Featuring my FQCCCB #11.5 AGCC theme reminder DT card on 21 Aug 2024

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

purpose: The purpose of this post is to feature my latest owner/DT contribution to FQCCCB or FarmQuest Country Christmas Challenges blog. Every month's theme is AGCC or anything goes country Christmas.

when: #11.5 is the reminder notice posting; competition #11 started August 7 and will end on September 5, 2024

what: Snowy-Surrounded Country Church Christmas card



notes: 

1. card cover panel was recycled; I tore the scene to create a new 'perimeter' (distressing/adding to a vintage-old look); the card was printed by Lang and the artwork is by Sam Timm (2011)

2. ivory cardstock was cut to 5" deep x 7" high = Neenah

3. blue paper = Pen + Gear

4. Navy blue alcohol marker = Arteza

5. navy pearl gems and blue foam snowflake stickers = stash
