I'm not quite sure how I feel about this card. It's for my dad whose birthday is later this week. He's a clean lines, simple kind of guy which was what I was trying to achieve with this design.I was completely inspired by Connie Collins' gorgeous card and this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #55.
The sunset was created by reverse-masking with a 1 3/4" circle punch and Post-It Note and sponging Summer Sun and touches of More Mustard. The wheat images are stamped using Close to Cocoa and randomly stamping off.
