Claire has offered a very generous prize of 3 of her gorgeous digi stamps of your own choice as a prize for this fortnights Challenge, your card has got to be in all shades of "GREEN" it doesnt necessarily have to be created around one of Claire's stamps (but obviously it would be nice if it was,) and it must me suitable for man or boy.

My card for this challenge has been created from one of Claires digi stamps, a Dinosaur and I decided it

would be ideal to create it for one of grandsons. Ive printed it onto white card and coloured it yet again with my copic pens and my Sakura glitter pen, then used my Nestabilitie label die to cut it out, and then used the die to create a mount for it by drawing around the outside of it then cutting it out by hand. The sentiment was created on my computer and cut out in the same way.

My base card is a 8"x 8" white card with a first layer of green card with one of four designs from the Nitwit Downloads, this one is called the Fabusaurus collection, and the first paper is an all over design of dinosaurs, for the second mount Ive used another piece of green card with a spotty paper and stuck this down my card. The third and fourth layers are one a check design and second a plain green paper, but for both of these Ive used a dinosaur punch from EK success along both edges, and layered them up and stuck them across the card in the centre.

The mounted image has been stuck on top of this strip and my sentiment at the bottom on the right.
