Journaling: What's in Your Garden?


Our new challenge over at Cut It Up is 'What's in Your Garden?' 

Check out the video below to see how I made the image from Cricut Design Space into the die cut used in this layout.


Now what is really in my garden...wild flowers!  My grandgirl and I plant a butterfly garden every year in an old horse trough!   Here's a pic of our little garden.  


I also have one lone tomato plant that blew onto my arena fence line.  I decided to water it and now I have cherry tomatoes.  What a fun gift from the wind!  You might be asking, "Does she have that staked with bailing twine?"  Yes, yes I do!  I don't garden, so I improvised with what I have!  haha


 Come share your projects with us at Cut It Up.  Remember to include a die cut for this challenge!

    Love your card, especially the fence die, like the design too!

    My manager gifted her team members a tomato plants as part of a group assignment and I took mine to a neighbor to add to their garden! I didn't think the critters, deer and other friends that frequent my yard would let it survive!

      I didn't realize it until you shared it, but this is also perfect for Aimeslee’s theme at AJJ.

    Thanks for adding this at AJJ, such a pretty page and very summer garden-ish! I had to chuckle at the bailing twine - hey, doesn't it work just fine? Then perfect choice! LOL Congrats on your pretty butterfly garden and your tomatoes, xoxo

    Hi Katrina
    Pretty journal page.
    This year, I have 16 tomato plants, grown from seed. Just wish we had more Sun to ripen them. :-)
    Thanks for joining in with MAWTT again.
    Best wishes
    Ang
