way that looks. But, if I had done that I could have made those googly eyes point every which way, which is kinda the whole point of googly eyes. In this photo they do appear to be earnestly wishing the Birthday Person a happy day, so that's pretty good too, I guess.
I love these bold, cartoony farm animals. Well, maybe not that cartoony really. I do believe I might have found the real life inspiration for these animals so maybe I shouldn't be calling them cartoony....
Why not give our challenge a go this week and head on over to Little Red Wagon and link up? And, while you're there, be sure to check out the wonderful projects the other Girlfriends have created.

ReplyDeleteHA HA HA!!! This one just cracks me up; all those googly eyes made me smile. That was a very smart idea and one I'll have to remember. Great card! Yep, whatever that real life creature is, he/she looks quite happy...or pissed, depending on how you look at it.
