DYSU #62 - Going Green!

Morning all, today brings us a new challenge from DYSU. This week, we would like to see any Going Green projects - so either based around the colour green or using recycled materials.




I have based my card on the colour green, using a very cute stamp from Wild Rose Studios, called Party Fergus.




I have coloured him with Promarkers, and cut using oval nesties, then mounted onto a lacy oval Marianne Designs frame in blue textured card by Papermania.



The green spotty and argyle patterned paper is from Craftwork Cards, and the blue seam binding and green loop trim wrap is from The Ribbon Reel.


Supplies used:

Stamps: Party Fergus - Wild Rose Studio

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black; Versamagic Paris Dusk

Papers: Ice Cream Parlour - Craftwork Cards; Papermania Textured Coloured Card

Ribbon: Celery Loop Trim, Natural Button Twine, Union Blue Seam Binding - The Ribbon Reel;

Other: Spellbinders S4-112 Classic Ovals Small; Marianne Design Craftables Oval Die; Woodware Tag Punch; Sewing Machine; Button from Stash; Gems from stash
