Three Shades of Green

It's back to a colour week at Less is More and, this week, it's 'three shades of green'.  Green and I don't have the best relationship; I'm more a warm colours lass.  But then they do call them challenges for a reason.  My mind instantly went to leaves and to French Foliage more specifically.

Once I'd thought of this, the card didn't take too long to come together:


Supplies
Stamps: French Foliage, Faith in Nature (the sentiment)
Ink: Certainly Celery, Old Olive, Always Artichoke, Crumb Cake for the splodges
Card:  Confetti Cream

As always, if you are interested in this or any other SU supplies, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me either by email or by phone on 07977 141605.  Remember that you can choose a free set of designer paper during April if your order comes to £45 or more.  Click on the link in my sidebar if you want to know more.

Have a lovely Easter Sunday!
