Well, I’m aware that this card is suspiciously like my Spring Song card, but I do like the color combination and the look of this type of card.

The card is River Rock with the Weathered background stamp in Close to Cocoa.
The image from the "For Father" set is a toolkit stamped in Staz-On and colored with Stampin’ Write Markers of the following colors: Creamy Caramel, Sahara Sand, Mellow Moss & More Mustard.

The layers behind the focal image are torn pieces of Chocolate Chip cardstock and a torn piece of Creamy Caramel cardstock (crimped).
Sponging helps the ‘rustic’ look. How’d I do?
