Gardening on the scale of Lou De La Schmoo requires the big guns...a tractor! I found this old International Harvester to ride to the Tea Party, which explains my fashionably late arrival. With a missed gear here, a popped clutch there and quite a bit of smoke I brought every veggie that I could find. Sweet corn, beets, carrots, tomatoes, peas, cucumbers and squarsh. Yes I brought squarsh, because you said squarsh - butternut and pumpkins. A couple of bushels of apples to boot, so those of you (not us - snort) watching your bikini figures don't have to fill up on cookies. Cornfused? Come over to the Tuesday Tea Party and fill in the blanks: MMTPT145 ~ JAKE GET THE RAKE! JOE GRAB THE HOE! REGGIE ATE THE VEGGIES! by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers
Stamped the image from Times and Seasons in Chocolate Chip and colored in Copics, then sponged in sky and grass. Matted in Always Artichoke (more veggies tee hee) Stamped the corn from Farm Fresh in True Thyme (do herbs count?), colored in Copics cut out and popped up two on glue dot. Cut the Veggies with Cricut Country Life. Mounted all on a GKD Sweet Corn card (I can't help myself - more veggies!). Stamped the Verve sentiment on a celery (veggie!) scrap in Bamboo leaves, sponged and punched. PT - 10
Thanks so much for looking and have a peaceful day.

Great image, love the veg down the side. And I'm thinking that all those herbs are going to add some wonderful flavourings to the salads and whatever else we cook up with all those beautiful vegetables you've brought along. And if you're a bit late - isn't SLOW food the fashion these days, so you're just on trend .

Yep, yep, herbs count. At least they'd better cause I brought some too. I love that tractor image. They always make the fields seem so much more picturesque. Wonderfully done!

Marzi is it time to harvest those fabulous vegetables? I could go for some sweet corn on the cob right about now. What a great image. Your garden vegetables and flowers are growing in profusion. I love your veggie embellishments. This is just darling and a creative masterpiece.

Very clever! I like all those veggies, and great job with the fussy cutting. Awesome colors and coloring. Feels like harvest time!
