Introducing Petite Places: Barnyard

Today's Papertrey December release countdown features the newest (and cutest, IMHO) set in the Petite Places line -- Barnyard. Let's have a collective "ooh" and "ahhh" because this is soooo stinking' adorable! (And then we can sit in a big circle crisscross applesauce and sing "Old MacDonald"!)

Petite Places: Barnyard, along with all of the other December release products, will be available for purchase at 10 pm EST on December 15 in the Papertrey Ink store.

I just can't get over the level of detail Betsy packs into her Petite Places series. Barnyard has a barn with working doors and loft window, several different animals (of course), as well as fencing, hay, a tractor, windmill, and silo.

The scene elements are all adhered to a Simply Chartreuse Scene It: Basic Backer die-cut.

I painted some liquid glue onto the backer and sprinkled in some Terra Textures wood flakes to help hide the folded parts of the pop-up elements.After putting the scene together, I glued on a Clear Tag Dome/Ornament.

The finished dome is adhered to a mason jar lid. Around the lid is a band of Pure Poppy Stripe patterned paper along with a simple triple-wrapped length of jute for a rustic touch.

I apologize for the loose roof. I must have fiddled too long on assembly such that the liquid glue dried a little. It popped loose after I had already adhered the dome to the backer. 

I love how the cute little tag turned out! I die-cut the tag shape from the Halloween Pin-Ups die set, then stamped a sentiment from Barnyard Sentiments. Next, I added the red checkerboard, which is part of the silo/ladder detail stamp in Petite Places: Barnyard. The sun rays and grassy hills were stamped with images from the previously released set On the Farm. 

I couldn't resist filling the jar with animal crackers, because, well ... because! (When else could you ever gift animal crackers?)
