Keep it Krafty !


This card was inspired by all the seeds I planted, which are growing well now and will be so beautiful this summer. The Cheery Lynn flourish dies reminded me of the Sweet Peas, so when I saw this seed package stamp set by Artistic Outpost in my stash, I knew what I wanted to do for the Cheery Lynn challenge http://cheerylynndesignschallenge.blogspot.ca/2013/06/cheery-lynn-designs-challeng-85-keep-it.html
I cut a bunch of the mini Cheery Lynn Flourishes and some leaves from the regular sized Cheery Lynn Flourish to intersperse with the flowers I hand cut using decorative scissors (now that's something I don't ever use). I painted some Gesso on a piece of burlap and sewed some twine through it ( after I took all the glue off the needle I usually use to unclog Glossy Accents ). All the patterned paper is MME from the Stella & Rose line.The card base and the seed package are kraft cardstock.

 I'm way behind on seeing all the beautiful things my blogging friends have created. Sorry! I'm having a horrible time with migraines again or should I say as usual, and I can only use the computer in very small doses. It has taken me days to post this, so I'll catch up with you all as soon as I can.

I'm also entering this card in the Loves Rubberstamps challenge : http://www.lovesrubberstampschallenges.com/2013/06/challenge-57-summer-theme.html
