See What Inspiration Photo We Are Using This Week!
Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration challenge is an adorable red wagon with some pretty plants & flowers:
I love flower gardens. I have 7 of them on our property. It’s a lot of work but I love working in and the smell of dirt. I used to grow my own flowers by starting them from seed, but now that I have Ozzie the cat, I can no longer do that. Ozzie is only a little over a year old and he’s into everything!
I created this neat center fold card and I love the way the wagon fits on the front of the flap that opens. I also loved using the sentiment on the side like I did:
You can see how the card opens and how I decorated the inside:
