We're Rooting For You

Hello

Welcome to my little crafting place! 
I've been working with some of the brand new April releases from Spellbinders during the last few weeks so will be sharing what I've made over the next few days.
One of the new collections is the Propagation Garden Collection by Annie William, and honestly, I was so happy to get my hands on these dies - they are just so cool! 
 First up is this card using some of the little plants from the
and the cute jar from
 Laboratory Glassware 


I love the layers on the leaves and especially the roots in the 'water' - how cute is that?
 I just couldn't resist a pun for the sentiment - just perfect for a good luck card!

I inked up a sheet of white card on both sides using several green inks so that there was plenty of colour variation tand choice for where to place the dies. This meant I could cut the leafy shoots for the Lucky Bamboo stems on a really pale piece - I used to have some of these years ago. 
For the jars I inked up after cutting from white card.  I added some light blue mousse fot the jars and their outlines, and a swoosk of an aqua shade of ink for the water. 

Once I'd assembled all the jars and plants (adding dimension with tiny bits of foam where I could) I adhered them to my card base and added the pc generated sentiments
Finally I gave the 'water' a coat of Glossy Accents and crossed my fingers that it would dry without going messy!
 

 I really hope you like it!
