ColourQ Challenge # 173 & Simon Says Stamp



 I paper pieced the gloves, pots,  pruning
 sheers  and the main image.



I loved the colours in this week ColourQ, I have not had a chance to play in a while , happy I got the chance today.

Thanks for telling me Joyce!


 I saw this card Garden Basket Jenny made and I thought I had the same stamp. Mine is  different, and of course I don't color as well, but I think it turned out nice anyway. This is another new die I bought, it's not modern or anything but something about it I just love. I guess I am just getting older . I enjoyed making this one and might make a few more to have on hand it was very relaxing coloring for a change. The gloves are paper pieced with patterned paper. The stamps are from yep…Serendipity Stamps , 
Paper from Papertrey Ink, and the dies are 
Spellbinders Majestic Elements

You have a chance to win 20$ off your order 

Happy Birthday is also from Serendipity Stamps

  4. Such a beautiful card Marybeth - it conjures up images of a warm Summer day, pottering around the garden. No chance of that here in the UK, as we have lots of snow right now!
    Gorgeous colouring and a very attractive pair of gardening gloves (great paper-piecing)! Oooh, and I do love the ornate Spellbinders - they are fabulous.
    Hugs, Sylvia xx
