How Does Your Garden Grow?

I had been slowly painting a double icon today before I saw the fabulous one on the Paperartsy blog as part of the final #3up tweet challenge.

I've finished it now... and wish to enter it into the Country View Crafts challenge "how does your garden grow"

stamps are all by Jo Firth-Young for Paperartsy. Paints are Paperartsy Frescos

I used grey to stamp the criss cross randomly over the sky in the background

I can't get a decent photo tonight though, so may try again tomorrow!

    These stamps look lovely on the icon and the colours are just right. Lots of luck with this, Helen.

    This is another yummy one. All summery and colourful. Love that stamping n the sky - looks almost crackly from this end.
