Scrapbook Border

It's that time of year when lots of picnics, gatherings, and outdoor parties are going on.
Our fabrics can also be used in scrapbooking.  
Here is an idea for those of you who like to scrapbook.



The food items were taken from this fabric.


The base of the border was created from the Brother Scan-N-Cut machine.
We sell those bases at the Farmhouse as well.


Here are more ideas to use this base . . . 


Here are the fabrics used for the above borders.




Here are some cards made from a new fabric here at the Farmhouse.





Rachel created these cards from these fabrics
.

She also made this wall-hanging using the above fabric . . . 


along with other fabrics including this one.


It's warm out!  Hope you are staying cool!

Crazy Birds and Elegant Christmas

Rachel's creative mind never stops!
She was making fresh lemonade the other day and was about to throw the lemon bag away when creativity struck again!  She used this bag that held the lemons . . .


. . . to make these cards.




She used this crazy-bird fabric to make the cards.


As Rachel always says -  the world is wide!

On an earlier blog post, we showed you a sample of some of the new Christmas fabric we got in at the farmhouse.  Here are some more cards showing those same fabrics.





We used this die for the fence on the inside of the card.


There is a special way to do this fence to make it pop up from the card.
But if that seems too complicated to do, this die looks great laying flat as well.

We hope you are enjoying your summer!
