Barrow of Birthday Wishes

I hope you’re having a beautiful Easter weekend friends!


I realize that it's really the wrong season for this design, but sometimes you’ve just got to go where the inspiration strikes.  I think this pretty image from Power Poppy Fall Haul Digital is so great with that wheelbarrow bursting with pumpkins and gourds.  Blue and orange make such a nice colour combo too - so I coloured the wheelbarrow with an aged blue look. I wanted to use some woodgrain designer paper, but the woodgrain was just a bit too yellow looking, so I took my W1 copic marker to  get the tone in the paper to more of a warm grey to match the sahara sand paper.  


That perfect sentiment is from Power Poppy’s polymer set Go Wild  I curved it a bit to make it work with the oval of the main image, added a couple enamel dots and some twine to match.
