~ Have A Sun Shiny Day ~

I am so honored to be asked again to be a guest designer for The Paper Nest Doll's.  I love chickens and am a country girl at heart so when I saw Ellie with her cute little hen, I knew I had to make a card with her.  Living on a cute little hobby farm with with my own brood of chickens would be a dream come true!

I created the woodgrain on the fence and the hen house by using Lawn Fawn's Stitched Woodgrain Backdrop to give my card stock the woodgrain look and coloring the card stock with E59 and E79 to give it the old barn wood color.  To make the fence I used Lawn Fawn's Picket Fence border.  I made the hen house by cutting and paper piecing the woodgrain card stock I had created.  My brood of hens love their little house!
