Olive Dream

Remember the other day I mentioned that I had made a card just the way I had planned it in my head? And it had worked! Well this one did not happen the same way. I tried a couple of different colour schemes before I settled on this one and then decided that I would complete it for the Stampers Dream Dreamy Challenge, where you needed to create a monochrome card with three different shades of the same colour. I would say I have a light, medium and dark olive green in there wouldn’t you. I used Always Artichoke and Old Olive to brayer the background and stamped the trees in Artichoke and Black. The black matte and the bottom of the card have distressed edges.
I hope to be back with something else tomorrow, thanks for dropping in.
Supplies:
Stamps: Lovely as a Tree, Sincere Salutations
Inks: Basic Black, Old Olive, Always Artichoke
Cardstock: Old Olive, Whisper White
Also: Olive wide grosgrain ribbon
