I started by stamping the images from Highland Cows!, All the Grasses, and Cozy Cats. then I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers to color them in. I added some details with a white gel pen, and then used the coordinating dies to die cut them out.

for the background, I die cut out a bunch of ground using the Grassy Border and Stitched Hillside Borders then I added colors with Distress Oxide Inks in Pine Needles, Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron. then I splattered all over the background with white acrylic ink to mimic snowfalling. then I wanted to also add some texture, so I used some white embossing paste and the Snowflakes stencil for a little whimsical snow, too!

I added the winter apparel to the cute cows and then popped them up with foam tape.
the sentiment was partially die cut with Henry's ABCs from Black Licorice Cardstock, and then heat embossed in white with the sentiment from
Cozy Cats Christmas Add-on.

I really can't WAIT for you to play along! you could win a $25 gift certificate to Lawn Fawn!!!!
