My take on this month's inspiration photo. I was inspired by the soft colors in the inspiration photo. I wanted to do my best to reproduce this photo with what I had.
I then took a grey ink pad directly to the brown tinted cardstock to give it more color and depth.
Now for the embellishments! I used the flower and leaf die-cuts from Altenew mini-delight sets "Apothecary Garden" and "Gardener's Corner."
To bring in a yellow element, since I didn't have any rain-boot embellishments, I cut the crate from the Gardners' Corner set out of yellow wood grain cardstock.
Pro tip: I only glued it together on the sides so it would be open on the inside so I could put flowers in it.
I used a pale pink ink to stamp the vases from the Apothecary Garden set on pink ombre cardstock. I did have to fussy cut these out.
I applied white pigment ink over the vases to give them that milk paint finish.
Unfortunately, I lost the photos of cutting and assembling the watering can, but I used the Altenew mini delight set "Watering Daisies" and cut the watering can from some grungy metal cardstock scraps.
I used a dark Teal blue ink to stamp the sentiment on a scrap of the wood cardstock.
I hope this month's photo inspired you! If you do any of these techniques, please remember to tag me on social media @scrappystampthefunup I'd love to see your work! See you next month!
