Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #229

Hi everyone and welcome to my little blog.  Hope you are having a fabulous day.

It's time for a new Challenge at Crafty Cardmakers.    Marlene is our lovely host and the Theme is 'Make It Green".

As always, you don't have to make a card.  You can create whatever you like as long as your piece is predominantly green.

For my DT contribution, I have created a masculine card.
This was created in bit of a hurry.  Had a lot of stuff on my mind in the last few days and totally forgot that this Challenge was due.  Didn't think I could do it but, luckily, I managed.
Grabbed some Kaisercraft papers (from their Base Coat Collection), a few diecuts and some paper circles I had punched out a few days before and this is the result.
The sentiment was generated on my computer and, although it looks a bit fuzzy here, it does look fine IRL.
The chippie is from 2 Crafty Chipboard and I heat embossed it with  metallic green and black powders.

So glad I got it Done!!

Check out the full details of the Challenge and take a peek at the awesome creations by my Teamies.  I'm sure you will be inspired!!

  5. Uh oh! I really dislike those times when I miscalculate when a challenge is due! But you pulled it off with great flair. I especially like the way you combined the shades of green and the chipboard embossing is the star of the show IMHO. Well done Margy and thanks for the inspiration.
