I made an explosion card for my mom for her anniversary and wanted to use "ewe" and "moo" in it, after browsing the gallery. I stamped the barn on Cranberry Crisp cardstock and also on Going Grey cardstock with basic black ink so I could get the different colors. I cut out the upper window and glued in raffia for hay, then cut the doors open and glued a piece of black cardstock behind both openings. I used the Farmyard Jumbo wheel and wheeled it 2 times so I could cut out the sheep and the cow and use pop dots for dimension. I cut the sun out and placed it in the sky. I stamped the Chicken Wire background on a window sheet with black Staz-on. The background paper is from the retired Timeworn DSP. The frame was stamped with basic brown ink on chocolate chip cardstock and raised. I used the first set of In Colors for most of it, watercoloring with a blender pen. The inside says "Happy Anniversary to Ewe and Moo!". I grew up on a dairy farm...lol.
