Blue & Green

Hello...

It's been a while since I got to create something and I love blue and green together so when I saw the challenge at 



I had to play along ... 

Whilst over at AAA Cards this week 

The challenge is to CASe this card by Jane Taylor


Here's my card


I used blue and green mists for my background and layered some flowers on to a navy blue die cut wreath


... A couple of die cut ferns and a silver thread bow complete my centre piece


The sentiment is by PTI stamped in ink by Gina K. designs 
I also added some glossy accents onto a few petals ... simply because this flower reminds me of a waterlily, and I couldn't resist adding a few sequins too.

I hope you're having a good start to the week - It's cool and wet here and it's been very windy too ... 

Thanks for looking in - Take care
