Since we live in cattle/dairy country, this theme is totally appropriate for the cards I need to make.   Love your examples!

These are wonderful.  Doesnt that wood look lend itself wonderfully to masculine cards.   You earned the bonuses on both.  great cards

Your examples are amazing. I am going to give this a try.

I used both blue jean pp and wood grain pp & embossing folder on the front of my card!
ALSO I did both BONUSes It's a birthday card & I have a cow!

here's my submission for the May card challenge. I think it's missing something. I haven't made cards or scrapped in a long time. Thanks for the fun challenge! Does anyone know if I can rotate the image? 

Cute cards. What a fun Challenge.

This is an old member who is retired now and coming back on the board after a long absence.  And neither she nor I can figure out how for her to post into this thread so this month I am doing it for her.   Then hopefully by next month someone can help her do it on her own.  LOL
Rural, barn, birthday!     A wonderful card. 
BTW she is Jeri T or c2mt2 on here and we became friends through this board back in the early 2000's.      So welcome back JERI!
