Kathy is the featured stamper this week! I cased this for the teapotter challenge: Color Wheel 101 by muscrat at Splitcoaststampers. Changed colors, added leaves to the trees and made a H.B. card instead of Christmas.
The teapotters are sending cards to Clint (Vikkijo's dh). He likes the outdoors and also likes the show Swamp People. I had to google that and it is all about alligators. I think this card would look better without having added the extra grass with a stamped alligator but I thought Clint would get a kick out of seeing it.
Also for Ann's new round of the alpha challenge. Liz (lazylizard) came up with using colors for this round. A is for Avocado and when Ann mentioned that avocados are greenish, almost black, I thought of evening evergreen.

Oh my! This is terrific! Those trees and the floating clouds above them look wonderful. I don't think this card would look better without the alligator. I think it adds a great bit of dimension and really fits the purpose. (Clint's love of Swamp People). I'm sure he will love it!

Wow, Shirl, you did a great job combining all these challenges! I think Clint will enjoy the outdoor scene and will get a laugh out of the alligator you added to touch on the Swamp People theme.

This is over the top amazing! I'm a green lover so there's that....wow all the shades look so cool on the trees. And the tiny alligator is great...love how you snuck that in there.

Awesome job combining challenges, Shirl. I LOVE that leafy tree die and you used it to perfection. That little gator hiding in the swamp grass is too fun. I think Clint will get a kick out of that too -- well out of the entire card. I'm a green lover too so I'm with Polly on this -- over the top amazing!

Love the green and the change of seasons that the trees on both cards so beautifully represent!
