brave 62

Hi there! It's time for an all new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week's theme is called "Just a hint of clover". Pull out your green colored supplies, create a fabulous project and share it with us! 

I was inspired by the color green to create a greeting card using various shades of green Distress Stain Sprays:

Admittedly, the color green is not one of my "go to" colors so I was brave and reached for the following Distress Stain Sprays: bundled sage, mowed lawn, evergreen bough and pine needles to create an inky background.

For the focal point, I embellished with a crackled die cut butterfly which was colorized using bundled sage:

For the sentiment, a small talk sticker was used:

I created a Harlequin textured background:

I completed the card with a custom colored Crinkle Ribbon bow and a fun Typed Token:

Thanks so much for visiting! I hope you enjoyed my project and I hope you join along with theSimon Says Stamp Monday Stamp Challenge! Please be sure to visit the Simon Says Stamp Monday Stamp Challenge blog to see all the DT's fabulous inspiration!

Be Sweet ;)
