Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity Blog! Living most of my life in the USA's Midwest region, my love for farm country is reflected often in my paper-crafting creations. I've also lived in the Mid-South/South in Tennessee and in the Mid-South/SW in Texas! My parents both came from farm families and my parents farmed some in my early years and then in my mid-adult years. During those time periods, I've gathered eggs, taken pigs to livestock market, moved pigs from 1 side of the farmhouse/buildings to the other side--about a 4 acre trek, set up the vaccinations and fly tags for beef cattle, and hundreds if not thousands of other tasks...Yee-haw! :)
Purpose: this posting showcases my owner/DT inspiration projects for FarmQuest Country Christmas Challenge Blog with its Anything Goes Country Christmas (exterior holiday decorations and/or wintery elements or landscapes)
When: #3 starts December 7, 2023 and ends on January 5, 2024
What:
Notes:
1. buffalo plaid cardstocks (gray and white for top layer and a green and white for bottom base)= The Paper Studio by Hobby Lobby
2. die-cuts, enamel dots (are bright pink) and large foam sticker = Feelin' Frosty collection by Simple Stories; the snowflake die-cuts and 'brrrr' die-cut were colored with a lilac breeze alcohol marker from Nuvo)
3. the gray and white plaid has multiple colors and layers for a northern lights sky look = Arteza Everblend Art Markers and Nuvo alcohol markers (for light lavender/pink, different blues, a lilac grey)
4. bright pink glitter glue to adhere the snowflake die-cuts
