Featuring FQCB Theme #24 AFCG inspiration project

 Welcome! On this personal blog showcasing my love and country creativity projects, this posting is focused on the country with FarmQuest Theme #24!

What: FarmQuest Challenge Blog's theme #24 Anything Farm Country Goes

When: March 14-27, 2023

Why: since I'm owner of this challenge blog; also FQCB has new themes published on the 14th and 28th of each month

Kiss The Cook Farmhouse Kitchen friendship card=


How: some design and vendor notes=

1. navy blue and white buffalo plaid cardstock = The Paper Studio/Hobby Lobby

2. barn siding patterned paper = Hot Off The Press

3. the lime green hexagon/chicken wire patterned paper = Art Skills

4. the fabric scrap = Dollar Tree (3 prints' strips for $1.25 plus tax)

5. die-cuts = Echo Park's Farmhouse Kitchen Ephemera; the Kiss the Cook oven mitt die-cut had yellow marker applied over the mitt to get some more yellow/orange tone on the card

6. stencils for the apron and oven mitts = sheet has a lot more kitchen tools on it= $1.25 plus tax at Dollar Tree; traced with black ink pen; painted with thin layer of blue acrylic paint; some dabs of gold glitter acrylic paint; black permanent marker outlining; fussy cut; black marker inked edges; then 3 Memento ink pads applied in crisscross patterning...oh, I forgot that I used a fine detail tip black pen to put in stitching lines before doing the extra ink pad colors!!!

    So fun! This reminds me of my Grandma's kitchen. She lived in a small house on a large farm; wow, did that kitchen smell good! We would walk in and the smell of dinner would be so welcoming! Thanks for sharing with us at Path of Positivity! ~Katrina

      Thank you, Katrina! Glad you got the kitchen vibe from this! My paternal grandmother was more the cook than my maternal grandmother (at least by the time I was little) and when she lived on her farm until I was about 10, walking into her home was always a sensory experience too! When she moved into town, she took a closed Presbyterian church and made it into her home...a novel idea back in the early 1970s.
