CCEE2014 ~ Garden Month!

Hi friends!

 It's a brand new month and our hostess at the CCEE Stampers

 for the month of April is Frances.

She has a wonderful challenge for all of us ~ 

Garden Month! 

Wherever life plants you, bloom with grace. ~ Old French Proverb

According to the Days of the Year web site, April is Garden Month.

 So the challenge this week is be inspired by a Garden .... 

flowers, plants, trees, insects, garden shed, etc. 

Anything that you might find in a garden is good for this challenge.

 

Even though we are social distancing, it's always nice to be in the backyard

and take walks around the block where flowers are blooming here.

 I love sunflowers!

I naturally fell head-over-heels in love with the Birdie Brown Sunflower Sweetheart

and it's perfect for a visit to the garden ~ and on a card :)

I've colored the images with prismacolor markers and copic markers,

alternating colors.

I created the grass by taking a piece of plain white cardstock

and using distress oxide ink in Peeled Paint and cut with a die.

I left the green 'grass' purposely peeking out beneath the white top layer

and added the images, popped up on foam.

I've decorated the inside as well but can't show it just yet 

since I'm sending this to a friend!

For all of the Design Team cards, please head over to the blog here!

Thanks for stopping by!
Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥
