A note for you!

For this weeks DT challenge we have been asked to create any type of project using our Cricut and adding any form of hens and chicks. Being a complete country girl this is right up my alley. All of the images on my card are from A Country Life cartridge. As with most of my projects, I started by setting up the images and their layers on my Gypsy. The sun and hills background and layers are cut at 3 inches
I laid out the papers and cut out.
The chickens and layers are cut at 1.75 inches.
I inked most of the edges before assembly. I made a background of light blue and tan to attach the hills to then added the chickens with dimensionals. The sentiment and butterfly stamps are from Close To My Heart.
A button, twine and some stitching lines and I called it done. I hope you like my little taste of country life and come back to see what great projects my DT partners have for you.
