Our Just Us Girls Color Week Challenge #673 is Terracotta and Green. I am CASEing Hannelie Bester's fabulous card from not long ago that I just love (here.) The team came up with a great variety of ideas for you this week and we hope you will join us! My plan was for my CAS card to look like a terracotta tile courtyard with plants here and there.
Spellbinders: Shopping Run dies
My Favorite Things: Perfect Pool Water stencil
Poppystamps: Whittle Sealife Sentiments
Concord and 9th: Mini ink pads
Stampin' Up!: Brown marker
Ink blending brushes
This is the first time I am using these plant dies and it was fairly easy. I ink blended the leaves and terracotta pot, then assembled them into one unit. I stenciled the "tiles" on the left bottom corner then tried some arrangements of the plant and the sentiment until I was happy with it. I couldn't resist the pun when I was looking for a sentiment. Hope it made you smile.
Looking forward to seeing your ideas in our gallery this week!

Carol...love the dimension you created.
Thanks Elizabeth!
Perfectly CAS and well executed! Love the colors on your plant, as it looks so realistic!!!!
The color of your leaves is wonderful, Carol, and I love that one dropped to the 'tiled' floor.
Thanks ladies!
It like that little bit of stenciling and the cute little pot! This is delightful, Carol!
Fabulous plant in pot! Great use of the colors :)
Love your plant nestled in its pretty terracotta pot. I was 'this close' to using the same set; so many possibilities with the shopping cart collection that I have yet to explore.

I love that plant with the beautiful shading and the texture on the terracotta pot is fabulous! Perfect stenciling, too on the flooring.
Fabulous cas card Carol.
Thank you ladies!!!
Love your CAS card Carol - the stencilled corner is so effective! I can;'t resist a good pun so your sentiment definitely made me chuckle! Thanks for the warm welcome to JUGS this week!
You nailed it with this card! I love it! The placement of the stencil off the corner is so cool! And I love the one leaf that fell off the plant...so cute! Great sentiment too.
