Gardening George

Afternoon everyone, I hope it's a lovely day wherever you are.  It's breezy here and not as warm as it has been in Middlesbrough but at least the sun is shining.

Well here's a 8 x 8 card for you, made for my mum to give her step son-in-law who's turning 60 this week. He loves gardening so I immediately thought of George, he's a cute character and I've had him for years in a collection of coloured and non-coloured digi's from Charmed Cards & Crafts - they still sells these character collections on their website and well worth a look.  I opted for the pre-coloured digi for speed and concentrated on the background.

The background layout is a right mix of things all created using Serif's CraftArtist 2. The background scene and the little elements are from Polkadoodles 'Cherryblossom Lane' along with a typed sentiment.  I added a shadow to everything give a little bit of depth. George and the grass were printed off a few times, cut out and layered up. No glitter was used in the making off this card....lol!

Hopefully he'll like the card. - hope you do too.

Thanks for visiting.
