Green or Gold


 

Many thanks for visiting. I have chosen the theme  at The Alphabet Challenge today and would like to see you feature the colours green or gold.  I used a digital stamp from Power Poppy and paper from my stash, colouring the wreath with Promarkers.Joy die cut using a Sizzix die.  A Christmas card to add to a very small number made this year.

The weather has been glorious,lots of sunshine but not too hot,we've been down to the beach esplanade by 8.30 in the morning for a leisurely walk, a great way to start the day.

 Pop over to the Challenge Blog for some inspiration and see the fabulous makes there.

Your colouring on that gorgeous wreath looks amazing Meg, it really brings it to life. Could you send some of that glorious weather down South please, it's been do dreary and dismal here for a couple of weeks, beginning to think that summer is never coming :/

The green and gold combination works really well Meg. Not a lot of sun here - it keeps going overcast and chilly.

Rachelle Oltean said...

Hey Meg! So glad you were able to head out to the esplanade for a walk! It's so darn hot here that you don't want to leave the air-conditioning! I guess that makes it perfect card making weather! This Christmas Card is so beautiful! Great coloring on that wreath image and the rounded corners on the layering is spot on! Lovely work! Take care and enjoy the summer!
Hugs - Rachelle : )
