TioT - Go green

Over at Try it on Tuesday we have a new challenge for you - Go green. There are so many possibilities with this theme. I have used green in different ways on my card:

-  First, as the theme. Spring is approaching, nature will bloom and people with green fingers (not mine) will do their planting business outdoors.
- Second, as color. I used plant stamps and a leaf wreath stamp from Altenew and those required the use greens.
- Third, as recycling as I used bookpages from an old book to stamp all the greeneries on. 

I did lots of fussy cutting as the pots and animal life were stamped on scrap pieces of papers.

Please head over to the challenge blog to see the my TioT teamies have made and to get inspired. 

This project is also for:

Your card is so wonderful and I love how you designed it. And your card would also fit perfectly with the current challenge at DotMCC. Our theme: Plant a flower day.
