It's another lovely day here and my thoughts are turning towards the garden, which is where I should really be making a start but instead I've been clearing my desk a little and using up some of the flowers which I did cut recently and which weren't all used at the time. This time I did more die cutting and cut out a wheelbarrow and watering can. Also a die was used to cut the detail into the background layer. I started by cutting the layer to fit my 5 x 7 card and cut out the patterned area, backing it with a slightly larger piece of green to tone with the leaves on the flowers. The wheelbarrow was cut from some snippets of dark grey card which came from one of my bits boxes and had some sort of glimmer finish applied sometime in the past - no idea what was used but I thought it looked metallic, so suited the purpose nicely. The watering can and sentiment were cut from some really small snippets. At least now I've finally used up the surplus snowdrops and crocus die cuts while it's still Spring.
Background - cut using a die from a Tim Holtz Mixed Media die set
Wheelbarrow and Watering Can - unbranded dies which I've had for a while
Sentiment - an unbranded die from Temu
