MAY07VSND - FRI 9pm - Landscape Designer for a Day - Chat Thread
Landscape Designer for a Day
Maiden Hostess: beadfreak22 (Katherine)
Code/Keyword:
MAY07VSND
Time: FRI 9 pm
Here�s your chance to be a Landscape Designer for a Day! In this challenge, you will
design the landscape for a family home . Show us the view from above (birds-eye view), or from the front (head-on view). You are completely in charge, and the sky�s the limit!
You will decide where to place flowers, bushes, trees, and/or grass. Would you like to include a patio, a bench, or a pond? Go ahead! Use any items or techniques you like. Do you prefer the tranquil simplicity of a Zen Garden, or the natural look of a wildflower garden? Do you like lots of bright colors, or the more understated look of just a few? Is there a path in your yard? Where does it lead? Show me!
The first thumbnail is a card made by LovinTX -- thank you, Christine!

The fence is the hardest thing to do, well that and cutting out the lillies:rolleyes: Kittie's technique for the tree is wonderfully easy, there's really not much stamping involved!

I don't know who Kittie is, but her technique rocks! I'd love to get the directions at some point.

Thank you so much for letting me use your card as one of my samples, Christine! In the mad rush to get my challenge posted, I had trouble figuring out how to label your thumbnail to credit you for your beautiful work. Just wrote it in at the end of the challenge.

Go to the resources page and find "watercolor Landscapes" the only part of the techniqe I did was the tree (And I've had some practice at it) so it was pretty quick for me.
