This is for two challenges- LSC193 Fun Shapes and FS92. My good friend, Wendy Weixler- aka Wendybell is our featured artist today. I loved her layout for this card WMW Get Well Tea by Wendybell at Splitcoaststampers and thought it was perfect to use for a new set I got recently -Celebration Feast from Close to my Heart. There are several wonderful images in this set of children-pilgrims and Indians and a beautiful turkey. I fell in love especially with this girl harvesting her crop and thought the cornucopia full of the fall harvest veggies was perfect to use on the circle layer.
I stamped the girl in image once on the watercolor layer and once again on scrap watercolor paper to cut out her arms and head to pop up. I painted with reinkers. I painted the ground area of the garden with caramel paint and then used a grass sprig image from my Kittie Kits Outdoor Master to create the grassy field around her. I sketched in the fence in the background with my artist pen, The sky was sponged with both brocade blue and banana. I wanted the girls sleeves and knee area of her dress and apron to book dirty as it really would were she kneeling in the dirt gardening. I used a dry brush to paint on caramel ink over these areas. I used a white gel pen to add some white to the painted gray hat, shirt and apron. I love this simple little harvest scene.
