Sentimental Sundays Goes Green!

Welcome back for another Sentimental Sundays' challenge.  This week's challenge is one that is very popular in Blogland these days - "Go Green!"  I suppose you could interpret that a couple of ways either to use the color green OR use something that is repurposed/recycled/reused...you decide!  But the most important rule - don't forget your sentiment!  We have had to disqualify some amazing entries from our winners list because they didn't use a sentiment...don't let that be YOU!

I have been really loving my Cat's Pajamas stamps lately (but need to buy some more because I'm sure you are tired of seeing the penguin and this whale...but they are soooo freakin' cute!)  Anyhoo, this week's TCP Tuesday challenge is a fun one: "We are challenging you to go back through our past TCP Tuesday Challenges and make a card using one of those past challenges."  Fun, right?  I have only recently discovered Alma and the gals so it was a lot of fun going back to see what I missed!  :)  When I got to TCP Tuesday #115 I found this AWESOME photo inspiration that I *had* to use because: #1 - The colors are PERFECT for the Sentimental Sundays challenge and #2 - We are in the process of renovating our kitchen and I have been scouring the web and magazines for backsplash ideas and have seen lots of tiles like these ones...delicious!

And then I thought...why stop at only one challenge?  Why not combine a couple more?  So, I went to TCP Tuesday #134 and found a sketch and then TCP Tuesday #118 asked us to use twine...easy peasy!!

DSP  Ink: Garden Green, Versafine Onyx Black  Accessories: Waves Cut-Ups Die (TCP), paper piercer, Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder, dimensionals, twine, buttons, striped grosgrain ribbon.

Thanks for stopping by today - what do you have planned for the rest of your weekend?  Hopefully the weather is sunny and happy wherever you are.  Enjoy!
