Harvest Tractor - Sketch Frenzy Friday

It's Friday, and time for Sketch Frenzy Friday.  There's been a bit of a change in format.  No longer is this a blog hop.  All sample cards can be seen on the Sketch Frenzy Friday homepage.
Since Thanksgiving is only a couple of weeks away, I thought I would make a masculine card that could be for Thanksgiving or any other occasion.  I did not put a sentiment on the outside for that very reason.
Today's sketch is mine.

09/28/12  Maria 

Technique:  The base card of Cajun Craze is layered with Very Vanilla cardstock embossed with the Chevron folder which has been inked lightly with Early Espresso ink.
The image was stamped with Early Espresso ink, and lightly colored with markers and an Aqua painter.  I deliberately wanted to blur some of the color to make the tractor look old.
The labels framelit was used to die cut the image, the outlines of which were sponged with Early Espresso ink.
A strip of Orchard harvest designer paper was adhered down the middle of the Chevron embossed Very Vanilla layer, and the image was adhered to this using dimensionals.

Stamp: Harvest Blessings
Inks: Early Espresso, SU markers
Papers: Cajun Craze, Very Vanilla, Whisper White, Orchard Harvest designer paper
Accessories: Aqua painter, Labels framelit, Chevron folder, dimensionals
