As Kermit once sang

It's not easy being green

But it is easy to use it on a card.
Jozza chose one of my fave colours for our dare for Daring Cardmakers this week.

The dare is feeling green.
I want to see lots of green on your cards in any shade you like.

Usually I like to use it most with blue but this time I wanted a mostly monochrome look.

I used some of the papers from my Costco set (still loads of that to use up).
The base layer was inked.
Layer 2 was inked and I ran a pinking wheel around it and bent the edges up slightly.
Layer 3 went through a cuttlebug folder and was inked.
Layer 4 went through an embossing folder and was sanded and inked then adhered using brads
Layer 5 is a nestability scallop die cut
Layer 6 is a nestability rectangle put through an embossing folder and inked.

The ferns are grungeboard - inked with pine needles and peeled paint (same colours used everywhere). One is layered on top of the other.

The printed sentiment uses the CK free Ali Edwards handwriting font. Inked and matted.

to be honest it probably took less time to make than it did to describe it!

I've been to the orthodontist with little C today. She had her train tracks glued on (always makes me laugh when the orthodontist gets out his heat gun to set the metal bits on the teeth) ready for the rest next week. Now it is time to hit the sermon. Although I think I have found the title for my MA essay on the Spirituality of Alcoholics Anonymous (which is actually very interesting I'll have you know)
