fun,fun,fun, ANNE!!! Thanks for this delightful inspiration challenge! It was a no brainer for me which cow on parade to use as this one was a gift from my sister way back in 2000! My one and only...so of course this card is going in the mail to her...today
I gathered my stamps for the challenge and got the papers, unknown red cs and GP white. I used one of Michelle Ward's hearts from her set of Clearly Impressed acrylics inked in Brilliance Moonlight White. This was stamped twice onto the red. The smaller heart and lips are from Technique Tuesday 'love notes'...stamped in ChalkBox lipstick red (whatELSE!). The casual shoes are part of an unmounted set of girlfriend stuff that Purple Onion has! I outlined the heart and shoes in Signo white gel pen. I also used the pen for the banding of the boxers at the edge of the red/white. My MOOCHO is rub-ons and the amour is a dyamo label maker. I wanted a black clip, so I used pigment ink and UTEE, working just great. The ribbon is an unknown red and white stripe!
I so enjoyed perusing the cows on Anne's link...thanks for looking and I do hope there are lots of smooches in your future today!

Holy cow! How creative! I have loved these cow-parade cows forever... I should have known you own one! LOVE THIS CARD... it is the first one in the gallery that I opened.
I've been out of pocket this week working 10+ hour days again.... hope I have time to play this weekend. I have some stickers of cows that have some cool imaging.... may need to dig those out.
I am headed out to the Sacramento RubberStamp Convention now .... may not buy too much but I want to support these companies with my patronage. Times have changed... these conventions used to be all the rage, and now it is going to be in a smaller place with less companies. I even considered not going! :```( but that would just be heresy.
Thanks for the great card O4J... LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!
