Whole Herd

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

Here is my card for your inspiration:

While I was playing around on Pinterest this week, I came across a tutorial for this card style that I just HAD to try.  It looked so fun, and honestly it is quite easy to make once you get the two pieces cut and scored.  I need to make a birthday card for my nephew who is turning 8 this month and I thought he would appreciate something a little bit "more" than a regular card.

So my "C"s are: Card (that's a pretty obvious one!), Critters, and Cow.  I stamped, colored and fussy cut out the farm animals and then adhered them to the card with some die cut grass.  Of course, I had to add in a die cut "8" to celebrate his eighth birthday.

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.
