Down on the Farm

     It's Friday again and that means another "Anything Goes" challenge has begun at QKR Stampede.  Even though our primary theme is always "Anything Goes" we offer an optional twist if you want to use it.  This week, it's "Down on the Farm."  I used this fun and funny image from QKR called "Farmer."

     Farmer Pig (along with his 'moonshine' jug) is colored with ProMarkers, die cut with border dies from Spellbinders and the edges were inked with Promarkers, too.  The polka dot paper is from SU and the polka dot ribbon came from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  The fabric flower was in my stash and I added a tiny scrap of gingham ribbon to it before layering it onto the other ribbon.

Down on the Farm with QKR Stampede

     New challenge starts today at QKR Stampede and our latest theme is "Down on the Farm."  I took the opportunity to make a card for a friend who always begs me to make Christmas cards for them to mail out.  Since they are horse people and live on a ranch, I thought this one would be perfect for them.  I've actually made a dozen of these and the little outhouses are all different colors.

     The image is Digi 16202 "Outhouse" and the sentiment is Digi 14104 "Our Ranch."  The "at Christmas" part is my own so don't waste time searching the store for it.  :-D

     I used my ProMarkers to color the image and then cut it with a stitched square die from Cheery Lynn.  I also cut both sentiment pieces with a smaller die from that same set.  The ribbon was in my Christmas stash and the snowflakes were left over from last year's embellishments.  I'm pretty sure the sparkly dp in the background is DCWV but I've had it for so long, I have no idea what stack.

     Tons of delicious texture on this card from the layers and the embellishments.
