Craft a Scene - Make Your Own Garden - Final Week

This is our final week of the May "make your own garden" challenge. To help us celebrate the end of winter, our challenge this month is to create your own flower garden scene. 

We want to see lots of flowers in a garden scene and please don't forget that we are expecting your scene to be stamped (or digi) with background and foreground elements.

I have an email entry from Margaret:

Margaret from Huddersfield in Yorkshire here once again with my entry for the Garden Challenge.  

I created the background using a brayer, torn paper and Adirondack inks.  I used a variety of stamps, including Hobby Art and Clarity and used Distress inks  and a damp brush to add the colour.  The lady is from Clarity and I coloured her using Liquid Pearls to which I added a little water, then I cut her out and attached her over the stamped image to give dimension.

The wonderful and talented Craft a Scene design team has created cards to show what we mean by a garden scene.

Craft a Scene Hills and Mountains Winners!

We had really wonderful "Hill and Mountain" scenes to enjoy this month.  We had a wonderful variety between linked projects and email (4 of them) projects.  It is always tough to choose the top 3!

I also find it difficult to limit myself to just three top entries as there are so many really wonderful scenic stampers who enter this challenge.  Be sure to take our badge to add to your blogs (if you have one). 

Here are the selections for the top three for April.

#3 - Karen

#11 - Scrap Affair

#12 - Carola

Beautiful cards everyone!  I will be back in a few moments with our next challenge.

Hills and Mountains eMail Entries

I have two email entries to share with you for the Hills and Mountains challenge.  The first is from Jan P. You can find her on Split Coast Stampers under the name Janelli.

Our second entry is from Margaret in Yorkshire and she writes, "I created my card using a brayer and various Adirondack inks for the sky and foreground, adding a moon mask,  Then I used torn paper and the same inks to create the mountains and hills.  With Versafine onyx black I stamped the trees and small figures, and finished with eggplant ink and some Cut n Dry to sponge around the edges.  Dawn and I don’t have any Scene-scape stamps so we have to create all our scenes from scratch.  Hope you like the card."

****Updated*****

I just received two new cards from Dawn.

Stamped with HobbyArt stamps and coloured with watercolour pencils (except the window frame, which is Clarity coloured with promarkers).  The sheep have been given their fleeces courtesy of "fluffy stuff"!

Yes, we love both of these great entries!  Thank you ladies.
