Fresh Flowers For You / Fleurs des champs

I struggled so much with this one that I can't really look at it with an objective eye anymore. I think it was the color combo that was throwing me off, because Garden Green is really not my bag of chips. But I decided to keep working at it and reminded myself that it was called a challenge for a reason.

Why don't I let you judge for yourself...

 

 

 
Inspiration : Sketch Mojo Monday #133 & Curtain Call color combo #24

 

 

 

J'en ai arraché avec celle-là! Je me suis battue avec la combinaison de couleurs qui, je dois l'avouer, ne m'inspirait pas terriblement en raison du Vert jardin et maintenant que j'ai réussi à finir ma carte, j'ai de la difficulté à la considérer d'un oeil objectif.

Je vous laisse donc juger par vous-mêmes du résultat...

(Quand je regarde l'enveloppe, je ne peux m'empêcher de me rappeler du dessin animé européen où on voyait un bonhomme marcher sur une ligne et bougonner contre le dessinateur quand la ligne était croche ou brisée. Vous rappelez-vous de ce dessin? Le montage était super simple : un fond de couleur, un bonhomme dont le profil était dessiné d'une ligne blanche... Wow, ça me rappelle des souvenirs! Si quelqu'un sait le nom de ce comique, je serais curieuse de savoir!)

Hello to you!
Your card looks fabulous! Garden Green is especially a hard one for me too! I think using it sparingly is key.
The cartonn you mentioned is called La Linea. Here is a link to one of the episodes from You Tube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDt1W6ORHZA&feature=related
My brother and I were huge fans of that little man, especially when he laughs and spits out at the same time. We used to imitate the little thing he does at the beginning of almost each episode: MMM, baaa,.....
Hope you have fun watching a few episodes. Enjoy the trip down memory lane!
