Poor Molly Moo so wants to be like all the prissy swine in the farmyard, but she just doesn't quite fit in. She even went so far as to get her tail pierced and wired like all the swine! Still the pigs would not accept her as one of them. Molly Moo's mama comforted her DD and told her that she should always dare to be different and make a difference in this world! Good advice, mama!
This card is, obviously, for the Ways to Use It challenge to use wire on our card. The pigs' and cow's tails are corkscrew wired.
This card is also for a challenge issued to a group of us by jdmommy (Anne) to make an Old MacDonald card by using an animal you would find on a farm. I chose these two Stampability animals for my farm and colored them with Copic markers.
I used a cloud template for my sky sponged in Bashful Blue, and daubers and a little grass stamp in Mellow Moss for the ground, with a hint of Creamy Caramel sponged in for the dirt.
I distressed the edges of the main panel and the card is a 5 1/4 square card.
TFL!
