It Ain't Easy Bein' Green!!


So green is NOT one of my favourite colours. I find some true greens very hard to work with.....like Glorious Green....it ain't so glorious to me!!! So today's challenge over at All That Scraps was a doozie for moi....the pink girl!!

This week's challenge is GREEN! Now, you could go with St. Patrick's Day if you are Irish or just need an excuse to celebrate that holiday with some green beverages! OR you can just make sure to use lots of green on your design...I went that route...and it was still hard!

I pulled out that adorable dinosaur from the Eric and Chrissy Go Prehistoric set and used some We R Memorykeepers dp. The card base is Kraft and the green I used is Kiwi Kiss....a little less barfy of a green. I coloured Dino in with my Copic markers and put some sparkles on his spots with my Sakura Stardust gel pen. Then I cut him out and popped him up on dimensionals. I stamped some bones and the sentiment on the green, used my photo corner punch and added some orange grosgrain ribbon with a bow.




I figure I'll send this one to my little 5 year old nephew. He'll love it!! Head over to the ATS Blog later on this morning and you'll find more green samples for inspiration....and I'm sure they'll be GLORIOUS!! hehe!

Kay, I've got lots of stampin' to do today! Fun, fun!! Have a super inky day!!
