Blue and Green

We've just returned from eleven days on the road.  We had a fabulous trip to Glacier National Park in Montana where we spent six nights in our cozy tent followed by a couple of days of fun at Silverwood Theme Park in Idaho.  We saw thirteen grizzly bears in Glacier, mostly from a distance, thank goodness, so that was definitely one of the highlights of our trip.

Last night I had to play along with my favorite challenge, Less is More, which I've been missing the last few weeks.  The challenge this week is to use blue and green.

For my first card I paper pieced a flower stamp that I picked up at Michaels a while back.  I used two shades of blue for the flowers.  The sentiment is Fiskars.  I ran the main panel through the Cuttlebug with my PTI linen impression plate for some texture.

For my second card I used a favorite image from Hero Arts delicate leaf clusters.  I inked it first in green and then rock and rolled the edges in navy blue.  I spritzed it lightly with water and then stamped.  I added the sentiment in navy.  The first one is stamped on PTI rustic white and the second is stamped on a piece of watercolor paper and then impressed with a PTI impression plate.

I'm looking forward to doing some blog hopping and getting caught up with everyone.  If you've made it this far, here are a few photos from our trip.
