Muse Challenge #51 and Merry Monday #92 and Festive Friday #23

Happy Friday and
Happy Birthday Muse!


Jackie Rockwell (creator) is our Muse for this anniversary challenge with this gorgeous card for our inspiration. I am also submitting to this week's Merry Monday Challenge which was to use Red, Vanilla, Kraft and Chocolate with ribbon and to Festive Friday because I was inspired by the photo of the red barn and nature so pulling out Lawn Fawn's Winter Sparrows seemed fitting.

This is just darling. It seems very doable (except for possibly the coloring)mass producing cards around the holiday. I could also see switching up the characters and using it for other occasions. Thanks for the inspiration!
