Country Living
Country. At first glance, this word brings memories of fun times with my brothers growing up. Forts built in the trees. Tree house drawings that never seemed to leave the paper and materialize outside. Baseball. Hide and seek. Oh, the fun we had in the country! These days, country brings thoughts of the farm where my in-loves live. Pigs. Cows. Wheat. So many ways one could interpret this week’s cue word over at CASology, but I’m going to leave that to your imagination! Here is what I came up with:
 |
| Stamps: Mama Elephant, Inkadinkado (sentiment) |
I decided to go with classic black and white, adding just a pop of color and glitter to the kite! One layer except the kite is popped up with a foam dot.
