I used the Silhouette cut file to cut out my Seasonal Label, stamped in Memento Bamboo Leaves and Rhubarb Stalk. Fun two step for adding the sentiment of choice and more color! The label is layered onto a Lacey Circle die cut and white doily. I added some Pure Luxury Good as Gold punched flourishes to tie in the gold embossed trees from Joyful Holiday. I love this swirly tree as a background! Dress it up with adhesive pearls to mimic the blingy stamped label.
This "Farm Fresh" image from Primitive Blessings
is a perfect thank you for our neighbors who have a few chickens in
their "urban garden" and brings us eggs sometimes. I had to use an Oval Nestabilities (to represent an egg of course!) and matted it on a Labels 10.
Cardstock is Pure Luxury White and Tomato Soup. DP is Gina K Casual Friday and Sun Kissed Autumn. I pinched slits in the end of the Label die cut and added a bit of twill from a past StampTV kit and some button brads to embellish.
