It's the 14th of the month and we have another of our 'Country' challenges starting today at FarmQuest. Our theme this fortnight is "Farm Equipment, Windmills, Wishing Wells."
When you live out in the country or on the farm, life goes along at a different pace. There are always things which must be done and life isn't always as easy as jumping in the car and running to the grocery store for a half gallon of milk or a pound of butter. Even having clear, cool water sometimes means keeping the windmill in good repair and updating the water pump every few years. The ones I used on my card today have seen better days and have most likely been replaced altogether.
I printed the image in grayscale, then colored it with pale yellow and pale brown pencils. I cut the image with a die from Tonic Studios and inked the edges with a marker. The background dp came from an old Recollections stack and was a scrap in the basket. The sentiment was printed, cut with an Avery Elle die, edges inked, then adhered to the card front.
