Monday Montage - Storybook Garden Patch








Woot! Woot! Monday Montage Time is here again … I always love this hop as everyone who participates always inspires me to try new things!



Pretty sure I have bought every single stamp set/bundle that Stampin’ Up has put out highlighting fruit since I started almost 25 years ago. Veggies, too! I just love them!

I colored several little bunches of strawberries from Storybook Garden Patch using my Stampin’ Blends. Lucky for me there is a coordinating die, so cutting them out was super slick.

I also stamped and cut out some flower pots from the same set and highlighted them with a little bit of Pecan Pie using Blends again.

I used a blending brush and some Granny Apple Green to create a soft background. Once I had “colored” the background I then did the flicking trick with my Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. I also used a watercolor brush to drip and flick bits of water onto the background to give more depth and texture.

Once again, I used my paper snips to rough of the edges of the Granny Apple Green layer.

I also used one of the frame dies from Storybook Friends to highlight the center image and sentiment.

This is probably one of my favorite cards I had made lately. I guess I never got over liking to color … it’s so cathartic for me!
