I made these garden markers! Colored with markers. Cut out and glued to tongue depressers. (I asked the nurse at my doctor's office for them. She handed me a great handful!

Here is a better look at the garden markers.

I added a small banner to the bottom of the sentiment. It was done by stamping the top of the seed packet twice. I cut it out and glued down.

Good Luck on the hop!

It's all in the strokes. BRUSH STROKES!


Welcome to another Tutorial Time challenge!

One lucky participant will win this cute stamp set!

Here is my sample. I love Hum Along. It is my favorite new stamp set. It looks good with All Postal. The images are colored with various markers from various companies. I used a White Out pen for the white on the flower. The stripes were brushed on with various colors and types of inks. There is a Tutorial for this challenge on MFPSpeedyTV.
