For a Farmer


This card is for a very dear neighbour who was 85 years young on Monday.   He owns a vintage tractor just like this so it seemed just right to create a scene for it.  Apart from the tractor stamp and greeting, the rest of the card was done freehand and coloured in using Distress Inks.

I am having a rest from making cards, unless they are special ones, so I  do thank you for stopping by and for all your lovely comments.

  3. Janet, this is such a one-of-a-kind, special greeting for someone special. Your farmer must have been thrilled with your artful card. Beautiful job. I hope it will be time for plowing and such soon.

  4. Thanks for visiting my painted face post. I don't know if I'm up to doing faces in acrylics. It is so much easier in oils, pastels, watercolors, pencils, etc. etc. My mil's book is not what I need. and it is 37 years old. I'm sure there are new materials on the market by now.
