From the Garden



A lovely little pit stop today in the garden at Flourishes, with this set From the Garden.  This was released a year or so ago and it has the loveliest images!  Illustrated by the gardening guru herself Marcella Hawley :)

I remember the first time I saw this image I had to ask what this was.  It's a gardening cloche designed to protect fragile flowers like this pretty orchid.  Then it all made sense to me!

I've colored it up with Copics to match this pretty MME paper called Fiddlesticks, framing it out with some gorgeous Spellbinders dies Artisan Tags and accents.  


Accents are Nestabling rhinestones, pleated satin plisse ribbon, braided cording trim and MME Blush Buttons, plus a tiny little resin flower accenting the sentiment below.  

Join the DT as they share their Flourishes Free For All creations with From the Garden today!

Christine, you sure do know how to layer things on your creations, without making them look crowded. I always fail there. ;) There are so many pretty details here!
