Hello, we're ready to go with Color Hues #82 on this first day of the month. Seriously! How can it be March?
We have summery colors of Turquoise and Green which Tracey has chosen for us to create with. There are lots of themes possible for this one!
I've been looking to add some cards for guys to my stash, or at least some cards that aren't all flowers. The Monstera dies from Altenew were on sale recently and I made a purchase. Pulling them out of my never-been-used-pile for today's card.
I began by using tone on tone inking in an ombre pattern with the Sketched Lines stencil - also new. I think it provided just the right interest for the crisp colors of card stock.
The layering dies add wonderful dimension too.
I loved using these hues, and wait until you see the DT samples. How about your turn? We hope you'll play along with us at Color Hues!
Thanks for visiting today. I will see you again soon!
Be yourself
Have delight in your craft
Make something beautiful!

Wonderful two tone leaf stems popped up on your panel! Love the monstera leaves! Julia xx
Those monstera leaves look great against the tone on tone background and the large sentiment compliments the whole design. :)
The bright and happy hues of turquoise and green on this card are wonderful! Male or female--anyone would be happy to receive this fun card!
Love how you did your stenciled background on this card Cindy...it gives just enough interest but doesn't take away from your two toned leaves which are beautiful!! Awesome card my friend and sure hope each day finds you feeling better!! Hugs. :0)
I love your card, Cindy! Love that you made the leaves two-toned and what a great purchase too. They are certainly going to get tons of use. Take care!
What a great guy card, Cindy! Love the two toned leaves!
I love the crispness, too, Cindy! Your designs are always impeccably executed! Well done on the ombre stenciling for a delightful background. This is a card for any age or gender! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
Such wonderful monstera dies and I love the two tone leaves along with the wonderful dimension you gave them on the card front. Fabulous card, Cindy!
There's something about a Monstera Leaf, they're just so beautiful! Love your two tone layering technique--very pretty!
Your two-tone Monstera leaves are eye-catching and, paired with the stenciled background, make for a crisp, fresh, wonderful hello card. Love this!

I saw this on the NBUS challenge and wanted to pop in to say that your card is fabulous! I love those monstera dies and the stenciled background is perfect!
These are one of my favorite plants and I love how you designed them two toned. Sorry I'm late to the commenting party. This is fabulous.
