We might think we are nurturing our garden, but of course it’s our garden that is really nurturing us.<\/strong> – Jenny Uglow<\/em><\/p>\n

Option # 14 in the March This or That? Challenges<\/a> gives you the choice of creating a layout inspired by either the phrase Green Thumb<\/strong> or Feeling Blue<\/strong>. Last week, we talked about kit options for layouts about feeling blue<\/a>; now it’s time to dig into the metaphorical soil and look at kits to help you scrapbook your love of gardening and growing things!<\/p>\n

Whether you love to fill your rooms with houseplants or line your windowsills with succulents and cacti, have a small salsa garden or are trying your hand at homesteading, have a few pots of perennials on your porch or flower beds overflowing with color, we’ve got kits and templates in the Shoppe<\/a> you can use to chronicle their growth. Have a look and be sure to scroll to the bottom of this post where you’ll find quotes you can use on your next gardening-related scrapbook page.<\/p>\n
