Tractor & Co Bundle!

Welcome to our Create With Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges.  This week’s inspiration challenge is this beautiful corn image:

I added lots of corn to my card today, using the Tractor & Co bundle:

A little tidbit about me. I own a Kubota tractor which means it’s orange. I use it several times a week during the summer months and quite a bit in the winter months as I have a huge driveway and I snowblow with it to keep the driveway in tip top shape. I was lucky that my hubby Dave showed me how to operate the tractor a few years before he passed away of cancer. I use it a lot to keep my yard maintained and haul so much stuff with it. It’s actually quite fun to run! I’m a flower & veggie garden grower so it sure does come in handy!

I opted to use this bundle today because it has the cutest corn images:
