GREEN CAS CHALLENGE AT THE OUTLAWZ

Happy St. Patrick's Day!! 
Are you wearing your green today? 
That's the inspiration for today's challenge at The Outlawz - create a CAS card that is monochromatic green, any theme. 
One neutral may be used otherwise everything else needs to be green.

So here is my monochromatic green card:

The image is the current freebie from A Day for Daisies and I coloured her in shades of green alcohol markers.  Even her skin has a green tinge to it.  I used a generous layer of Stickles (that's why her hair seems to be a different colour).

To created the scaly texture of her tail, I used a colourless blender and a white gel pen.

The sentiment "Vert Sirene" was computer generated in a downloaded font called "alphabits squared" and the corner is punched.  


The base card is green.
