How Does My Garden Grow

Greetings! It is time for a new challenge over at Inkspirational!  This week, we are creating projects around the photo inkspiration below.

For my card, I began by cutting down to size a green and white gingham check paper bag that a purchase came in.  The edges were distressed with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and the panel was adhered to the card base.  The mushroom image is from our sponsor for the month of July, "A Day for Daisies" who is offering a monthly prize to one lucky participant during the month of July.  The lady bugs and sentiment are from Gecko Galz.  A touch of ribbon, a few buttons and Liquid Pearls complete my card.  

We look forward to seeing your creations.  I hope you will pop over to Inkspirational for more creations to inspire you by the rest of the Design Team.  Best wishes, Yvonne

I'm glad I zoomed in on this to see the texture created by the paper bag background and distressing. You've created a magical scene with the mushroom and ladybirds , and the buttons are a great finishing touch. Marina

Hello Yvonne,
How unique to use a paper bag for your background, but what is more surprising is how fantastic it looks!
The toadstool is a wonderful image, and I love the little ladybugs, this is a great take on the inspiration photo.
