Silly Card

DSCF0003

My dad was a farmer when I was growing up, and even though he hasn’t farmed in years, he still has it in his blood!  So when I saw this tractor and corn stamp set at a stamp show recently, I knew I had to get it!  I made a very simple Father’s Day card because layers and doodads would not impress my dad too much:

I inked the tractor in Real Red, then rubbed off the ink from the wheels and markered them in Basic Black.  After I stamped it, I masked it to stamp the corn in Wild Wasabi.

The sentiment was computer-generated, and I added some cut-outs from the Cosmo Cricket Garden Variety DP:

I added a Father’s Day sentiment on the inside.  This is also for the Little Red Wagon challenge this week—#85, for Dad!!  Hope he likes it!  Enjoy your day!

Love all your cards, this father's day one is great!!! Love the baby pics too, I have a 22 month old granddaughter Isla that is so fun to be with too. She'd be right there turning the play mat upsidedown too. They sure are a blessing and joy!
