Garden of Life

Hello and happy Monday morning to you! My card today is one I showed at the release party last week. I used images from What's the Dirt.

I used Copic markers to color, starting with RV25.

Added RV21.

I used YG05 on the leaves and Y17 for the centers.

To color the wheelbarrow, I started with C5.

Added C3.

Filled in with C1.

I used W3 on the handles and added E55 around the edges to make it look a bit rusted.

On the seed back, I started by filling it with YG21 and V01.

Then added YG25 and V04.

I used rectangle nestabilities to cut out the image, then sponged Memento Cantaloupe ink while still in the die.

Added a drop shadow around the wheelbarrow with B00 and used N1 to add a shadow to the ground.

I layered with Pure Luxury Wild Dandelion and used designer paper from the StampTV kit.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you have a happy day!
