Well, two posts yesterday and one this morning. You know I've been making good use of my play time this weekend. :-D This next card I did using an image from Beccy's Place (theme: Anything Goes with Beccy's image.) I discovered Beccy's Place images a couple of years ago and I just love them. These roses seemed perfect for a birthday, and a friend of mine has her birthday on Mother's Day this year so this will probably end up in her mailbox. :-D

Back to my craft room now. If you're in the USA, but not in Arizona, did you remember to move your clocks forward into Daylight Savings Time? If not, better do it before you have to go to work or be at an appointment. You'll be late if you don't. BTW, can anyone tell me why we "save daylight" in the spring and summer when days are longer and we have more daylight anyway? The farmer's cows still wake up with the sun, not the clock. :-D Happy Stamping. NanaConnie
I started with the sketch at Speedy TV (twist: add bling), turned sideways.
The roses are colored with ProMarkers and die cut with another of my frame dies from Spellbinders. The polka dot dp is from SU and the background has been lightly embossed with my "Linen" folder. Can you believe there are no fewer than 6 shades of green on this card between the papers, the CS, and the coloring? There are just so many challenges this week wanting us to do something with green. I tried to satisfy them all. :-D
I added the pearl swirls and the metal brads for a bit of bling but the card is still flat enough to fit into a regular envelope for mailing.
The following challenges all have themes related to "green":
