Try It Out Tuesday #10

Today's challenge was in honor of St. Patrick's Day. We were to use shades of green with just one neutral color.
Be sure to check out Susana's store blog, Follow Your Heart, to see all the other DT members creations! We'd love to have you play along too!! Create a card/project and then leave a comment on the store blog with a link to your creation. If you upload to SCS or PCP, use the keyword TIOT10.
As I mentioned in the post below this one, color challenges are not my strong point! And then two of them in one day, oye!! But I gave it my best shot. Now if it had been pink I would've been good, but green? It truly was a challenge!! And after I got my card done I noticed I didn't follow the directions very well as I don't have "shades of green". Sigh, I tried! LOL!
Here's what I came up with~~

Supplies:
card size: 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
stamps: Retro Robin, SU Polka Dot Punches -inside
paper: Georgia Pacific, Wild Asparagus Stack
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Palette Landscape
others: copics, granny smith bella baubles, Bazzill bitty blossoms,

Don't forget that Susana has awesome copic bundles now too! and great tutorials!!

Great card! I love how you "dressed" her. That polka-dot and black outfit is awesome. I have trouble grasping anyone struggling with green!!? lol And I think that polka-dot punches stamp is wonderful stamped on the inside. I haven't found much use for it yet, but that looks good.
