Good morning all.
We're heading quickly to the school holidays here in the UK. Hopefully the weather will be kind for my daughter and family, nothing worse than rain and two kids to occupy!
Anyway after a hectic 9th birthday party for my Grandson on Saturday I finally got some time to make this card for the latest challenge over at Cardz4Guyz -
TRANSPORT
Here is my card.
I know you're laughing at a tractor as a form of transport but in this neck of the woods they are as common as a Cheshire tractor, 4 x 4 that is. There is even an elderly guy who uses the lane to go into town on his tractor with his sheepdog in a transport box attached to the rear!
I bought this Woodware stamp set awhile ago to make a card for the OH but didn't use it in the end, perhaps I will use this for this years birthday! I did use his tractor as an example for the colouring as well as the colours at Paper Players!
The layout is CAS(e) this Sketch, tractor stamped and coloured with Copics before fussy cutting it and placing it over a couple of scraps of NitWits DP on a die cut panel from the stash. I popped the finished panel up on pads over an A5 base card, slipping the stamped sentiment under the rear tyre.
So for more transport inspiration check out the rest of the DT here, then why not join in?

Yep, common mode of transport here as well. That is a mighty fine Ford, ours is older than me a 1964 Ford 4000 affectionately known as Betsy!! A great card Julie xx
ReplyDeleteLOVE it. In my neck of the woods, John Deere green is popular, but I always associate blue with Ford tractors! And although my dad was a Ford man, he always had Massey Harris red tractors! No matter, it is an AWESOME card and I love every bit of it! Thanks for playing with my Paper Players colors this week!
ReplyDeleteI grew up on a farm in IN so, your card makes me smile! I usually think of tractors as John Deere green, too, but this blue one is awesome! Thank you so much for joining us at The Paper Players this week! XX
ReplyDeleteYour blue tractor is fabulous - I know many a farmer who would be thrilled to receive this card! Thanks for joining us over at The Paper Players this week!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this country scene that you've created Jules. That tractor is so cool! Fabulous colouring!! xx
