A few years ago Fixer Upper starring Chip and Joanna Gaines swept the nation and everything farmhouse was suddenly -- and still is -- in. I must admit I've loved "country" and "farmhouse" long before Chip and Joanna hit the home improvement scene. I think it was because of my roots. My parents both lived on farms when they were young and I still have fond memories of visiting the farm houses of my relatives. I'm so glad Stampin' Up! jumped on the bandwagon with the Country Home Stamp Set. Today's tutorial features this stamp set which can be found in the Holiday Catalog, along with the fun Chicken Wire Elements.
