Herb Garden

One of the things that I love about Unity's Kit of the Month is the variety of styles of images to choose from. The silhouettes in this stamp are so beautiful & I love the coordinating watering can! I used some of Jenni Bowlin's Buttercup paper (from her Front Porch collection) and yes - you guessed it - paired it with denim. I just love the fresh country feel of the two of them together.


I embossed the watering can is embossed in silver & I added a little button embellishment. The ribbon was just gathered and sewn in place. The sketch comes from this week's CPS layout. I didn't have any matching flowers, so I used a white Kaiser flower and colored it in with Copics.


Thanks for checking out my latest project! Your next stop on Unity's Blog Hop is......
