City Crafter Challenge - Shades of Green

How's your 4th? We're having a downpour here! Wonder if there will be fireworks?


CHERYLJUNEGIRL left a comment on my blog, which led me to her blog and another challenge blog: City Crafter. The challenge is Shades of Green. It just so happened that I had just cut out this darling little girl who just so happened to be dressed in green. Hmmm...an opportunity to use shades of green! This little girl with her birthday cake is so sweet.
I cut out a doily card using the Wild Card cartridge from Cricut. The background papers are Basic Grey Nook and Pantry. And barely seen is a doily aged with Ranger Ink Peeled Paint, a pretty green shade. The edges of the card and background papers are also highlighted with Peeled Paint.
I was out of green crinkle ribbon, so I made some yesterday. The wish sentiment is from The Cutting Cafe's Birthday Fun set. Are you off tomorrow? I'm looking forward to an extra day.
