Flower seed pockets with Garden Life papers

Hello and happy Saturday. Do you have a family member or friend that loves gardening?
Today I'm sharing a fun little project that could be used as a gift to that person.
I made these three seed pockets.




The pockets are criss cross cards. 
I used the Garden Life paper collection to make the pockets and inserts.
This collection is perfect for this occasion.




I also made 3 inserts, you can use these to write a little message on. 
They have a little tab on the top.
There's still room left for the seed packets.




I embellished the front of the pockets with die cuts and 
cut outs from the patterned papers.





Thanks for visiting the Blue Fern Studios blog.

Hugs, Henriƫtte.

Courtship Lane inspiration by Pascale


Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Blue fern Studios with 3 new projects using the Courtship Mane collection. .

In the first one I chose a photo of my daughter when she was almost 3 years old, no need to say it was some time ago.







And here is the beautiful sketch I follow to make the layout.

You still have time to upload your project until the 31st March here.

I started to add a layer of clear gesso to the background to protect it. While it was drying, I cut several strips in the Est Plaza paper. Then I glued them to the background and added a thin layer of white gesso. When dry, I stamped randomly with an archival black ink with the Garden Frolic design.


I added also a design with the Essentiel Textures and the Snow embossing Powder. 


I primed the  French Word with white gesso and the Turkish Panel with clear gesso. Then I colored the chipboards with different colors of Twinkling H2Os. 


I used the same colors on the background and the flowers in order to have a monochromatic layout. I finished the page with some glitters.

-------------------------------------------------

For the last layout I chose to work with the green paper from the collection. It was the perfect match for this photo of the Saint Martin Wash House I've bought during a trip to Rennes (France)


I started to apply a layer of clear gesso. Then I added a design with a light modeling paste and a stencil. While the paste was still wet I sprinkled several colors of embossing powders and heat set them. 


I cover the Organic coins with a layer of clear crackle paste and let to dry. When the paste was completly dry, I colored it with a mica powder.


I colored the die-cut leaves with different shades of green and browns that match the photo and sprinkled them with different embossing powders and heat set them.


I used a Primary Element to color the Courtship Roses.


I  finished with splatters of black and white gesso and some random stamping with the Postal Textures stamp.
