In the summer garden at Countryview challenges

Hello there! Wow July already! How did that happen? It'll be the school holibobs before we know it! Wow!!! Time really is flying!

Its a new challenge begining today at Countryview Challenges - Jane came up with this beautiful theme - in the summer garden. I have made a card using some stamps from Hobbyart plus brushos and pixie powders and distress inks.


I thought the flowers were so pretty and I have coloured them as the appear in my garden! 




Here'sa closer look... the individual flowers are such a pretty shape! And I like the definition.


I painted the leaves using peeled paint distress ink. I added some extra ones on having cut them out first and shaped them a little too!

I do hope you can be tempted to join us - the theme is perfect for this time of the year!

Check out what my teamies have made and link up here.

Big hugs

Rachel xx

    The extra layers really help giving a 3D depth to the flowers and transforms the look completely. Gorgeous, Rachel! xx
