2016 Taylored Expressions Sneak Peeks Day 2 - Picture Perfect - Smile and Sign of the Times

Hi Everyone!!

Welcome to the second day of sneak peeks from Taylored Expressions!! I am lovin these adorable Petite stamp sets combo (with die)!! For my first card today, I created this fun card using the Picture Perfect - Smile frame die and paired it with the adorable hens from the Happy Hens Combo small -- aren't these hens so so so cute?!! And the new Chicken Wire embossing folder is seriously just toooooo cute!! 


Here is a close up of these cutie hens - I added a little burlap ribbon to the middle and then a little distressing to the edges to make it more.... barnlike? lol! I also added some stickles to this card to give it some barn-chic!! :) Love how this turned out!!!
