Altered Mother's Day Gift Challenge 12

Hi there hope everyones had time for some craft!!!

In-between Gardening Fishing and Drs Appointments sometimes I struggle to make the time ...

But this last week Ive found a project to do which combined gardening and craft!!

My project below is my DT Entry for Challenge 12 over at 

Creative Artiste Mixed Media Challenge Blog

It's an 'Anything Goes Theme' with a twist being either chipboard, stencils or http://www.papertoleaustralia.com/toppers-die-cut-push-out 

So head over to their Blog and check out the Challenge rules and prize on offer -

(AU $30-$35 value of new release product!!)

For my DT Project I chose to use chipboard - A seagull the swallow and a scroll...

I Hope you enjoy my creation and leave a comment please!!!

I re purposed a Fruit bowl we had that was too big for our kitchen table - it was just a dust collector on top of the fridge .
Of course its shape screamed BOAT so then my creation began....

First a Flag ...

Hand drawn flag on MDF ...two screws to attach to pole and a coat of primer

I mixed different paints on a roller to create the background then the fun began...

Netting for effect and ropes for stability

Lined with paperbark

Then added soil, plants, white pebbles and shells...

A coat of varnish to protect the flag ...

I will be entering this project into these Challenges...
