Phindy's Friday Challenge - Going Green

Welcome to Friday and welcome to this week's Phindy's Place Challenge.  This week we are Going Green.  You can interpret this two ways:  you can make a cad using the colour green or you can make your card green by recycling, which is what I've chosen to do.  As long as you use one of Phindy's fabulous images then either or both theme is great!  The gorgeous chocolate swirl paper was part of the wrapping for some chocolates.  I'd hoped to paper piece onto it but it has a shiny finish and that didn't work.  The ribbon was part of the packaging for some card blanks that I bought, it was plain white and I've coloured it with a Copic.  The embossed DP is a small scrap that I found, that's not really recycling though:).

I've used the sketch from Mojo Monday for my card.  The image is, of course, a Phnidy's Place image called Sooo Good, that mouse looks like he's having a good time!  The background is coloured with chalks, image with Copics and Glossy Accents on the cakestand and the berries.
My card is also for the following challenges:
A Spoonful of Sugar - Animal Crackers
Paper Sundaes - Mixed Media
