    Becca this card is beautiful. I love how you've framed the barn with the other layers. The mesh adds texture and it's a perfect decoration for it. Thanks for joining us at A Place To Start. Hugs, María.

    Fantastic card Becca, the hay adds so much texture and interest to your card, love that barn image too. Although I didn't live with him, my dad had a farm all while I was growing up and when I visited I loved playing in the barn on the hay bales! Thanks for sharing with us at the Paper Funday Challenge!

      Thanks so much Melanie!! My parents had farms several times during my early childhood years and then again when I was an adult. Both set of grandparents had farms, so I, too, have lots of wonderful memories and a few scary ones as well but overall delightful times to cherish.
