A Coloring Challenge card

Happy St. Patrick’s Day Everyone!

I hope you all have your green on today.  Does my title count as my green?  Don’t forget to put something on so you don’t get pinched!

Today I am sharing my coloring for Day 14 of the coloring challenge.

I thought I would try a technique I had done earlier but the results were ok but not great.  In a previous coloring challenge I had used the reinking of an embossing folder.  The result was okay but it was a little pale I thought.  I thought I would give it a try again but use medium colors instead of pale colors.  I used a different embossing folder this time.  I am still not happy with the results but maybe it was the embossing folder.  Here is my coloring.

 

I thought for my card today, I would use one of the background I created on another coloring challenge day.  I had used some blues and greens to create a watercolor background.  I pulled out the background and added it to a card base.  I then cut out a thinlet word and added it to the card.  It still needed needed something so I cut out a butterfly and added it.  Then I stamped a word underneath and my card was done.  Here is my creation.

Thanks for visiting me today.  I have my retirement village ladies this morning.  We have missed the last 2 months due to snow.  No chance of that today.  Have a Terrific Tuesday!
