The first time that I spotted the stamp set Country Livin' in the Stampin' Up! 2016 – 2017 Annual Catalog, I knew that I would eventually have to purchase it to make a card for my daughter. She loves Kip Moore Concerts & she has a group of friends that are just as passionate. They are up for Country Music Concerts anytime that they can score tickets.
Long story short, Beth's husband Jason had a deal for a Kip Moore concert in Nashville. He took the deal and surprised Beth with the tickets. She & several friends are headed to Nashville this week. I am just hoping that my card arrives before they depart!

After being in Salt Lake City last week, I returned home with a box of peaches which meant a lot of work for me because my intention was to can them & share the bounty with the family! Of course, it was the inspiration for my card today.
