Farmyard Father's Day Card

Good morning friends

Today's card share uses some of Karen Burniston's newest dies. This farm collection will be shipping from Elizabeth Craft Designs at the end of the month ... and the Designer Challenge Team is having SO much fun with them. Here I used the Barn portion of the Barn Pop Stand set to decorate the front of a Father's Day card.

 Inside I have a row of farmyard characters standing up. I used the Barn Pop Stand on the inside and to get the farm characters to stand up I made a little hill. To do this, cut two 2 x 5" strips. Place them with the wrong sides together and cut the top edge with one of the Beach Edges. Then simply mount each 'hill' to the Pop Stand tabs as directed on the package. Instead of adhering the barn, you adhere the hill with the hills attached together at the top outside edges.

I loved the pattern on this paper so didn't want to cover it up. Instead I added a popped up die cut cloud.

Yes, I do know that a herd is not made up of a pig, a cow and a chicken. But hey - artistic license!

I'm loving how the farm characters can be made masculine or feminine, depending on the colours or papers chosen.
