IN THE GARDEN

Morning Everyone,

We have a new challenge starting over at Allsorts and the theme alongside Anything Goes is "In the Garden".


This gave me the chance to use two sets of unused dies,  The Greetery hollyhocks die and Honey Bee stamps wagon wheel.  I die cut the leaves and stems from white snippets and inked in green, but the flowers were all cut from snippets of coloured card and shaded in their centres.  The wagon wheel was die cut and when they were all assembled I added them to an embossed brick wall, which is a Stampin Up folder.

The sky was stencilled with Bashful Blue SU ink and a MFT stencil.

There are two prizes of Lavinia stamps:


I would like to enter:
Snippets Playground - All flowers were snippets

I might go in the garden later to do a bit of tidying.  Hubby will be at football so I will be having what we jokingly call a "luxury day".   Whatever you're doing this weekend I hope it's a good one and the weather is kind.

  3. Beautifully done cottage garden Lynne, we were actually looking for some Hollyhocks at a garden centre this week, all ours seem to have died out (or more likely eaten by rabbits).
