FQCB Theme #4 Project

 Welcome to the 2nd posting at Becca's Heart Quest for Love and Country Creativity blog! This blog has been created to showcase the projects I craft for my challenge blogs, FQCB and HQCB. For this 2nd post I'm featuring FarmQuest's Theme #4 topics elements of poultry and wire/metal. 

This 2 required combo is a terrific farm/rural living theme. Even in most small towns across America, folks can have chickens in their backyard. Maybe I should do this???? Or maybe at my mom's farmhouse??? Okay I got sidetracked. However I do have a uncle and his wife/aunt by marriage who have some chickens, calves, and pigs, just a few of each, at their farmhouse about 10 miles from where we live. The Aunt "E" has a mid-May birthday and I thought she would love this card=



Credits go to lots of different vendors: My Mind's Eye for the light beige and white chevron cardstock; red and white checked buffalo plaid paper from The Paper Studio; chicken wire cardstock, small text strip, and poultry die-cut come from Simple Stories "Love Grows Here"; straw-colored mesh, silver metal 'ribbon' and lettering [NBUS] were found at Dollar Tree stores.
