It's Your Birthday!

At the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge blog the theme is Happy Birthday - to celebrate their 6th year!    

My boss asked me to make a birthday card for his wife with a gardening/farming theme as he is giving her a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) membership to a local farm called Sweet Penelope Farms.  I had a lot of fun creating and personalizing this little farm scene:


The barn from Lawn Fawn "Critters on the Farm" set was embossed then colored with copic markers.  The sentiment- stamped in Stampin' Up daffodil delight ink- is from Mama Elephant's "Happy Everything" set.  The little sheep, ears of corn and tomatoes were die cut using Cricut cart "From My Kitchen" while the wheelbarrow and gardening tools came from the "Walk in my Garden" cart.  
Other Supplies Used:  Our Daily Bread Fence die, My Favorite Things Stitched Snowdrifts dies and banner die, Cuttlebug swiss dot embossing folder, silver brad, toothpick, Lawn Fawn Let's Polka Mon Amie pp, Stampin' Up real red, crumb cake, black, garden green and daffodil delight cs, Papertrey ink white cs, Amuse gingham pp

I don't think I'll ever tire of creating scene cards - although it is a little exhausting to list all of the supplies used!  LOL!  Hope you're having a great week so far!  Thanks for all the thoughtful comments:)
