Gatorland

The cricut circle challenge this week was either to use a rainbow pallette of colors or a monochromatic green scheme, with just a touch of gold.  I chose to scrap these pictures from our Gatorland trip in 2009.
The background paper is from DCWV safari stack and the solid cardstock all comes from the CM Shades of Green pack (I don't think they sell them anymore).  I cut the letters from Zoo Day (bought it on Black Fri, finally used it today!).  The frame around the pictures came from Base Camp and the alligator is from Animal Kingdom.
I even used green ink for the journaling.  I had some green google eyes-a little big, but I think they give the gator a humorous look.  I ran the dark green through the cuttlebug using the snake print from the Animal Prints cuttlebug folder.  I added gold brads to fulfill all the requirements.
Here's a close up of the texture on the gator:
