I seriously enjoy color challenges! So there was no question about joining this Crafty Challenge Blog Hop when I saw the color challenge theme!

I decided to combine the Enduring Beauty bundle with the Gorgeous Gardens die to carry those Garden Green leaves across the card front. You will find all the product details at the end of this post.

Cutting instructions:
