Our TPT recipient this week is Donnie. He is dealing with a very serious health condition. I read that he has always loved gardening so I depicted him harvesting his giant, hybrid carrots! Didn't have any vegie stamps or die-cuts so I free-hand cut the carrots and tops from dp. Also paper pieced Donnie's hat, overalls and pocket. It was fun to make and I hope it adds a smile and a moment of "happy" to his day.
THANKS for looking!
