Peachy Keen Stamps :: Sketch Challenge 44 w/a Twist

I have decided to push my creativeness by doing more challenges and what not. First up has been Unity Stamp challenges and now I'm branching out. I've been following Peachy Keen now for a while and decided yesterday that I needed to do this sketch. I have the perfect German card to show you. Below is the challenge details with a link to the original blog. Hope you come and play along as well!


THE CHALLENGE
Create a card or layout based on the SKETCH provided
TWIST
Use a monochromatic color scheme
What exactly is monochromatic? Using tints and shades of the same color. (i.e. if you choose "red", you must use red, pink, light pink, medium pink, etc.) Black and white will also be allowed! C'mon, it will be fun and SUCH a challenge!

Peachy Keen Challenge

First I selected all my shades of green. Then I cut out three circles with my gypsy and cricut. I added some polka dotted ribbon to a strip of paper and attached the circles behind the paper. I also cut the star out using my cricut and gypsy. I stamped his sweet little face using Peachy Keen Stamps. Using my cricut once again I cut out the word 'danke' which in German means thanks! I plan on sending this card to a dear friend of mine who sent me a present this week in the mail. Thanks for stopping by!






Paper came from different places, mainly from Walmart years ago. The ribbon also came from Walmart.
