Play Date Cafe Color Splash

I love playing in The Play Date Cafe challenges.  I just made the deadline with this card.
The current challenge, #40, is to use black and white with a splash of green

The inspiration photo.

I used a sketch from the magazine Paper Crafts' Go to Sketches, page 36.

Other challenges I entered:
Close up pix of silver balls.


It's past midnight.  I've made cards all throughout today.  I am very tired.  What's that, Pillow?  Here I come!
