FQHSKCB #1 debut competition DT card with SMORES starts on 2 Jan 2024

Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity blog!

purpose: this personal blog posting is showcasing the first competition owner/DT project for the new FarmQuest HomeStyle Kitchen Challenges blog

when: #1 launches on January 2, 2024 at 12am central time/Chicago and will end at midnight on January 31, 2024; theme is anything food goes topics with an option to include country farmhouse vibes

what: Laugh with S'mores card

s'mores, extra marshmallows, campfire fork, fire pit are my food and related food equipment elements; the quilt print paper and distressed edges to the papers is my nod to country farmhouse vibes

notes:

1. Stampin' Up= for the bottom 2 layers: coral with white splatter print and the quilt print

2. Fancy Pants Designs= the stripe scrap and the cut-apart card with s'mores panel (that's been trimmed some using the decorative-edge scissors, distressed, inked, and the metal handle for the campfire fork was color-strengthened with a black marker; also add dash lines on each side of phrasing to bring some attention to the thin font

3. smiling face added to the stripe scrap to strengthen for the word 'laugh' in the sentiment on the cut-apart image focal

4. stash item= kraft paper

5. Art Skills = black dual-tip marker
