Field of flowers


 Created the blue background with blue ink 
Clear cling stamp Colored with pencils
Rounded corners, layered on grey, blue and light grey cardstock. Added enamel dot 





Song in your heart


I started on white card stock and rounded the corners I added a strip of pink paper and then a strip of notes that I printed on white card stock I placed the sentiment on black to make it stand out and added a 3-D butterfly. I make a lot of generalized cards and a lot of cards that I can send to my friends or to send to someone to cheer up so that’s probably my favorite kind of card to create.

Grew up in a barn


I got the stamp set from my sister for Christmas and we laughed about the sentiments as we grew up in Central Iowa and while not on a farm have visited several farm places. The biggest laugh was when we would leave a door open my mom would always say were you born in a barn??

Horse

whenever I think of farm it's not always livestock type animals. I like horses I just have never had the opportunity to do a lot of riding. So for this challenge I started out with cream colored card stock and found a woodgrain paper and layered it, then I found a solid Burgundy and studded the two ends and layered it . I found a figured brown /cream paper... on that I layered my horse picture on top of cream that I had cut with my oval punch and then used  my scallop punch and did a lighter brown colored and I used a burgundy paper and stamped  the sentiment.
