Butter Cow For President!

Since the Iowa Straw Poll has taken over the news today, I thought I should reveal my choice for 2012.

Butter Cow.

You might think to yourself - "but Butter Cow isn't running!" Well, you'd be wrong.



Butter Cow IS running, and so help me biscuits, Butter Cow will WIN. The campaign for a butter tomorrow begins with my vote. Read more about Butter Cow on the Butter Cow Campaign site.

With that dirty subject of politics out of the way - let's talk inspiration.



The other day, I came across this beautiful image on one of my favorite inspiration blogs - Polli.

Doesn't that color combination just make your eyeballs happy? It does mine.

I had the little Young Vermilion stamp sitting on my desk, and Sweet Floral on the floor :) so this is what I came up with.
Ink: Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, White Craft Ink, Basic Black, Soft Suede 
Paper: Pool Party, Very Vanilla, First Edition DSP, Crumb Cake  
Accessories: Artichoke Denim Ribbon, White Embossing Powder, Heat Gun, Sponge, Aquapainter

A birthday card for a friend. 

Yes, I actually mailed it. 

Try not to faint. 

Oh - and yeah - it's Caturday!

    Caturday's nearly over here, sigh...
    Yep, that colour combination is fab - that cool, soft, peaceful blue and the gorgeous birdie, and those flowers the colours of the marigolds that were in a pack of wildflower seeds I planted. Why don't we have all those colourful birds you get over there - no fair. Wonderful font on the birday (you get your caturday, I get my birday) stamp.

    Oh - and if the voting for the butter cow means fewer low-fat spreads and oliveoil-based this and sunflower seed oil-based that, he can have my vote for sure!! Are postal votes allowed ;-)

    Love, love, love the card. Stamps of all species come and go but I think the bird stamps will always prevail. They are just so darn cute. I stuck a little 'un on my card today, too. *smile*
