From My Head Tomatoes: A Summer Veggie Card!

Hello everyone! Summer has arrived in Idaho! We have finished planting our raised beds and garden, doing warm weather projects and of course sneaking in some crafting where we can! Thank you for stopping by, we are so glad you did!

This card was inspired by two things: 1. Lawn Fawn's Summer Splash Challenge and 2. our garden! We love our garden and the fresh veggies and fruits we get from it all summer long with the largest harvest coming in the fall, of course! We are already getting lettuce, Swiss chard, onions, strawberries and the raspberries are just starting to turn pink! All the tomatoes (we already have a tomato coming on), carrots, corn, beans, potatoes and squashes are growing super well and we can't wait! Summer for our family is garden, yard work, outdoor projects, and ... yes more garden (..and sneaking in the crafting when we can)!! haha! I loved how this card reminds me of summer at our home! Makes me smile... always! Links to all the challenges I am joining with this card are near the end of this post! Check them out and join in the fun!

Here is the card:

Products I used:

• Lawn Fawn Veggie Friends Stamp Set
• Lawn Fawn Really Rainbow 6x6 Paper Pack
• Simon Says Stamp Nocturne Black VersaFine Clair Ink Pad
• Tim Holtz Peeled Paint and Rustic Wilderness Distress Ink Cubes
• Various colored cardstock and embellishments from personal crafting stash
• Various colored fine-line markers and pencils

Here are some more photos to show some close-up details of this card:
