My first try with new colors and new sets -- probably the fastest card I ever made!
I layered Soft Suede, Dusty Durango and Crushed Curry. The Crushed Curry layer is stamped with Canvas in CC and the edges are sponged in Dusty Durango. I masked the sun onto the central image, then sponged Crushed Curry, Dusty Durango and Soft Suede. The wheat is stamped in on-and-off Soft Suede. It is all overstamped with Canvas in Sahara Sand and the spatter from Itty Bitty Backgrounds in Close to Cocoa.
The pheasant was stamped in Chocolate Chip craft ink on Dusty Durango cs and clear embossed.

This card is really stunning. Thanks so much for posting it; your use of sponging, backgrounds, and masking to create different textures is inspirational.
