Hello - yes another garden themed card - this time with a darling image by Jessica Grundy under the label of Solocosmo, part of McMahon Five Design.com, called Betty In Her Garden
And why so many cards on one day? - because it is New Release Day over at McMahon Five Design.com

I painted Bettiy with twinkling H2Os and was very happy with the results.
In this photo you can get and idea of the depth of glimmer these paints give, particularly on the hat. I finished by sponging a very light blue ink around the image.
Betty was double mounted on light and then dark blue cardstock, and lace and silver cord were added to the dark blue.
I used a pale blue card for the base, and added these two strips of card that I had experimented with a wax paper cuttlebug resist technique years ago. Here is a link to a 'how to' tutorial.
Thank you for visiting and I trust you have enjoyed the cards i have posted.

Oh wow Maxine.... I'm loving these gardening cards! LOVE all the shimmer you get with your twinks! I don't have enough colors to do an entire pic with them so I tend not to use them much. You sure make me wish I had gotten more! Love those silver flowers and your lace is beautiful! I was just thinking about the wax paper resist the other day but didn't do it... thanks for the reminder!!! Great card Maxine! Have a great weekend.... and spring is coming soon for you!!! Hang on!!! :)
