MCCR - Windmill


Today's challenge at My Cricut Craft Room is to "Think of a State."  Well, I live in Oklahoma and it is truly the windy state.  So, I have created a card with a Windmill.  I found this image in the Cricut Old West cartridge.

Design paper is from Authentique "Hope" 6x6 pack.
Tim Holtz Faded Jeans and Tea Dye Distress Inks were used.

A2 sized card = 5.5" x 4.25".
