Cut it Up Challenge #306 ~ Feeling Blue

Hi Crafty Friends,
Time for another Cut it Up Challenge.Our theme for #306 is Feeling Blue ~ use blue as the dominant color.
Here's my project.

I had so much fun using a variety of Pinkfresh Studio products on this card.

Products used:

Joyful Days press plate plates, dies, and stencil

Nested Arches

Dotted Scallops Cover Plate

Ink Cubes - Morning Sky set

Glitter Drops

I love that you can match your die cuts to your stencil or stamped images just by inking.  You don't always have to have the coordinating card stock.

And for this challenge, leaves don't always have to be green, right?

I hope you'll play along at
