going green

i love making these buttons using my circle punches- i can get buttons the exact colour to match my project- a nifty trick to save money (and then spend it on something else crafty!)

this page uses the Just Believe set of stamps- i embossed the circles and punched them out and embossed the grassy stamp in the corner. i used certianly celery 12x12, old olive a4 for the matts and the spotty paper is pear pizzaz - the celery paper matched the celery background perfectly but looked a bit pale against the olive so i opted for the slightly darker pear - i love how the stamping up colours work together so well.

this card used marina mist as the background and certainly celery and old olive - very simple and quick to make - i think the tearing took longer than the stamping- i hate wonky tearing!!

thanks for looking
