This card is shortly on it's way to hopefully cheer up Donnie who is having health problems.
Flourishes seed packet was stamped first then masked, peas were next then masked, then beets etc, and lastly carrots. The veges were coloured with copics and the message was hand written. The cute little garden spade is from a japanese dollar store.

Beautifully done!! Love the deep color of those vegetables and I have always loved those seed packet stamps although I don't have any! The raffia and tiny spade are wonderful touches.
