RRCB241 Farm Fresh Birthday

Happy Thursday, all!  Squeaking this "farm-fresh" birthday card in over at Retro Rubber, where they have a tic-tac-toe board:

I chose the top row across of diecut, twin and patterned paper.  I needed a card for a guy at church; he's the foreman at a large farm and believe it or not, they make cheese!  I found these fun papers in my stash, and I pulled out a couple of Stamp Simply sets from 2023 to make his card (although I think he makes his cheese from sheep--no sheep on this paper!):

First, let me say that the blue gingham panel does not look anything in real life like it does here...way too bright in my photo!  Anyway, I stamped my cows and arrows in Night of Navy on Basic Beige cardstock and diecut them out.  I had a circle already cut in my stash, so I mounted them on the circle, stamping "farm fresh" and a birthday sentiment from Poppy Stamps' Whittle Sayings (also a couple years old):

The gingham stamp is from Papertrey---waaaay old, probably at least 10 years! I stamped it in craft white, then sponged Night of Navy ink on it to tone it down a bit.  And lastly, you can see a tiny bit of Linen Thread I tied around the arrows.  

I love anything country, so this makes me happy and I hope he likes it too!  Thanks for popping in today--enjoy it and be blessed!
