I stamped the Green Thumb veggies onto Neenah solar white, and water-color cardstock, then used the Green Thumb II dies to cut them out. I wasn't sure which coloring style I'd like most.
First up: water-colored:
Oh I do love these images!!! Especially the peas... love the embossed dirt... it may be new =\
Then really simply colored with Tombow water-based pens:
Well... I kinda dig them both... no gardening pun intended =]
Sending this last one over to Kim at Paper Smooches for the Sparks, Anything Goes Challenge! Kim has a pretty punny sense of humor =] If I'm lucky enough to win? I'm heading back to get Vegtastic... I love it so mulch.
Michele, these are both so stinking adorable! Love, love, love them. Thanks so much for playing with us at PaperSmooches Sparks!
ReplyDeleteWell golly...it's hard to decide which I like best, both coloring styles look terrific Michele! These are both fabulous and the dirt...nifty!I Seriously need some of those "Sweet Peas" for little Miss you know who!!
ReplyDeleteGoodness Michele, I am digging these two cards too, pun intended! I love those vegies and I love how you have colored them. They look so real and so cute. Hugs Brenda
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable! I love both styles - they give the veggies a different feel! Love your zig-zag 'spikes', too!
ReplyDeleteFun - super well done and just so expertly styled!! You are amazing - I think you can wield any stamp set you want to and make a winner card with it!! Kudos to you!!!
ReplyDeleteThese are both so FUN!!! LOVE your embossed dirt! You totally rock your embossing folders. :)
ReplyDeleteI was wondering how you can use vegetables on card, and now everything is clear. Great card, funny.

Fresh from your garden? So cute Michele!
ReplyDeleteYou have a harvest of cute happening here, Kim! Glad you didn't invite us to choose a favourite as, like you, I did them both! The pea pod, stuffed with its roly-poly peas, and the chubby little carrot...too gosh darn cute!
ReplyDeleteLove these!
Hugs~c
These are just too darn cute...love your yummy looking garden!
ReplyDeleteThese are both soooo cute, Michele ... and so fun ... delicious veggies, the furrowed dirt is brilliant and I love those pea tentrils climbing the 'trellis'! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteAren't you a good girl liking your vegies so much!! I would never eat them when I was younger and don't eat that many now (I'm a fruit girl). If they looked this cute though, I would eat them for every meal!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome watercolouring!!! Let's share some dirt but this ain't dirt, Michele! :) :)
ReplyDeleteOMG OMG OMG!! These are BOTH AWESOME!! LOVE the Stamping and such BEAUTIFUL Coloring that you did!! What FUN Designs and its HARD to pick a Favorite, I LOVE them BOTH!! =) THANKS SO MUCH for joining us on the Paper Smooches SPARKS Challenge Blog and I hope you'll join us again this week!! =) Have a FABULOUS Easter Sunday!! =)
ReplyDeleteI was so sure I was going to like the watercolored ones better but I think they both have their place, depending on the mood you're trying to create. Love the dirt, too.
ReplyDeleteI kinda dig them too. Your EF is perfect and so smart. I smile when I visit your blog, you are sure to show me something fun and often innovative. Well done.
ReplyDeleteWow, what fun images! I "dig" them too! Both cards are soooo amazing. Love the 'scalloped' dirt and the tendrils on the peas climbing your clever trellis! Both coloring styles look fantastic so you're a winner with either one!
ReplyDeleteoh wow, I love both coloring techniques, but there is just something about the watercolored ones are are amazing. thank you so much for playing with the paper smooches sparks challenge.
