barrow

I am SO ready for spring. I have been dying to get this stamp by Gina K. Every-time I saw a card with it I wanted it more. When I was placing my order at www.allthatscraps.com I was SO excited to see she is carrying Gina K.’s line!

So in my basket it went! As well as a bunch of other goodies.

I bought this patterned paper from there called Farmers Market by Flair Designs. Its a 12×12 piece with several different “seed” packets. When my order arrived I noticed that one of the seed packets matched the flowers in the wheel barrow! So I cut that one out, and one thing lead to another. Now, here is the final product! This card is 5 1/2 x 5 1/2. The Prima is also the same flower. Used the seed packet for the total inspiration of this card.

My Natural vanilla card-stock is stamped in weathered bkgd, and DTP the edges. The saffron layer is cuttlebugged with the stylized flowers, then rubbed with white craft ink, and colorbox chalk ink on the leaves. Ribbon is May Arts. On the barrow I stamped in brown stazon, then used my white singlo pen for the flowers. Colored using WWC, and blender pen.

In all honesty, while I LOVE Primas I have a hard time with the larger ones, making “centers” for them. In all honesty the thing I hate most about this is the beaded button flower center. Oh well!

Share with me how you dress up your Prima centers! I need help!
