Okay, now that the trivia portion of the post is over, on to business. This week at Squigglefly the challenge is (obviously) to use the colour green. Actually, the challenge is to make a monochrome green project.
Hmmmm....I'll have to admit it's a bit less monochrome than it should be. (My fault for missing the "monochrome" part when I read what the challenge was.) But, even though I might have cheated a bit this week, that doesn't detract from this great digi! It's called Japanese Bonsai Tree and it's a steal of a deal at 99¢. You can get it for yourself right here.
Oh, and in case you're wondering, the sentiment reads "peace and tranquility." (At least according to Google Translate that's what it says. ;-) )
So why not head over to the Squigglefly Challenge and enter the "Grateful for Green" challenge? You don't need to use a Squigglefly image but if you do use one you'll be eligible for this week's prize.
