For Robin's super fun F4A challenge- Just Be Yourself!
I just harvested a variety of annual flowers and my absolute favorite are zinnia's!!! I have enough seeds to last a lifetime, so if you're interested in some, please send me a pm with your name & address and will send some your way.
The seed packet was stamped on copy paper and colored with prismacolor pencils. I fussycut out the middle and backed with acetate. Punched a heart shape from DP and positioned accordingly before folding into the packet.
Die cut the tabs on polkadots DP to attach the packet.
Added twine for interest and hand wrote Zinnia's
Thanks for looking.

What a delightful card. I love zinnias but have a terrible time with mildew when I get some that aren't mildew resistant. I think it is because of the humdity here.....like 100 percent. I bet yours are gorgeous.

Oh wow how clever is this. On first glance I though they were little critters....you can see I'm not much of a gardener. Jeannie this is very YOU and I love your colouring and design.

This took some time coloring in all those tiny leaves, but you did it so well! How cool to have a shaker card full of seeds that will end up beautifying the yard!

What a clever card!! I love the color combo - so organic, which of course is perfect for your theme - and the packet is so pretty and then of course, the shaker element! Well done, faved!
