Shades of Green

We had wonderful weather over the weekend and today has been nice so far but we another thunderstorm could occur. From the looks of the sky it is raining now to the south of us. The A/C has been off for about 5 days and its lovely sleeping with the windows open.

This is a holiday Monday in Canada called Civic Day in most of the country but some provinces have special names for it. Who cares what its called – it’s a holiday!....not that holiday Mondays mean much to us retired people but its nice for the workers to enjoy another long weekend in the summer.

Today’s card is one I made using the negative of the oval die cut piece as a stencil.

 

Once the oval was inked to my satisfaction I stamped the Stampin’ Up flower silhouette stamp using the same ink but full strength. I added the green ribbon and hand tied bow in a similar but slightly different colour of green. Then it was mounted on a darker green piece of cardstock and then onto to a light green card base. The sentiment is a peel-off.

That’s all for a still sunny for now Monday, August 7, 2017.

Cheers

Violet
