IN THE GARDEN

 Hello everyone,

I was thinking of something the other day and decided to go for it....a giant gate fold garden card


This was after I made that giant nautical card
and just wanted to do it again..
So, fold is done..8 inches high, 14 inches across.


papers..


such a beautiful pattern and colours


There she is all covered..front


and back..


now the fence


i didn't want to use the railing die for the fence, I wanted it to be a little bit
deeper so made my own..


Branches was a after thought..cut in brown then green then leaves
 were nipped off and glued onto the brown..



Daisies were a definite


and an idea for the centers, but no, looked silly and didn't work..


so die cutting began with these centers.



Yep, much better




another idea for the hearts but they needed severe painting or inking.



die cut loads of leaves from Altenew


glued the layers


nothing straight with my eye sight !!!1


but they passed




The hearts became the nails on the fence..
Then on went details and things...


metal handles with a tiny piece of Camillia branch holding it together..


Wide open..


cute little bird..


tiny white flower glued inp lace with Nuvo crystal drops for the centers..


and standing up..

So there you go..a giant tri fold garden card..fun.

Thank you so much for stopping by, see you soon..
