Gardeners Know The Best Dirt!

Hi everyone! Happy Thursday!!

Here is a card I created using this week's Card Positioning Systems sketch, CPS170!! I had WAY to much fun making this card!

Tons of new MFT goodies were calling my name and I just HAD to sit down and make a card!!!

I started by stamping this DARLING new PI girl, Mud Buddies, in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Neenah Solar Crest Cream and I colored her with Copic Markers. I cut out and embossed the panel with Rectangle Nestabilities and sponged the edges with Memento Canteloupe. I then added two rows of My Favorite Felt - Earth Girl cut from Die-Namics Fresh Cut Grass. I am in LOVE with Die-Namics!!! I finished off the panel with two red brads.

I used two different patterns of My Minds Eye Quite Contrary paper on my card, both polka dot patterns but I like how they work together. The scallops are My Favorite Felt - Banana Split cut from Jumbo Scallop Die-Namics. I stamped the sentiment, "Gardeners Know The Best Dirt", also from Mud Buddies, on this panel. I simply inked up one portion at a time and lined it up so it went across the panel.

I cut out the sun with some of the same My Minds Eye Quite Contrary paper using the Die-Namics Sunshine, and cut the center, also using Die-Namics Sunshine, using Prism Candlelight Medium. I ran the center panel through the Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots Embossing Folder and sponged the edges of both with Memento Canteloupe to make them pop a bit.

Thanks SO much for stopping by!!
