Catered Crop–Map It Recipe Swap

Get out the map get out the map and lay your finger anywhere down
We'll leave the figuring to those we pass on our way out of town ~ The Indigo Girls

 

The Catered Crop has another fun recipe swap – MAP IT!   Using maps in crafting projects is a hot trend.    For this swap, break out those map papers or even a real map and get crafty!

For my card, I dug into some October Afternoon papers that I had stashed away.   The Road Maps collection had some fun map-themed papers that I used for this project.
