Smile Often and Laugh Always - Pink Gem #77 - Going Green

It's time for another challenge at A Gem of A Challenge and this week is a great one as we want to see you "Going Green!"
I decided to go with the color green but maybe you will decided to use something recycled or maybe even something for Earth Day.
Janet has designed so many New Stamps that you have no excuse not to treat yourself and then come and play!

Challenges:
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes (5 entries only)
Crafty Ribbons - Anything Goes with Ribbon
Oozak - Pearls, Lace and Ribbon (3 entries only)
Milk Coffee - Lace and Pearls
Totally Papercrafts - Flowers and Lace
Sandy's Crafty Creations - Stitching (Real or Faux)
Paper Crafting Journey - Sentiment (3 entries only)
Art Impressions - Layer It Up (2 entries only)
The Pink Elephant - Lift It Up
Oldie but a Goodie - Make It Girly (the butterflies, ribbon and chipboard are the old items)
4 Crafty Chicks - Felt



Card Recipe:
Image - Rainbow Chloe
Medium - Copic Markers
Paper and Sentiment - Sunshowers by Heidi Grace
Chipboard Flowers - Colorbok
Butterflies - Michaels $1 spot
Doily - Wilton
Lace - Hobby Lobby
Ribbon - Michaels
Pearls - Recollections





Lots of layers on this one from the doily to the mats and then I decoupaged Chloe's legs and head for a little bit more pop!
I really love the felt butterflies, they are ages old and I only have a few left.
I hope that you like little Chloe and that you will "Go Green" and come over to play with us at A Gem of A Challenge this week.
