Howdy, howdy! Thank you so much for joining me for my Terrific Tuesday Challenge project today! This weeks cart is County Life....
I used Lacy Labels for the base and the stamp is from SMS Spring Fling set.
Boy, this card was lots of work. I had it all planned out on my Gypsy but did NOT do a good job of space planning! LOL I didn't have enough space for my stamp, so I tried to make it a 2 line stamp and didn't like it. Then I tried (since I had already "ruined" the card) to see if I could stamp it across the sun - yuck! So I wound of pulling off all the layers and cutting them again (well, not the clothesline - that, I managed to salvage). I actually moved all the hill layers up about .5" so that less of the sun shows but I was able to gain more "grass" space at the bottom for my stamp. Oh, what I did to make the bottom grass layer longer is to weld a square onto the bottom. I then had to cut out the shape to match the label once it was glued down. Whew! :)
I hope you enjoyed my little card! Be sure to join us this Friday for 2 new Scrappy Moms Stamps releases and on Saturday for a blog hop! :)

Cute card! I hate when I try and plan a card out and it never goes together like I picture in my mind. Your card turned out great despite the trouble it gave you.
Your card looks great, Mel! There are just some days that don't go as well as others but you made it work!
