Secret Garden
Seriously struggling for time at the moment. I invigilate in exams at my local school so for the last 5 weeks I've been watching students writing, yawning, sleeping etc etc....only 15 more to go then done for the summer. This morning I managed to finish my postcard for The Craft Barn's Alpha Dictionary Challenge where the letter is K.
There are not many K words and I could have done kite, key or keyhole but in the end I've chosen to do KEYSTONE as I knew I had this stone gateway stamp from Paperartsy. I've gone for a secret walled garden blending sepia ink through a brick stencil and adding some greenery with Crafty Individuals stamps. The 'ironwork gate' is a Memory Box die.
Hope you like and thanks for popping by. Any comments you leave are gratefully appreciated.

Love your page - makes me what to go into that secret garden for a look around!
ReplyDeleteGreat choice of words Elaine - I really, really love your brick wall and the stone gateway is brilliant!
ReplyDeleteHope the next 15 go well! Hugs, Anne xx
Love your choice of word. The view through the gate looks very tempting.
ReplyDeleteVery inventive the way you used your crafting supplies to create the walled garden. Nice choice of word too.
ReplyDeleteThat was a very unique word and nicely illustrated, too. It's sad that young people are either so bored or so overtaxed they aren't sleeping. I hope your situation and that of the students improves over the summer. Loved this entry, though, even if you had little time to create it.
ReplyDeleteAn inspired choice of word and a very clever way to use the arch. xx
ReplyDeleteAn unusual word to use and you have illustrated it really well. Love the idea and the wall and gateway have worked beautifully.
ReplyDeleteA great choice of word and beautifully depicted.
