I made this for todays inspiration challenge. The challenge site, was quite the challenge for me. It was little kids stuff, and cutesy ootsie. I am not a cutesy stamper AT ALL!!!!!
I liked the blue green theme but thought the two combined would make for a very strange card, so I took the color theme and combined not quite navy and old olive as my blue green combo. I used ivory as my base.
I stamped on white first the bamboo is done in river rock from the embrace life set, then I used markers in always artichoke and choc chip.
I ran the long piece of navy thru the cb for added texture.
