You Grow, Girl with Wanda

Hi there sweet and crafty friends! It’s Wanda here today on The Greetery Blog! Hope everything is going great in your corner of the world. We are enjoying the hot lazy days of late Summer here in Northern California. Ready for Autumn (always!). To share with you today, I made a fun gardening gloves card in shades of warm yellows and browns. This is peak gardening season so I thought this card was appropriate! This time of year I think of sunflowers and that was my inspiration…. You grow, girl! 

My finished card is a white A2 card base, layered with brown gingham and more white cardstock. I used the Garden Gear Gloves stencils and dies to create the pretty gardening gloves. I used pale yellow cardstock for the gloves. I used stenciling colors to mimic sunflowers and greenery. The accents are made from kraft cardstock. These are so much fun to stencil – the color possibilities are endless! 

I stamped the sentiment from the Way to Grow stamp set in brown ink onto a Pretext Banner Die. The background white layer was die cut from the Patchwork Background Die. I wrapped some twine around my layers before gluing them down. I also added a few yellow enamel hearts.

That’s it for my project for today. Wishing you a wonderful late Summer…. I hope you have a lovely and creative day. It’s always my pleasure to share with you, and I look forward to sharing with you again soon. In the meantime, keep on crafting!! XO Wanda
