My Grandas Birthday Card

It was my Grandas 86th birthday on Wednesday. For as long as I can remember my Granda has had a greenhouse & grown tomatoes so when I saw this image, I knew it was perfect for him. I coloured it using my Promarkers & I added Glossy Accents to the tomatoes. The backing paper is from the Papermania Secret Garden pack & I thought it matched the colours I had used on the picture perfectly. I also added some card candy in matching colours.
I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:
Cards for men Challenge 18 - Long Summer days

    Brilliant card, I love how you've themed it to something that Grandad has always done, it must have meant such a lot to him.
