OCC...How green is your Spring

Happy Saturday Peeps!!

It is time for another new challenge over at Our Creative Corner.

This week our hostess is the fabulous Marcy Kimiski. Here is her challenge for us:

How Green is Your Spring" Inspiration Photo. 

I LOVE this montage - it's chock full of inspiration. 

 Show us Spring in its full splendor, using GREEN as your main color! 

Green is not a favorite color of mine, but heck I'll give it a whirl!! :)

I was inspired by the flowers and decided to pull out the retired Stampin Up set called "Because I Care" stamp set.

I stamped the hydrangea with black stazon twice onto some confetti cream card stock and colored up the flower with lucky limeade and baja blue ink using my aqua painter. I cut out just the head of the flower and added it over the first one with a few dimensionals. 

I used the French foliage stamp set on the BG and sponged it with crumb cake and early espresso ink.

I used some pear pizzazz seam binding ribbon along with some ruffled baja ribbon across the bottom. I punched a couple of sections of baja card stock with the pinking hearts border punch and added them to the main image piece. The sentiment comes from the retired "Something to Celebrate" stamp set. I added a few basic pearls at the top and bottom, I sponged them a bit with some early espresso ink. 

Be sure to check the Our Creative Corner Blog

I hope you can find some time to play along and if you do, don't forget to link it up over on the Our Creative Corner Blog so we can all see it!
