I have a quick card for 3 challenges...F4A329 (reflect weather), WT587 (trash to treasure), and CC586 (green, pool & mist).
You can see by my card, that the weather is cloudy & overcast. The trash to treasure item is the little black bow..it came off of a pkg & I saved it from the trash. Seriously, on my best ribbon tying day (if there is such a thing... ribbon & I have a long standing love/hate relationship..I love ribbon, it hates me!), I could NEVER tie a bow that small.
To make my card, I stamped w/ Memento, colored w/ Copics, masked & sponged in the cloudy sky, then over stamped w/ Versafine. The clouds were done w/ a cloud stencil I made by cutting the cloud shape edge w/ a pair of scallop scissors. I left the bg water white so the entire scene wouldn't be covered in blue. I added an embossed green layer, the trash bound bow & a pair of die cut white dandelions.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & Copic colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Love your card Julie. The embossed bg, die cut flower and recycled bow frame your cute froggy scene perfectly! Thanks for turning Trash to Treasure and playing in my challenge.

Grey and overcast just about sums up the weather here today - but somehow it looks much more appealing on your card, Julie! Love the embossed background and white dandelion die-cuts.
