Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration challenge is a flower filled wagon!

GARDEN MEADOW

Well, I don’t have any wagon stamps (but I do like the Online Exclusive one!), so I decided a wheelbarrow would be close enough! I like it colored red!

Stampin’ Details:

The base is5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Poppy Parade cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Crumb Cake cardstock was added on top.
The 1-1/4 x 5-1/4 strip of Meandering Meadow Designer Paper was added along the left side, then the arch cut from the reverse side and added to the front.
The wheelbarrow was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White and colored with Poppy Parade, Real Red, Flirty Flamingo, Bubble Bath, Granny Apple Green and Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends. It was cut with the Garden Meadow Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Thinking of you was stamped with Poppy Parade Ink and hand-cut around the letters, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Some Linen Thread was folded in half and tied in a bow, then added to the wheelbarrow.
Two of the Brass Butterflies were added in the background.
