HD Rustic Charm - Farmer's Fields

 

Today's cards come from a Hunkydory kit called Rustic Charm - set called Farmer's Fields.  You can see the elements of the set in the picture below.

Card #1:

The first two cards both have backgrounds cut from the AS (adorable scoreable card stock) included with the set, and the tractor (s) glued on top of it.  This first card was for a swap that needed to have a "farm animal" included.  So - I added the sheep you can see here - which I cut from a stamped image from Art Impressions stamp called "Shepherd Window" - full stamp used on the inside of the card.  I colored the stamped images using Inktense pencils and a water brush. 

Inside:

Other than the stamped image, the only thing here that wasn't from the kit (other than the card base of course) is the scrap of red that mats it.

Card #2:

Though you can't really tell it from the picture, there are two layers on top of the card front itself - all added with foam tape for a bit of dimension.  The background on this one is matted with gold poster board.

Inside:

More elements from the set complete the inside.  I could have used the tractor as another focal, but frankly don't have a lot of use for cards with tractor images so used it here instead.

Card #3:

This last card uses the base that is provided in the set as a focal.  The blue strips top and bottom were cut from the AS sheet.  A border was cut in two pieces and attached top & bottom.  And the sentiment was from the set as well.

Inside:

Inside I used most of the rest of the AS sheet, a bit of left over border, and the last sentiment from the set.
