Garden Potting Sheds

      Here it is the end of the second week of the month and  new challenge is starting at FarmQuest.  Our underlying theme is always "Farm or Country" and this challenge we have a specific theme of "Garden Sheds or Potting Sheds."  

     I found this delightful clip art image which I printed in very light grayscale, and then colored with watercolor paints.  I added highlights to the sky, flowers, and colored the butterflies with gel pens.  Rather than die cutting the image, I tore the edges revealing the white center of the CS and I used pale blue chalk on the white bits of the torn edge.

     The background dp came from an old Recollections stack.  I printed the sentiment, cut it with an Avery Elle die, and layered it onto the background along with the image.  A pretty simple card but one which allows the image to take center stage.


     Challenges:

     Feel free to come and play along in our challenge this fortnight.  Any garden shed or potting shed will qualify for an entry.  

     Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie
