In the Garden

Hello crafters, 
This fortnight, the Allsorts challenge optional theme, chosen by Gail is "In the Garden". As usual, you can also enter with an "anything goes" theme.

I had the perfect stamps and dies for this one! I grabbed a bargain bundle from Crafter's Companion and thought the elements would surely come in handy at some point


The focal image is created with stamps and die from the Country Lane Garden Gateway and the flower pots are from the Perennials set, also Country Lane.
I used watercolour pencils and a wet brush for the colouring throughout.

***********
Hop over to the Allsorts challenge blog to see all the DT inspiration and upload your projects. There are two prizes of Lavinia stamps pictured below for a lucky winner!



Thanks for coming by,
