John Deer Birthday!

The boys were invited to a birthday party today and the theme was John Deer. I wanted to make a tractor card and this is what I came up with. I am not sure what the background wheel is called, it is retired from several catalogues ago. It is hard to see but I sponged the sky with Bashful Blue and the ground with Soft Suede. The presents stacked on the inside of the card are kind of funny looking don't you think? I always like to involve my boys in the card making process when it is for the friends. I asked Craig to pick the present colors and he picked pink so naturally I said 'your friend that is a boy does not want a pink present' and Craig said 'but mom, pigs are pink.' They always have a reason for doing things. So Craig picked Black polka dots to be like a cow, the pink box is for the pig and the Striped boxed is for the chickens and rooster.
