Heartfelt in Green

Hello, and welcome to another Inspiration Wednesday with Heartfelt Creations!
Today I have a quick and easy card to share with you that uses the wonderful Blessing to Me Precut Set from the new Sweet Juliet Collection.  I love all things natural including botanicals and greenery.  This set was perfect for highlighting just that~


I went for a clean design and kept the colors to a minimum so the green would really shine. 
Used the kraft paper and pieces of burlap to add to the natural feel of the card.
