TCP Tuesday #338 Challenge


The TCP Tuesday challenge at The Cat's Pajamas is going strong. The theme this month is How Does Your Garden Grow?

I have two cards today that look remarkably alike. I created the first one with the watering can, decided I didn't like the watering can on it so I created another without it. But then after looking again I decided the watering can looked ok. The hubster even said that he liked it the best. Not that i am going by his taste. If I did we would have a red plaid couch, an orange chair and a purple ottoman sitting all in front of a TV the size of Connecticut. 


I stamped the solid flower image from the Sketchy Flowers set three times along the edges of Neenah cardstock rectangle using pale peony ink and the outline leaves in black. I colored the leaves and the added more color to the flower petals with Copic Markers, then offset stamped over the solid flower with the outline stamp. I masked one of the flowers and stamped the watering can image from the What's Up Gnomie? set. After coloring the image, I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Stacked Sentiments set. Lastly I stamped an image from the Watercolor Basics all around the flowers and leaves. The image panel was attached to the card base with a layer of craft foam. 


For second version, I essentially did the same thing adding a few more leaves, eliminating the watering can image and moving the sentiment down.

  2. Nancy! Of course, I love them both ... but what can go wrong with these lovely blooms? Or to say 'thinking of you'? Lovely.
