A deep green side fold card with marble DP in light/dark green. Made the stacked pot design in a Paint program. The top pot/flowers were online ready for me to color. Looked for more pots and stacked them. I colored/shaded with my Tombow brush pens and added a lavender layer underneath. I free-hand stroke the grass at the base. Colored the sky/sun with chalks and sprayed with matt spray to seal. Added to butterflies, and purple ribbon trim with a tie. Made a wee stamped tag with purple inked edges. On the inside, I used the same marble paper, stamped my greeting, and added a flourish border at the bottom. I love green and purple/lavender together. My coloring is hit and miss while still trying to teach myself to shade properly. But it's fun to "try".

Wonderful card. The stacked flowerpots, with the pretty purple flowers is so refreshing and ready for Spring. Your coloring looks great, and I love the grass.

I love purple/green together too and this looks wonderful. Great job on the adding the pots to stack with your potted plant. It's fun to create our own look with programs like Paint. Your coloring looks fab -- you really don't give yourself enough credit for that -- and that grass is super! Wonderful card to both say Thank You and send a friend a bit of Spring.

Wonderful spring card with the stacked pots and the purple flowers blooming from the topone, Betty. Like the marbled bg and the satin ribbon/bow and sweet butterflies finish it so nicely.
