Two Peas Gardeners' Digest

Hi there and welcome to my first Gardeners' Digest post. Join me on the 22nd of every month for an update from the Garden Girls, the design team at Two Peas in a Bucket. We'll be hosting a blog hop, a give away here and there + sharing some sneak peeks.
  
SOMETHING NEW...
 First up, a peek at an upcoming Gallery project that I just finished up...
Every time I've seen this circular Silhouette pattern used, I've loved it. It's intricate, bold and interesting all at the same time. I filled it with papers from Crate's Paper Heart Collection.

SOMETHING INSPIRING...
I love this page by fellow Garden Girl, Jill Sprott. The cluster of envelopes chock full of journaling, the tucked in title and the generally artsy, layered feel of the page inspire me. You can see more of Jill's amazing work here + the girl  is witty, writes beautifully and tells an interesting story. Love that.

FIVE PRODUCTS I'M USING RIGHT NOW.... All of these products match perfectly. I love when that happens!

AND THE GIVEAWAY...
If you've made it this far, ha! - leave a comment and you'll be entered to win a $10 gift certificate to Two Peas in a Bucket.com. I'll announce a winner on 1/28/11. Good luck!

AND NOW....
Please hop on over to  Shannon Tidwell's blog for another edition of the Gardener's Digest.
