FCCB Challenge Me Monday!!!

Happy MONDAY!! And yes, it is a Happy Monday!!! Why, you ask? Because it's my first Monday on the Design Team for the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog!!! YIPPEE!! The challenge put forth is called "Hip to be Square" and we were asked to create a square-shaped card using green and gold. Now, automatically, I thought of St. Patrick's Day...but then I nixed that one. I'd already created 2 projects for the Irish holiday, and I'm NOT EVEN IRISH!! LOL! I decided to go for a simple, yet elegant, 'thinking of you' card...here it is. I used 3 shades of green (the lightest shade actually looks ivory in these photos!!) on top of a brown patterned background, and simply added some gold accents in the form of stickles and silver brads that I made gold with gold glitter embossing powder. I hope you like it and maybe I've inspired you to head on over to FCCB and link up your own project for the challenge!!
