Chari starts us off this week with a cute and punny card to celebrate a new home featuring the Highland Cows! You can watch the video below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.

Thank you so much for watching!

I love how Chari paired the adorable Highland Cow with Build-A-Barn to send “cow-grats” to celebrate a new home! She also included the cute mailbox from Highland Cows Add-On.

Mindy celebrates a wedding using Highland Cows and the Happy Couples flowered arch! She also added the veil and top hat from Bicycle Built for You! Grassy Pasture Backdrop: Portrait provides a pretty background, and a Giddy for Gingham frame adds homespun charm.

Grace created a sweet baby card with a punny greeting combining Scripty Hello and Henry’s ABCs. Build-A-Bee is so perfect for this sweet theme.

She stenciled the background with Bee Happy Background Stencils. It looks so sweet with the soft pastel color palette!

And she even made an adorable Tiny Gift Box with the Tiny Gift Box Bee Add-On to complete this cute card and gift box set!

“Party till the cows come home!” Lynnette‘s celebration card is fun and colorful and perfect for lots of happy occasions with Giant Outlined Yay!

Melissa also created a general celebration for card for any occasion! She featured Build-A-Pitcher with Lemon Vine Border. I love how she filled the shaker pitcher with Tiny Treasures Lemon Clay Pieces, so cute!

Megan‘s new home celebration card starts with Highland Cows, Highland Cows Add-On and Happy Village! Then she created the background with Grassy Pasture Backdrop: Portrait in Zinnia Blissful Blossoms paper. She trimmed the top section to layer over a Spiffy Speckles Seafoam panel. Such a sweet new neighborhood!

Latisha‘s card is so beautiful with all those lovely lemons! She layered Lemon Vine Border and the You’ve Got Mail postcard on a Giddy for Gingham background. The little flowers add a pretty pop of pink!

Perfect for any celebration, Audrey‘s card is so adorable! The background is made with a Quilted Diamond Backdrop and Stitched Rectangle Frames. Then she created a sweet little vignette with Highland Cows and Butterfly Kisses. And then Giant Let’s Celebrate provides the perfect greeting!

Elise‘s wedding card is so bright and cheery combining Highland Cows, Happy Couples and Giddy for Gingham paper! Scripty Congrats with Scripty Congrats Outline Add-On create a bold and pretty greeting!

Melissa created a bucolic pasture scene with Meadow Backdrop: Landscape, Picket Fence Border and the Highland Cows! She included the mailbox from Highland Cows Add-On and a punny sentiment combining both sets.

Jennifer‘s new baby card is so brilliant! She used Build-A-Bee for the happy new parents and Magic Iris Beehive Add-On for the baby bee, so cute! She framed the little family using Say Cheese, Again, creating a shaker with the photo frame filled with Heart Clay Pieces. Then she inked more cute bees using Bee Happy Background Stencils, arranging everything on top with Scripty Congrats!

  5. Wow, I just LOVE Grace’s Hello Babee card… that is so perfect for a co-worker who recently had her first baby.
    I have mostly been creating birthday cards for co-workers – an art-themed Pull ‘n Slide Surprise card for a co-worker’s 10 year old and a non-LF card. Upcoming, I have a Mermaid themed card (I’m sure Jenn will approve lol) and a Land Before Time dinosaur card to do (which is exciting because I only just recently bought the Rawrsome, Rawr and Rawr Flip-Flop sets).
