Hubby built the raised cedar veg bed with trellis. Planted 1 Cucumber plant bought at Home Depot.
Used Freshly Picked Cricut cartridge for the Cucumber die cuts. Tried to cut the one layer but too thin & it kept tearing so I made 2 without the layer out of 2 different shades of green.
Used Tim Holtz paper distresser on the edges of the Cucumber die cuts to give it a more realistic bumpy Cucumber look.
Our Cucumber plant has become a
Jack-in-the-Beanstalk.
