TGIF - with Unity

Friends with Flair Friday...
You can check out all the Unity Fan Creations
HERE!!

Yes, I have been a busy girl!

We have started harvest here on the farm. 
I end up making two meals a day for 6 men, myself, and the kids EVERY DAY...
and that isn't what makes me busy.
I then HAUL the meals out to the farm for everyone to eat at the field.

Here is a picture of a corn field we cut into:




It is time consuming.

I get to plan the meals,
shop for the meals, 
make the meals, 
haul the meals,
go home and clean up the meals...
AND, I do that twice a day!

Besides being busy with those duties, I also have normal duties with the house and kids!
I hate homework!

Anyway, here is a card I made recently:


I love the colors. 

I used stamps from Unity Stamp Co.:
Insightful Meadows
Thoughts from the Past
Love In the Air

The background was made with putting ink on my block, spritzing it with water, and stamping to the white card stock. I love how the colors mixed. I then took one of the ink colors and stamped the Unity stamp for a little more layering...

    Such a pretty card!
    I hear you! I was never so happy as when I graduated from the food person to a tractor driver!! Beans are out as of yesterday, just did a bit of corn last night and this morning. Yields look good here.

    I don't think I'd make a very good farm wife, but you are doing marvelously! Keep it up. Harvest is over soon! I love your card! I think I'm going to try that ink technique.

    Beautiful card! The layers of stamping really add a lot of interest without a lot of bulk.
