Crafty Cardmakers Challenge - 183# Go Green!!

Hello everybody and welcome!  So pleased you dropped in for a visit.

It is time for another Challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers and this time Judy is our host and the Challenge is to Go Green!!
We want to see lots of lovely lush green on your creations in honour of St. Patrick's Day which is on the 17th of March.  As usual, anything you care to make is fine as long as it fits the Theme.

 So, Go Green and enter the Challenge!!!  We would love to see what you create!!!

This is my DT contribution.

The papers are from Kaisercraft and the flowers are from Megs Garden.  The larger blooms were coloured with watered down paints.

Scraped some texture paste through a stencil for extra interest and couldn't resist  adding some prills.  (One of my current fave things)  

Also popped on some green glass glitter (available from Megs Garden) for a bit of sparkle (although that is a bit hard to see in the photos)..

 .. and printed the greeting from my computer, then punched it out with a circle punch and covered it with an epoxy sticker.
The ribbon was coloured with some Liquitex ink.  I actually had coloured it with some watered down acrylic paint but it was way too dark.  Before it dried I actually washed it out and then recoloured it with the ink.  You can still see some remnants of the paint in places but, I think, the different shades are quite interesting.

Placed some guaze under the cluster to add more texture and soften the look.

Simple decoration on the inside.  The right side is a pocket into which I can insert a tag with a personal message.

And there you go .. my DT contribution to the 'Go Green' Challenge.

Hope you like it and feel inspired to join in with the Challenge .. we would love to see your 'green' creations.
