Michelle Perkett studio Earth Day blog hop

Hello! And welcome to my stop on the Michelle Perkett Studio Earth Day blog hop, if you came here from Deanne's blog you are right on track.. if not please pop on over to the beginning Michelle's blog

Michelle wanted us to Create something using only recycled material (other than ink and markers/paint) cards are fine but lets get creative with your recycled plastic, paper, cardboard and whatever you like, as long as its recycled!!:)

Also, there must be some green in your design as well! OK.. so, here is my card...

I used this gorgeous emerald enchantment stamp and had to colour the circle shape in like a globe for the earth day theme! I used a mix of different Greens and blues, Blue greens for this card and coloured on Xpress IT's Copic blending card (it's so lovely!)... I also added some Kinderglitz sparkles. Want to see some before shots ... I used 2 old cards and a pasta box for the main elements of this card...



your next stop on your hop is Tana

Thanks for hopping by!

  4. Great job Sammi and i love the planet globe behind her. I had an idea that would involve a planet, not for this but something else Earth Day inspired but how do you draw or paint a planet, well done :)
