Brown and green?? : CYCI#91 Color Challenge

Wednesday, 21 October 2015
The Can You Case It challenge for the week is to use brown, green and neutrals. Brown is definitely not one of my go to colours, in fact I tend to forget it exists a lot of the time, and I tend to use green tends more as an accent colour with blue so this was going to be a challenge. I love challenges that take me out of my comfort zone and help me to think outside the box and I really love the card I came up with.
