Text and Livestock

I wish I could trace the thought process that brought these cards to life, but it's gone. I'm just really, really glad I thought of it.







See? Curse me all you want, but this country rustic set can be modern fun!

Hope you had a great weekend. I sure did. Got all crafty and made a bunch of cards, including about a dozen Christmas cards. I decided to get brave and submit some of this weekend's work for publication. Will keep you posted.

What craftiness did you get up to this weekend?

Supplies
stamps: various alphabets, PTI On the Farm
ink: Memento
paper: PTI white
accessories: gridded acrylic blocks

    Publication! Oooh, brave girl! Can't wait to hear! I love your take on this farmyard set - really fun (and a great way to use all your alphabets!)

    A weekend trip to beautiful Seattle kept me away from your emails until now. Good thing I didn't buy a bunch of stamping things because after seeing the On the Farm set in your creative hands, I had to order it...and the die set...and 3 other smaller sets. Thank you for being such an amazing enabler. Filing these postings in my Simplicity folder in email as I wait for my order to come.

    LOVE the animal cards!
    how clever, indeed!
    and the colors are wonderful.

    made a few cards this weekend to barter with my friend who cuts my hair! she told me she buys cards all the time, and wd love some handmade ones in exchange for cutting my hair.
    how cool is that?

    thanks for sharing and continuing to inspire me on a daily basis!

    I love the words and letters in the background on these cards. Great idea.

    No crafty accomplishments this weekend other than I did buy some stamps Friday at my LSS's Trash and Treasure sale and a punch and a couple of other things at Michaels. LOL!! Got up wanting to make cards today though! Hoping the allergies will cooperate.
