FQCB BONUS project inspired by Theme #5 herbs or foliage AND clay pot or vase

Howdy! Yee-haw! This is a bonus project inspired by FarmQuest Challenge Blog's Theme #5.

Theme #5 requires:

*use herbs or foliage (leafy stem)

AND

*clay pot or vase

Competition ends at 12:30am CT/Chicago time on June 13, 2022. 


It's a personal creative struggle--a real challenge--to keep it clean and simple. 

But here's my first attempt at CAS style in about 5 months:


With using the computer printer scanner, it is hard to distinguish between the white cardstock used to block the light and the white cardstock used for the base. 

A little bit of light green stenciling for the leafy-looking rays; leafy washi tape, a little stamp, 2 small rub-on transfers for the foliage and pot; and one lone green gem. That's it. 

Use this link to take you to (my challenge blog) FarmQuest's original posting for Theme #5 and see the fuller inspiration card I made =
