Got into my craft room for a bit again, before my grand daughter arrives :)
I played with the Homestead collection by Authentique to create a couple of cards.
First up, I just had to ink up this cute little gal! It is from the Sale-A- Bration and I got the set for FREE! You can too, just ask me how :)
You know me, I love to paper piece so that is just what I did here.
I mounted the 'chick' on foam squares. The talking bubble die is from Simon Says. I am playing along with the Little Red Wagon challenge: Down on the Farm
Playing along again with:
Also, when I saw that chicken wire paper in the collection I had to use it too. I then used the wood paper and trimmed it to look like an upcycled pallet.
The stamped sentiment is the Coffee Talk by Altenew and I then die cut the coffee sentiment. Now... those mini brads!!! I haven't used brads in like forever... but they are perfect here don't you think?!
I played along with this inspiration... can you tell?! ;)
This is PERFECTION!! I LOVE that coffee card!!! Amazing design!!
