Tractor Fun

Happy Wednesday, peeps! I have a "just for fun" card today using a new Online Exclusive set that came out yesterday called Tractor & Company!  I usually steer clear of bundles with lots of fussy little pieces because inevitably, I find them too time-consuming, but since I grew up on a farm and have lots of farm-y people in my circle of acquaintances, I thought I'd go for it!  The first card definitely took a while to create, but it was fun:


My dad had Massey-Harris tractors when I was young, so I chose to make my tractor red!  I diecut and stamped all the images and created a little cloud for the sentiment using the retired Basic Borders die.  I also used the diecut edges to sponge some other clouds in the sky:


Cute sentiment, too!  My second one was much simpler; no diecutting, just stamping.  I really messed up my snowflakes, but this one was easy enough that I may just do another one:

I have a couple more ideas for this set, so you'll probably see it again soon!  Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

"Happy are those who reject the advice of evil people, who do not follow the example of sinners or join those who have no use for God.  Instead, they find joy in obeying the Law of the Lord, and they study it day and night." Psalm 1:1-2

CAS C&S563 You're On My Mind

Happy Tuesday, peeps! Happy July! Hope you're staying cool!  We had quite a busy weekend--2-day yard sale, church, boat ride, recuperation, LOL, so my stamping time was a bit limited! The Clean and Simple Colours & Sketches challenge this week is a sweet little color challenge to get my mojo started again:


I haven't used the set Encircled With Love very much, so I did some stamping in each of the colors, then fussy-cut some of the images and popped them up on an embossed panel for an uber-CAS card:


I did add a tiny scallop mat behind the image, as well as some Wink of Stella to the pink heart and a rhinestone gem to the purple one:


Simple, easy and sweet!  Thanks for popping in today!
