Fall 3-D Wheelbarrow

Today is another Craft Junkie Too Design Team day. I can't even begin to tell you how much I love being on Tracy's Design Team!! Her awesome assignments are just a small part of it.  The challenge for this week is:

Autumn, Fall or Halloween - Not a Card


I love this cute little wheelbarrow!! It measures a WHOPPING 11 3/4"! I inked the edges of the handles, the wheel and the wheelbarrow body too.

I also made a trio of 3-D pumpkins to add. :) The little leaves on the pumpkins are from A Child's Year - cut at 1 1/2" and inked with green and orange ink.

I don't have directions for it, but this is the body of the wheelbarrow.  This is not a 3-D project in the Walk in My Garden Cricut Cart... but I just HAD to make it into this cute 3-D display.

I grabbed this adorable leafy mini garland at Craft Warehouse... so cute! :)

I cut the wheel out of a dark gray color and inked the edges black for depth.  Each side of the wheelbarrow is a total of three thicknesses of cardstock, I also added strength to the front wheel by adding this strip of cardstock.

I also used Popsicle sticks to add strength to the structure. I really wanted this little wheelbarrow to be able to hold quite a lot of weight... I knew what my kids would want to display inside.

Here is a look at the empty wheelbarrow.

And of it loaded down after a trip to the mini pumpkin farm! :)

And this is what my kiddos loaded into the mini wheelbarrow... I just knew it would pay to reinforce it! :)

That's it, please head over to Tracy's blog and see what
