Picket Fence Studios Release!

Today I am thrilled to be a guest designer for the Picket Fence Studios June release! Nobody ever asks me to be a guest designer, and this month I was asked twice. How crazy is that?? And this Picket Fence Studios release is jam-packed full of awesome products. It was hard to figure out what to play with first! But never fear, I did figure it out. My favorite thing from the release is this crazy cow from a set with hilarious messages - No Need to Tip!

And I couldn't possibly make a normal card with him. I had to make him purple. Because I mean why not? So I stamped him and colored him with my Copics (V01, V17, BV08). For the background, I used the fun new Triple Weave Stencil a couple of different ways. First, I used it with Ocean Poppy Paper Glaze, which I spread on with a palette knife.
I also used the stencil with Hero Arts Thistle Reactive Ink in the background, blending it onto a panel of Lavender Cardstock using a Life Changing Blender Brush.

I finished the card by white embossing that funny message. Check out all the funny messages in this set, they are pretty great!

I think I like this cow image so much because he reminds me on one of my favorite travel photos I took from high up in the Alps during a trip to Switzerland, many moons ago. Maybe I need to make a card re-creating this scene!



I made a few more cards with the Picket Fence Studios goodies, and will be sharing them over the next few days.

Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Oh Libby - so glad you had the opportunity to GDT, and this is a fabulous card - love how you used the image and paired it with that wonderful sentiment. Who would have thought - a purple cow!! Love it!
    Stay safe

  3. LOVE this card--that cow speaks to my midwsestern heart and your rendering reminds me of one of the few pieces of poetry I've memorized (clearing my cyber throat...ahem): I never saw a purple cow. I hope I never see one. But I can tell you, anyhow, I'd rather see than be one! (Thanks, too, for your geeky Mole card throwback post from yesterday's class by Lydia--loved it!)
