Guest Designer for Theme #7's REMINDER post is= Mags B or Maggie Brinkley

Some personal info about Mags shared on her blog: from the UK; She volunteers at her church to help with a baby club and a toddler club. Her interests are birdwatching, cricket, cross stitch, needlepoint, writing, and reading besides terrific cardmaking. 

She's on several design teams and we are very lucky that she's made this card for FarmQuest! 

Inspiration project from Guest Designer Mags:

Mags shared a few lines with me about how she created this cute cottage/farmhouse scene: The card is mostly made with images fussy-cut from an old Stamperia paper pad; I made the water barrel by transferring an image onto card that I stamped with a woodgrain background by Altenew then added shading by sponging Distress Inks on top.  The bands are cut from silver card. 

Very clever and such a cute setting. Looks like a wonderful home that is very active with abundant flowers, worn work boots, more than 1 watering can and their own water barrel! Marvelous!

A few credits are: Simple Stories card kit   (for the background paper panel, the sentiment focal, the boots and watering can ephemera); purple glitter butterfly die-cut is from Studio 112 for Spotted Canary; the yellow layered butterfly has been in my stash for awhile; and the barrel is free clipart image from Clipart Library website that I printed on kraft paper and applied gold stamp pad ink. The white card base is from the kit. The 2 required elements are stacked on the right side which with the other elements and prints gives a spring outdoor garden look to this greeting card!
