For this week's two-border CAS challenge. I stamped the pot and then masked it, stamped the sprouts border, masked that, then used torn paper to mask and sponge "furrows" in the dirt. I then over-stamped the furrows with my go-to textures stamps (dots and flourishes). After removing the masks, I stamped the sentiment and colored the pot.
This is also for the second LoveFest challenge from Stamp Bella, to show spring. I've only two Bella stamps, and neither work for the theme. So. I used images from Our Craft Lounge, which, sadly, is out of business.

I love your view of dirt! I don't know if you meant for it to look like a cross section but it does to me. I love the worm and mice holes; so full of life as it should be. Boy am I itching to get out in the garden! :-) Thanks so much for a glimpse of spring (before its time judging by what's currently outside my window).

What a lovely little scene! Love how you created the dirt. Your little scene and sentiment have me craving Spring. I can't wait for the smell and look of Spring but since I was just out yesterday raking snow off our roof, I don't think it will be here anytime soon.
