Publication in Scrapbook Creations - Color Challenge

This month  Scrapbook Creations issue 101 
is a whopper and has an awesome brand new look 
available now at newsagents 

as a member of the color team our challenge was to use some or all of these colors 
'Potting Shed '
these delightful colors remind me of nature, and they fit in perfectly with my friend's old potting shed, which has a lovely romantic quality to it . I wanted to create the feel of dense foliage(green) herb gardens (chipboard grasses) and small enticing paths (chipboard hexagon shapes ) leading to intriging , secretive parts of the garden .
Our friends Ros and Tony Hurren 
live on a magnificent property in the Adelaide hills .
This darling old garden shed is nested among the glorious garden Ros lovingly tends to .  

a dense cluster of flowers adds to the harmony of nature .
my beautiful friend Eila Sandberg sent me these flowers last year as a surprise gift.
thanks so much my special friend .
 
thanks for looking at my work and if you have a chance go buy the magazine
 it is wonderful full of inspiring works of art 
bye for now.

    Couldn't say it better than the other ladies already have! Super congrats on your publication darling! wouldn't be surprised if they dedicated an entire magazine just for your creations! potting sheds do something for me too, gardens and verdure, Mother Nature, the smell of soil just love it. This is such a gorgeous page Heather, utterly divine as Helen W says! xoxoxox
