One Stamp at a Time - Falling for Farmhouse

 Good Morning, Stampers!

Welcome to the One Stamp at a Time October Blog Hop!

We are so glad you are joiing us for this month's theme - Falling for 

Farmhouse. It's such a popular design trend and fun to 

incorporate it into our papercrafting! 

The Country Woods designer paper is the perfect base for 

creating with a Farmhouse look! I picked up this frame at the

Dollatree and created a matching card featuring the 

Decorative Tree and Peaceful Season bundles. Of course, 

a farmhouse-style project wouldn't be complete without

a little black buffalo check! 

SU!pplies:
Stamps: Peaceful Season, Decorative Trees

Ink: Shaded Spruce, Wild Wheat, Basic Gray

Paper: Basic White, Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce, Smoky Slate, Country Woods DSP

Accessories: Peaceful Season dies, Decorative Trees dies, Black/Vanilla ribbon, Designer Tag dies
