Guess what? No ladybugs today. BUT I have still ran into a few more of them. They are just everywhere! I never realized I had so many ladybug stamps and things. Oh well, on to this card.....
Today we were to use opposites. Here is a list of mine:
Oldest stamp: It is from Vap! Scrap-cow. Maybe not my oldest stamp, but I have had it a very long time.
Newest tool: This is the tree punch. My Sister sent it to me. I must confess, I just figured out the right way to use the punched image. I kept putting the trees up-side down and couldn't figure out what they were even tho I knew they were trees! LOL Guess it is the Polish in me coming out. That happens sometimes. hehe
Favorite color combo: Well, I like so many, but anything with black and kraft are fine with me. Today I used pink.
Least Favorite embellishment: I would have to say the sentiment is my least favorite thing, mainly because I don't know what to say. That is why I have boxes of my made cards because I can't figure out what to put on the in-side before I send them out. Plus embellishments themselves give me a hard time. BUT I'm getting better, especially since my sister directed me to the bow easy thing.
Well that's my list. For this card I used two stamps, one cloud stencil and tree punch. Did some masking, sponging, and doodling. Layered with my favorite colors for today and added the sentiment on an embellishment, plus an extra embellishment on the bottom.
Hope you like this.....TFL :0)

Cathy, this is adorable. I love your little cow. Is that the cow that jumped over the moon? I love your little punched trees. The clouds look awesome my friend. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Really cute , Kathy....... or is it Cathy? I think I'll stick with Mutnik!!!LOL!! Love your cow IN the moon!! Fabulously done!! I agree with you.... I really never put a sentiment on my cards either because it ruins my layout, though my layouts are very simple!!;) and I don't know what to say! Great card! Love it!

OH NO, polish thing, are you a blonde head? blame it on that if you are. LOL. I think this is just too cute. I have no trouble with sentiments on the outside, it is the inside I struggle with and my handwriting is no where near neat enough.

This is wonderful, Cathy!!! Wonderful scene design and coloring!!! The sentiment...hmmm. Yeah, I totally could see that especially if it does not fit anywhere on the card. The MOO looks great here, though!!!

Oh how funny, Cathy! I have a lot of those Vap Scraps but not this one. I'm wondering if you heard the nursery rhyme wrong. I thought it was cow jumped OVER the moon or man IN the moon. Cow in the moon is a new one on me, lol. Hey, moo back at ya!
