Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration is a snowy farm landscape!
TRACTOR & CO
My dad was a farmer when I was young, and I remember an old red tractor he drove just like this! Of course, he had the fancier tractors, too, but this was an old reliable one! I’m pretty sure I have pictures of our kids sitting on it!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Shaded Spruce cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- The 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Pool Party was stamped and stamped off across the top using the Ornamental Christmas tree using Shaded Spruce Ink! I LOVE this tree and I’m sure you’ll be seeing me use it a LOT!
- A 2 x 5 piece of Basic White cardstock was torn across the top and adhered to the bottom, the torn piece added on top of the other piece for a snowbank look.
- Two trees from Tractor & Co were cut from Shaded Spruce cardstock using the die and added to the front left side with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The tractor was stamped with Real Red Ink, the wheels and seat with Memento Black Ink and cut with the Dies. They were adhered on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The hubcaps were cut from Smoky Slate cardstock and added to the wheels.
- The greeting was stamped with Shaded Spruce ink on 1/2 x 1-1/2 piece of Basic White and the end cut at an angle. It was added by the trees with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
- Some silver Adhesive Backed Metallic Gems were added to the hubcaps and to the trees for a little bling!
So fun! There are so many details in the inspiration piece…I wanted to use the deer and the geese…but thought I had used enough product already on this card! OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
