Sharing an 'Oldie' on Friday

Hi Crafters,
It's Friday once again and I am joining in with Erika of Snappy Crafts with her fun 'sharing an old crafty project'.
 
 
This is a real 'oldie', one that I made for a customer who wanted specific requirements on the card for her sister. I managed to find a picture of a garden scene and used my Joanna Sheen wheel barrow and flower pots dies. The image was printed several times and elements were cut out and layered for dimension. I then punched out my flowers and shaped them, tucking them in behind the raised wheel barrow and pots.
If you would like to join in with Erika's fun theme just post your oldie on your blog, give Erika a visit and comment on her post and she will come and visit you.
 
Thanks for dropping by today,
See you soon,
 
Lorraine
