More Gardening

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.

Before mounting the main panel onto the base, I tucked in some silver roses snuggled onto a leaf on both the left hand corners.

Thank you for visiting and I trust you have enjoyed  the cards i have posted.


Do feel free to visit the other design team members today and see how they have used the images - their names are on my side bar and linked to their blogs.
