For multiple challenges today....so glad to be home with all my play things. I had done a lot of duoprinting with chlorophyll this fall so I used one of the prints for the oval. It's a sweet potato vine leaf, they're very juicy so lots of green squished out. I love techniques where you never know what you'll get, some are great, some are not. I thought the color of the leaf was pretty close to granny apple green for the CC this week. The ef background is done with the highland heather and melon mambo on an ef and some direct to paper. For the sketch, instead of paper on the left, I used ribbon with some glittery twine for today's ABC17...R is for ribbon. Back to the CC-the dessert is sparkly, added some dew drops, the glitter twine and a piece of quartz I picked up on vacation (under the sentiment). It sparkles! I used the same ef for the triangle pieces and sentiment (a mistaken inking of the ef, not to be discarded!), edged in melon mambo. Finally, for our tea party recipient Hildie, I added a tiny butterfly stamped in highland heather. I meant to add some clear glitter which I will still do. I think that's it from me. Oh I edged the oval with the GAG...maybe my leaf looks more like old olive?! Thanks for all these challenges!

Your creativity is amazing! I love the organic feel of the chlorophyll printing. The addition of the little butterfly and ribbon really livens up the design. Beautiful!
