Garden mid month WLSC

 Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for We Love Stamping 
the theme this month being "Anything stamped/option Stamped, In the Garden "

 
The garden theme is so wonderful, with lots of subjects  and images to choose from, but I have chosen flowers this time. 

I decided that, as I always add pot hyacinths to the garden, I would use this lovely stamp, which I had a long time ago, and was unused. I added matching paper from a pad, for the "lawn & border" and brown card for the "earth". Laying them side by side. 
 
The hyacinths were stamped using a mask on the bottom, to set them into the "soil", they were coloured with DI's. I stamped 2 sentiments and die cut the matching label die. I glued them together and "planted" them in the border. Adding the die cut sentiment and stamped birthday onto matching card.

Beautiful hyacinths and a beautiful spring/summer card. I think those flowers are so pretty and yet I've never been able to grow one. Very pretty birthday card!

Faith, how sweet to include the "just for you" signs with your hyacinths! They don't grow where I live, so I can imagine the fragrance from your sweet trio here. Beautiful card!

This is a gorgeous use of that hyacinth stamp Faith and how nice to be planting up a garden in the warm and dry craftroom! I love these flowers and always have pots of them indoors in the early spring for the scent. Vicky x
