So for this month, I took...

Cow Appreciation Day - Go out and give a cow a hug, Yellow Pig Day, and Amelia Earhart Day. 

I sooo wanted to do a project that incorporated all three of these together. So I decided to go with a girl yellow pig, flying a plane with a cow hugging the plane. Yep, I can be weird like that sometimes, lol. But, alas, I couldn't get my cow to cooperate so this was plan #2...

My girl pig ( I promise you she is yellow not orange. If you thought she was yellow, than just ignore this). I used Create a Critter 2 for the pig and Everyday Pop Up Cards for my plane and sign. I don't have the sizes because I did this when we first got the days and forgot to write them down, now I can't remember, oops.

And here is my cute cow, I just want to hug and squeeze him... well...not really but I am trying to get into the day, lol. From Create a Critter cart.

"Hugs 2 Moo"....don't you just love it, thought of that all by myself, lol.

We are offering some fabulous blog candy to 3 lucky winners:
