PATTIES CREATIONS CHALLENGE : Go Green - Challenge #17


Are you ready for a new challenge, new prizes, new rules, a new spot for posting the winners, and a new face among the DT?
Welcome to Challenge #17, where the theme is use the color Green in honor of St. Patrick's Day! JUST REMEMBER, if you use an image from Pattie's Creations, you will get an extra entry to win! Stop over at her Etsy Store and browse around. There are FREEBIES too, just click on FREEBIES or the link in the Menu Bar on top and grab one.

Before I get into telling you what I did with my card for the challenge, we need your prayers for our DT member Natacha. Natacha's mom, Debbie, has gotten the news that her cancer has returned. Please keep her and the family in your prayers. Debbie loves handmade cards and crafts, so if you need their addresses you can find them at my Blog.

The theme for this week's challenge is 'Green'. We'd like to see creations with the color Green. Our DT, and you've already been introduced to Melody, created some wonderful inspirations for this week's challenge, and they love to receive comments, I know that I do, so click on their names to view their blogs.

A winner will be chosen by Random.org. The winner will receive 3 images of their choice from Pattie's Etsy Store and an 'I Won' badge from the sidebar.

'Allie's Top 3 Award' will be given to 3 entries that have caught our eye. The winners will be chosen by the DT Coordinator, and can proudly display our badge on their sidebar. These winners will also be put into a monthly random draw for a chance to win 2 images of their choice from Pattie's Etsy Store. The drawing will always fall on the last day of the month. Please make sure you grab your badge and place it on your sidebar (HINT, we'll be looking for it)!
We also have a new spot for posting the challenge Winners! It's at the top of the sidebar called 'WINNERS CORNER'.

The challenge starts now and ends Thursday, March 24th at 1PM CST (Central Standard Time).

The card that I have used for my DT card for this challenge is ....



I used one of the sets of gifts, and used my watercolour, regular and neon colouring pencils to colour the image and I added green glitter glue to the dots on the image. The ribbon on the image was coloured in neon pencils and sealed using an art sealant.

The image was matted on some leafy green paper that had the edges inked, and the sentiment was printed using wordart.
