My neighbour has a granddaughter visiting and it is her father's birthday today. She asked me to make a card. He is a farmer and working today, and seeing as it is Labour Day and I also needed a sample card for the S2S16JJ challenge, I made this card for both. I started out doing the main image. Stamped the tractor on cs and also on printer paper and cut that one out and masked the tractor, then stamped the farm buildings.. I coloured everything with copics. Then I used my glue pen to go over the unpainted metal parts of the tractor, and heat embossed those in silver. The background is embossed with the gears folder. I added some dark blue brads and mats for the image and the embossing panel. Added the sentiment and it was finished. I hope he doesn't mind a Farmall tractor, when he drives a Massey Ferguson.

That EF is so perfect with your image! A perfect card for the farmer dad. The blue really stands out against the white.
I have to go check out the S2S challenge. Handsome card, Ina.

This is a fantastic card! I love everything about it! I sure wish I could give my dad a card like this for his birthday on October 8th. I bet the recipient loved this card! ~Karen.
