Double D Challenge - Going Green (anything green)

Hello my crafty friends! Here at Double D Challenge, we have some incentive for you in the way os this inspiration board that Diane has created.  She has called it Going Green and you can do anything Green.   

This is the prize for a random winner. You need to enter to have that chance, so got going on this one. 

My card

I have decided that this year, I will try to use what I have in my stash. Therefore, I looked at the stencil from Pink Fresh and started there. It has a die to match, and I used that too for my background. Of course it is green. Next I used the wonderful butterfly stamp and stencil from Gina K Designs. Stencils make it easy to color up an image and soon I have three butterflies done for my card. 

I think you can see where I got my inspiration. 

For this card, I used Gina K designs Fluttering Fall Stamp and stencil set

The inks are Grass Green, Fresh Asparagus, Warm Cocoa

Pink Fresh Overlapping geo leaf stencil and die

Champagne gems Pink Fresh

Looking forward to seeing your entry in this challenge. Check out the blog here. 

I am also entering my card in the Cut Above Challenge for March
