Week 303: FARM

It's time to take a trip to the country!  Lot's of possibilities with this week's cue word and the gallery will soon be filled with lots of fresh inspiration!

As always, remember the following CAS guidelines when creating your design:

1. One main image
2. Lots of open space, uncluttered
3. Limited layers & embellishments
4. Quick & easy to recreate (Note: It may take a while to create a design you like, but once you have that design, making more should be a piece of cake!)

Let's see what the design team and this week's guest designer created for inspiration!
