Guest Designer, Patty Safrit, and Gift from the Garden

Patty Safrit

I received this beautiful card from Patty Safrit for my birthday, and I can't help but share it.  Patty spent lots of time cutting out each glove, boot, trowel, and almost 50 little leaves.  A labor of love, for sure.

I didn't have this set when I received Patty's card, but I will by the end of this week when my cute UPS man in the Big Brown Truck pulls up in my driveway.

There are so many things you can do with this set, and it's not just for gardeners, and I know that because I do not have a green thumb and I bought it anyway.

Recipe:

• The base is an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 piece of Dapper Demin scored at 4 1/4.
• The next set of Whisper White layers are:
• The piece for the boots is 1 5/8 x 2 5/8.  The boots were stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink and cut out with paper snips.
• The piece for the flower pot and flowers is 1 5/8 x 1 3/4.  The pot was stamped with Cajun Craze, and the leaves were hand-cut with Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive card stock.
• The piece with the gloves is 1 5/8 x 2.  The gloves were stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink, and cut out with paper snips.
• The piece with the trowel is 1 x 2.  The trowel was colored with Smoky Slate and Dapper Denim markers.
• The Watering Can piece is 1 1/2 x 2 1/2.  It was stamped on Whisper White with Mint Macaron ink and cut out with paper snips.
• The piece with the words is 1 1/2 x 2 7/8, and the words were stamped with Archival Black ink.
• All the pieces are adhered with snail, except for the piece with the words, and it was adhered with Dimensionals.
• Each piece was sponged with Dapper Denim Classic Ink.
• Remember to decorate your envelope, can't leave the house naked, right?
