Karen opted to use the butterfly clip as her animal and not have a wagon. She's filled the card with lots of gardening, farmhouse, vintage folk art/home economics elements that pack tons of charm!!!

Absolutely darling! Thanks so much, Karen!

A few credits to share are: (1) teal/aqua barn siding with chevron stripe paper is part of my last scrap section (The Paper Studio); (2) "life is better in the country" was cut from an ephemera piece; (3) the "TOY" stamp is  (2001 Stampin' Up); (4) the stars print and acorn print scraps (Lake Life paper pad); (5) the golden yellow scrap (My Mind's Eye--?); (6) the white with black short marks print is recycled/upcycled inside business envelope security paper!!! YES!!!; (7) covered wagon is free clipart printable (ClipArt Library website); and the shaggy longhorn in front of the wagon is a rub-on transfer!!!!

A tidbit to learn about Becca S:

I lived in metro Dallas, TX for two years before the big suburban sprawl. I used to take Saturday or Sunday drives to the 'little' farm towns like Parker, Wiley, and Sachse. I've toured the ranch house where the 80s-90s TV show "Dallas" was filmed. I also got to stand about 75 feet from a park scene being filmed in the North Dallas/Highland Park area that actress Victoria Principal was part of. That was super cool! I only watched for an hour. The crew was there for several hours but later in the episode, only about 3-5 seconds worth of that park scene were actually used!!! I was just 22-24 years old and came back to the Midwest after that brief time.
