A big congrats to Wanda, the Newest Featured Stamper! She has such a wonderful gallery & leaves such lovely comments. I chose THIS to case. I kept the wheelbarrow full of flowers & most of the layout, but I used different images, different colors & added some little birds on a branch.
For my wheelbarrow, I wanted a softer look, so I stamped it in gray. It made it very close to a "no line" coloring & because the flowers are small, made it a little harder to color. I did the same to the little birds on the branch & fussy cut both. After I had the front linen panel layered to a soft lavender one, I lined up where I wanted the wheelbarrow & stamped just the little swirls in gray on the bg.
Congrats again, Wanda! Thanks so much for looking. Closeups & Copic colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff

How colorful and springy. When I first saw it I thought of snow white right away, maybe her in the back yard gardening. I think it was the 2 sweeet little birds in your tree...LOVE them. I like your idea of stamping in the grey. I DOES soften things up and looks so nice, will have to give that a try, I never think of using different colors. Lovely card and Ty for your sweet words...TFS...:0)

What a beautiful card. I love this wheelbarrow, so pretty. I don't think I've seen such a pretty wheelbarrow in real life. And your wheelbarrow is filled with beautiful flowers.
