Although Kermit the Frog may have thought that it is not easy being green, I found it quite easy to be green with this week's Dynamic Duos challenge. The biggest challenge for me was sorting through my Stampin' up cardstock and trying to figure which green sheets were Always Artichoke and Certainly Celery. After a complete reorganization of my cardstock I was able to get under way.
I was thrilled to find I had a Designer Series Paper Pattern Pack with Certainly Celery (although I later figured out that the color was actually Pear Pizazz...oh well!) and combined that with the Always Artichoke cardstock. I hope my card captured a cool greenhouse feeling.
One side of the designer paper has sweet little pin dots and the other side has a nice brocade pattern, which I used under the sentiment. I thought the flowers with the green buttons would help complete the garden feel.
And I wanted to stitch around the outside of the patterned paper, but I had already secured the paper to the card, sooooo.....I drew the stitches on the paper with a white gel pen!
I like how the card turned out and it won't last long in my card box before I sent out to a friend!
