This is for Color Challenge 104. I stamped my little girl image, painted them and then masked. I sponged celery around for the ground area and sketched in the trees. I used a mini tip sponge applicator to apply celery and olive leaves and ground cover and then used the same tool to apply the flowers in the grass and along the hedge. I sponged saffron around the trees and flowers to highlight the area and to make the girls stand out. My little girl in the green dress almost blends in too much with the celery grass area but I still like it. I used cb textile embossing folder on the celery layer and ran it over the ink pad to add color and tecture. The main layer is stamped with canvas bg.

What a precious friendship card! I love the image of the girls telling secrets in the garden. Lots of great texture and pretty colors. Don't you just love those deckle scissors?
