Country Livin’

Do you sometimes put something you are working on aside and think – oh I’ll get back to that? I know I have a stack of things and I recently went through it to clean up my craft room. I was excited when I found this card that I did during a shoe box swap. I had not done a nice job as I wanted on some of the parts since I was in a hurry and so was going to fix it when I got home. LOL Fast forward…. you know how that goes.

Well I got it done with a few changes since it had been so long, but I really like how it turned out.

I’m afraid I don’t have any information on who shared this project, but I still love the original card that inspired me.

Masculine cards are always great to have on hand and this set is a particular favorite of mine for the guys in my life.

Well that is it for today – stop back by tomorrow when I will be sharing a fun little treat that you can whip up for St. Patty’s Day or other special occasion. Till then… Happy Stamping!
