Green Thumb - Spring

Catch the Bug has a challenge with the Theme: Green Thumb - basically, when you hear Green Thumb what comes to mind? Well, for me the color green, flowers, gardening, bugs and Spring ~  just to name a few. I am calling my card creation Green Thumb Spring. I will be using Stella Sketch 132 for this card and entering it in both Catch the Bug and Stella Sketch Challenges for this week ~ thanks for stopping by. Enjoy your week.
