Pasture Birthday Card Set

 

I finally had time to play with the newly released Newton from the Farmer Newton stamp set. Then I stumbled on to this, new to me, challenge blog called FarmQuest General Store Challenge Blog!  Seriously, this stamp set is just what I needed play in this, and future, challenges.  In addition, to Farmer Newton, I pulled out some farm equipment from the Farming Fun stamp set. Newton's Nook Designs also has some super fun farm animal sets. I used the barn and hay bale from the Moo stamp set.  Then I ran out of stamped and cut hay blales, so I used a chicken from the Cluck stamp set on the white card. In addition, I used the Land Borders and the Slimeline Frames & Windows (cut down to 2 windows) die sets to create the design. I love how this set turned out, and the sentiment is perfect because I love making cards, but never seem to send them on time!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,

Debbie

Papercraft Challenge #107-For the Boys

Though I did lots of farm work on my grandfather's farm, most of the work came from two important "boys" in my life--Pappaw and my dad. I dedicate these cards, and all future farm-themed cards, to your memory. I have so many fond memories of bottle-feeding the calves, baling hay, "helping" with the pigs, and watching the crops grow.  My all time favorite is visiting and finding all the kittens!

  This week we are challenge you to make a card/project 
featuring Fall.

Newton's Nook Designs has so many autumn-themed stamps and stencils!  For my card, I decided to create a coffee-themed card using the Pumpkin Latte stamp set.  I started with a kraft card base. I pulled out ivory card stock and die cut it with the Frames Squared die set. Using orange, olive green, brown, and gray, I randomly stamped the small images from the Pumpkin Latte stamp set. I added an orange flag using the Frames & Flags die set. I cut off one end of the banner then added a little jute. I stamped the sentiment in the dark gray and added the pumpkin and latte images.  For my main attraction, I colored the latte lady in the same color scheme and popped her up with foam tape.

Now it's your turn to make a fall-themed card and link it up at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!

FYI--Inky Paws Challenge is having a Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas challenge. I bet you could create a card using the  CIC's fall theme with IPC's Thanksgiving theme!  Double your changes of winning a NND store credit!  Yay!

It was a long weekend, so I pulled out some never been used stamps. This little set is from Neat and Tangles--Say Yes to Donuts. 

Here's the inside.  I can't wait to give this to someone I love with a half-dozen of yummy donuts!

Those good looking donuts are from a DCWV Premium Stack--Good Eats.  I used a die cut from Your Next Thing--Fun With Squares--to make it look like a divided donut box.
