Today I am the Featured Artist for the brand-new Art Impressions "Farm Fresh" Blog Challenge! I'm really excited to be asked to create a card that includes anything farm related such as, hay bales, animals, barns, wagons, wheelbarrows, trucks, tractors, chicken coops, produce/veggies etc. So, I thought we would create this fun, interactive, diorama card!

I'm calling today's card the "Christmas on the Farm" diorama card and we will be using the Ai Christmas Truck Set (5457) which includes a truck, tree, Christmas lights, presents, a candy cane, and a cute little signpost. We will also be grabbing the hay bales from the Ai Harvest Set (5598).

Let's go ahead and stamp, color and cut the pieces that we will be using today. To do our coloring we will be using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Lt Pink, Wine Red, Orange, Yellow, Mustard, Ice Blue, Persian Blue, Lt Green, Deep Green, Lt Gray, Warm Gray 4, Beige, Mid Brown.

To create the diorama card base we will be using the Lawn Fawn Ta Da! Diorama! Set. This die set will cut and score all of the pieces that we will need to create this fun design. For paper we will be using the Ai Christmas S2 Paper Pack (5812). I'll give you a detailed demonstration in the video for how to easily assemble this fantastic and fun diorama.

For the little signpost we will add a "Joy" sentiment using the Ai Christmas Sentiments Set (5566). This just looks so cute on our woodgrain sign!

Again, I will show you the assembly of the card base and all of the dies needed in this video! The end result is just so cute and interactive!

I hope you will join us in this new challenge! We would love to see what you create! It is a great opportunity to dig through your stash and combine some of your stamp sets to create your own "Farm Fresh" project!

Thank you so much for joining me today! Have a fun and crafty day!!!
