50th birthday card

My mom asked me to make a card for her old friend who turned 50 the other day. Here’s the result which was based on a sketch challenge but I was too slow entering so it’s closed. But it doesn’t matter, I like the card anyway and it was fun to make!

I wanted to use something close to nature or cows as she is a farmer who has a lot of beef cows (?). Unfortunately I had no fitting stamps for that nor did I have cow patterned paper or anything like that. Instead I went for pale natural colors and my mom got to choose the patterned background paper!

Still practicing on coloring blonde hair, it’s so much easier when you know which colors to use and how. Thank you youtube!
