Shades of Green

Yay... Thursday. My favorite day of the week. :) Today, I have a springy, girly card for you. This week is my team turn at Paper Play challenges. Our theme this week is "Shades of green / good luck" and we are sponsored by Whiff of Joy.

Since, I don't really celebrate St. Patrick's day and being my efficient self, I like making cards that I can actually give or send to others, I decided to just do the green colors part. I use shades of green with a little jolt of pink, orange, and aqua. :) Sketch is from Jen's March SYFTT.



Challenges:
Creative Card Crew - no flowers

I think I came down with a fever. Did you see how many layers this card have? The whole time working on it, I kept thinking wow, seriously all these layers? LOL, I don't know why, but I feel like I am not being green or enviromentally friendly when I create card with too many layers. Then I reason with myself that not using up my scraps is even worse and it's not being green either.

What can I say, I am environment concious. I recycle a lot and at the office, I am the recycle officer. I basically teach and encourage my co-workers to recycle. :)

Well, I hope you will play along with this challange and you can check out more inspirations from the DT gals on Paper Play blog. Looking forward to your  creations! Thanks for stopping by!
