AAA - Plant a garden - Funky fossil

Hello dear friends,

Hope you all are doing fine and are staying in and practicing social distancing. This new challenge at AAA cards has come at the right time. Even though I had plans for these hard times, my day gets over sooner than it used to earlier. Everyone home, endless chores, a kid to keep entertained, I have to use those few free minutes in hand for making cards.

Our new game is made in minutes with optional twist of use a stencil. 

We are sponsored by Funky Fossil for this challenge and they are giving away £15.00 store credit to our winner.

I must tell you that even though I made this card in minutes , I had been planning it in my head all the time I was cooking :D I have seen cards with that torn edge look and I have been waiting to try it and I was so glad I could use it for this card. I didn't even use a masking paper. I used a copy paper I had on my desk, tore it into two and kept on my cardstock and put a stencil over it for sponging with two colors of green ink.

I have used Forest foliage stencil by Funky Fossil that was a gift by Sandie and the sentiment is from one of my dearest stamp set by Funk Fossil Plant a garden. I love to have a little garden. And with the uncertainties around this sentiment is very motivating! Some dew drops and I am very happy :)

How much time do you think it took? And I didn't hurry! I had intended it to be a One layer card. But I finished with sponging and stamping at 1min 37 secs. It was too less! So I thought let me trim the panel and foam mount it on a white card base and then it took a total of 3min 15 secs. But this design is perfect for mass producing in my opinion. 

My spring blooms are blossoming and here are few pictures from my garden with the Nature's work force all working and my son getting all the time to enjoy and discover new creatures.
