Cards or Gnomes?

      It's been a month since I posted anything but circumstances seem to have dictated taking a break from cards for a few months but I can still make gnomes so that's where I'm focused right now.  I won't be posting as often, nor will I be doing any DT projects for a while, but I'll post photos of my gnomes as I go along.

     In addition to the regular gnomes which look like woodland creatures or even wizards, I've also discovered that some really adorable animals can be turned into gnomes - shaggy hair, big noses, and no eyes!

     Today, I'm sharing a gnome cow which I made for my granddaughter.  She's the one who's away at college (Texas Tech) and who has a thing about cows.  I've done other things with black and white cowhide prints, paper or fabric, and she's decorated her apartment with all kinds of cow decor.  But this one is my first Highland Cow gnome.  She loves it!

     Long nap faux fur, carved coral for the horns, and the muzzle was made with a bottle cap and felt.  I think it's an absolute hoot!  lol

     That's it for today.  I may have another one later this week so keep an eye open.

     Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie
