March is a time for Wearing O' the Green and these two Challenges do just that! Double Trouble is challenging us with a project featuring green and plaids/checks. Inspiration Station has a challenge photo full of beautiful greens. Check both of these challenges out by clicking the links I added later in this post.
First of all, Green is one of my favorite colors and I love a good plaid, too! So this challenge is right in my wheelhouse!
I have several inspirations going with this card. The two challenges I already mentioned and another by Dana Baker. Her inspiration was a card where she used Liquid Pearls to create a pretty background. I couldn't wait to get into my stash of Liquid Pearls and try this out!
The plaid background is a piece of Irresistible Cardstock with Sage Exclusive Inks brushed on it with a Blending Brush. The cardstock colors are Sage, Sapphire and White Daisy. Exclusive Inks colors are Sage and Sapphire. I also added Sage ink to the sentiment to bring in the green color and soften all the white cardstock. The stamp set the sentiment comes from is D2095 Irish Blessings and is on sale during this months Stamptacular Sale! White Cards and Envelopes Value Pack is a staple in my stash so I'm always ready to make a card.

DeleteOne of my DT member at Double Trouble used this Irresistible cardstock and I didn't know what it was, how did I miss that, love it... need to get that packet. And your butterfly is so pretty using the pearl color. Thanks for sharing this with us at Double Trouble and Inspiration Station.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Suzanne.
ReplyDeleteI really love that soft green and blue! And the picture that gives the right angle to see the embossing and the sheen on the butterfly - beautiful! Thanks for sharing this at Double Trouble :)
