Feedback please!!!

I was having a play with colours tonight and made this card. However, my Mum and I both are unsure about the colour combination. I thought it was OK, but she wondered if the blues went with the green. What do you think???? I have included a recipe below.

Materials used:

Stamp sets: Baroque motifs & occasional greetings
Cardstock: purely pomegranate, soft sky, blue bayou, old olive & natural ivory
Stamp pads: Versamark, old olive & soft sky
Accessories: Silver brad, white gel pen, scallop punch, 1 3/4 punch & stampin' dimensionals

Update



Hi all. Just letting you know that the Christmas Stack workshop on the 24th November is full, however I still have some spaces available for the 11th November and the 12th December if any of you are still interested.


This little card I made for my nephew for his 2nd Birthday last month. The stamp set was part of the sale-a-bration promotion last year, so unfortunately is no longer available. What I do want to share with you is in regards to the sentiment I have used. It is from the hostess set 'So many sayings' (Level 1 - pg 19). I wasn't sure what to do with this set initially, because it is three stamps with lots of sayings on each one. But then I discovered that you can use the 'word window' punch (pg 142), and it fits perfectly around all the sayings, so then you have 34 individual sentiments and decorations you can use to accessorise your cards.......now how cool is that!!!
Now it is very easy to get both the stamp set and the punch with out spending a cent. Simply hold a workshop for family and friends in your home, collect sales to the total of $300 (which is very easy) and then as a hostess you can have this stamp set & an additional $30 to spend - which is the cost of the punch......now that's really cool. So if your interested, feel free to contact me.
Materials used:
Stamp set: So many sayings & birthday whimsy
Stamp pads: Soft sky & chocolate chip
Cardstock: Old olive, soft sky, whisper white, really rust & fall flowers DS
Accessories: Word window punch & stampin' dimensionals
