A Little Highland Cow Hello Card!

Hello everyone! Summer has arrived in Idaho! We have finished planting our raised beds and garden, doing warm weather projects and of course sneaking in some crafting where we can! Thank you for stopping by, we are so glad you did!

Very adorable and western themed! She is joining a few more challenges and all the links to the challenges she is joining and the sketch are near the end of this post!
