Go Green



Hello and Happy St. Patrick's Day!!
I hope you've all got your green on...otherwise beware of the pinchers!!

Today I have a fun card for you that celebrates all things green! And it comes care of this week's Color Challenge #9 over at By LORi Designs!

The Challenge is to use 3 shades of green + white and begins today, ending Wednesday, March 23. For my card I've used SU! colors: Certainly Celery, Wild Wasabi and Garden Green. And it just so happens that I had some patterned paper in my stash in those very colors as well!
And it wouldn't be a BLD party without a cutie pie Puddle Jumper! This is lovely Miss Tabitha. I decided to have a little fun with her (btw, under no circumstances, do these adorable stamps need any altering, they are all perfect just the way there were designed) by giving her shorter pig tails for this card. It was cold in Seattle today too, so I gave her some little sleeves on her shirt as well.
So, Green + Tabitha + a few fun embellishments = a fun St. Paddy's Day card and a new BLD Challenge for the week! Yay!

Thanks so much for stopping by to take a look at my card and I hope that you'll join in on the fun over at By LORi Designs this week! Be sure and check out all of the incredible Green Inspired cards that the challenge team created for today!

Embellishments: Prima Flower, SU! Go Green stamp, SU! Pinch Proof stamp, SU! Wild Wasabi Ribbon, Misc Jewel
