CSF Saturday Hop "The Green Hornet"

 

This week our Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is the color GREEN, my second favorite color, though I do like them all! 🌈

Today's Christmas in July card features Garden Green and Granny Apple Green, with some Old Olive Glimmer as well. So Very Merry is such a fun stamp set, and fussy cutting the bells was a piece of cake since it's a small image with all straight sides. I think Wild Wheat looks a lot like antique gold, so that's what I used for the bells.

The mistletoe greenery was colored with Light Old Olive, Light Shaded Spruce, and then again with Light Old Olive to match the Garden Green card base. Why we don't have Garden Green Stampin' Blends is a mystery, but I can make do! And, yes, I know mistletoe berries are white, but I wanted a little more red to go with the bow.

 

That's it for this week - see you next Saturday! Up next is Libby Fens at Libby Stamps. Or click the "back" button to go back to Lori at Loritamarie Crafts.
