Garden Wheel Barrow from All Dressed Up Stamps for Little Patch of Craft Friends Challenge #253 on the 4th of May, 2025


Hi All!
Welcome to my post about my card for challenge #253, the 4th of May 2025 challenge for the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge Blog.

Here is my card:

Our sponsor for this challenge is All Dressed Up Stamps:
Prize is 2 images

I chose Garden Wheel Barrow which I have digitally printed on to X-Press It Blending card and die cut with Scalloped Squares Die from La-La Land Crafts, before colouring with the following Copics markers:
  • flowers - RV11, RV14, RV17, Y11, Y15, Y17, YR12, YR24, YR18
  • leaves - YG03, YG23, YG17
  • wheel barrow - Y21, E93, E95, E97, E99, C1, C3, C5
  • spade - E13, E15, E17, B14, B16, B18
  • bird - B12, B14, B16
  • dirt - E31, E55, E57, E59
As usual, I have taken inspiration from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and her fantastic monthly classes and bonus classes.

Here is a close up of the colouring:

I then adhered the coloured image on to a Kraft square card from Envelope Solutions.
Here is another photo of the finished card:

    I love the coloring. I love what you've done to the wheelbarrow in making it look rusty and the flowers are beautiful. So glad you joined us at The Creative Crafters.
