Christmas Greenhouse

 

One of my Christmas cards this year was this festive greenhouse, made with several

older Greetery sets. 

Fortunate to have been on the start of The Greetery's releases, these early sets,

especially holiday themed, are still some of my favorites.

Built on a striped paper my little greenhouse is first stamped before adding

the die cuts. The actual greenhouse frame is 3 die cuts thick, and the Christmas

trees are popped up with foam. 

Do you have plant lovers on your Christmas list? This one goes to one of dear

friends who rescues dying plants from nurseries and gives  them a second life...

true story!

Merry Christmas!

Good Wednesday Morning! Playing along today with the Color Hues Challenge,

where we are challenged with Green and Gold.

I used Altenew's Build a Flower Honeysuckle, and stamped with various greens from

Distress Oxide Inks.

the first layer is gold embossed, then multi-stamped.

Have to say, green was a bit challenging for some reason.

If you'd like to play with Gold and Green, the blog is below.

Happy Hump Day!

An Irish Blessing

Hi and welcome to my blog where I'm featuring an inspiration card for the newest

Card Concept Challenge: Irish Coffee.

I know... I could have done a coffee themed card, But I love this Celtic Frame from 

PTI, and don't get to use it enough. So my card is framed and green, and, just plain

Irish. Love the circular blessing (also PTI), and the embossed circular imprint from

Poppystamps. 

It's time for all things green at the Card Concept.

Inspired to play along?

Card Concept #5 Color Challenge

This week's Card Concept challenge is brought to us by the fabulously talented Lesley Croghan.

We are nearing St. Patty's day, so I think she was inspired by the glorious color green.

Here's our luscious photo inspiration:

Used a new Memory Box die, Paper Cut Tulips Circle.

Never thought of doing it in greens, but rather like the surprise outcome.

2 other dies complete construction of the tulips and center of die cut.

Paper Cut Tulips and Adorable Posies.

I created a bg by sponging New Leaf over 3 white strips (PTI),

like the cake pop sticks in the photo.
