From the Whole Herd

 Happy Friday!!!  It's time for a new challenge from the Cut It Up Challenge Blog.  This week, the challenge is: Critters

Here is my card for your inspiration:

I love this stamp set from My Favorite Things; the farm animals are so cute and the sentiments are just too fun!  I made another version of this card with the cow from the same set first and then I decided to make another one using some of the other animals.  So, I die cut both layers of the "hello" sentiment, stamped, colored and fussy cut the animals, stamped the rest of the sentiment and adhered everything in place on some plaid patterned paper that said "country/farm" to me.  I finished everything off with some die cut hearts and I added some glossy accents to those hearts to give them some shine and make them stand out more.  I actually used the base layer die of the "hello" set to cut the horse so he would fit perfectly around th.e sentiment as I didn't want to add extra bulk under the sentiment.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you will hop over to the Cut It Up blog for the full details of the challenge and to see what the rest of the Design Team has created.
