I created my card very simply.  It's a lot of embossing and a lot of layers.  I used a partial sentiment and the two ducks from the new Duck Hunting set.  I needed some scenery for them to fly over, so I borrowed some cattails from a set called Marsh Silhouettes.  I embossed all my images and then layered the green and white with some brown.  I drew my inspiration from a button I found for Ducks Unlimited.
I think it's pretty clear to see how I came about my design, even if I didn't have the exact same green color.
 
Thanks for stopping by!  Don't forget to keep going on the hop.  Next, you will visit Sue!

Love the white embossing against the beautiful green and layers look great. The black layers created the perfect frame for each panel. Well done!
