Hello Friends! I'm glad to be participating again in the Taylored Expressions Blast from the Past Blog Hop. The theme for today's hop is "Thankful".
I wanted to ink up my Green Acres set, to create a happy scene for a Thank You card. That's the plan anyway cos would you believe it, I've never been on a farm before!
Here's the attempt:
I think this might be the first card I've made in a long while without any embellishments nor die-cuts. Just stamping and colouring. It's so relaxing to just colour the images and see the scene come to life. I didn't have the right Thank You sentiment, so I had to use the sentiment from Sunflower Wreath and the tree peeking from the side is from Love Grows Here. I do apologise for using two images from the newer sets to complete my farm scene.
For copics fan, here are the markers I used:
Barn & hay (R39, R37, R35, E19, E17, E15, E13, Y21, Y26), Tractor (YG01, YG03, YG25, C01, C03, C05, C09), Farmer (C01, C03, E19, E15, E13, BG72, BG75, B91, B93, B95, E000, E01, E31, R20), Chicken (YR18, YR17, YR15, YR13, BG72), Fence (E17, E15, E13), Tree (YG01, YG03, YG25, E15)
To finish off the card, I did some sponging around the stamped piece, using Memento Summer Sky on the top half and Memento New Sprout on the bottom half and adhered it to a Cranberry cardstock.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you'll enjoy the rest of the hop.

Such an adorable farm scene and I love the colors. You are so talented with those Copics!!
Oh, this one is sooo cool! It truly looks like a farm, dear Kary! Though we don't have red sheds like that here in the Netherlands,I wish we would, it looks gorgeous! But I think you'll only find those in USA or Australia maybe? Love the scenery you created!!! Pretty!!

Adorable card! Your shading is absolutely PERFECT on that barn!!! I am in awe :)
Love that it is one layer, but so much detail. I get nervous coloring on the actual project because I feel like a will make a big boo-boo and have to start over. Just gorgeous.
