Happy Birthday Vanessa, and a Quirky Craft Challenge

I have been suffering from serious lack of Mojo lately, couldn't seem to motivate myself to make anything despite having all these pretty ribbons in front of me courtesy of Crafty Ribbons. I really tried, laid out the ribbons on different things but could not seem to get it going, sorry Ali. 
Then on Friday I started to make this card for Vanessa who's birthday is today (Happy Birthday dear Daughter in Law). V loves cows so I got out my herd of Penny Black cows, not the Christmas herd, and picked this cutie. V hasn't got her card yet but I hope she likes it.
Coloured with Promarkers,die cut with Nestabilties, balloon eyelets from stash, brad daisies from stash, Happy Birthday punch by Martha Steward using free papers from a magazine, really pretty flower ribbon from Crafty Ribbons, who I still owe two projects with the ribbons. The Memento ink pad seems a little dry so I went over some of the black with a black Promarker.
Quirky Crafts Challenge 31 is Ribbons, and I sneaked in this card as my DT one on to the blog. You have a week left to enter your creations, which don't have to be cards, and again this is a popular challenge as so many people use ribbons in their creations.
I have entered this card in the RosieDees challenge: Summer Birthdays
