Play Date Cafe Challenge #58
This was SOOO much harder than I expected it to be! Red & White - how hard can that be?? When I dug through my paper stash, and found that most of my holiday stuff was red/white&green... or distressed red & cream... I became quite determined to do a fairly pristine red & white card :o) So I went with some Jingle patterned papers, taught myself how to make a folded medallion, and pulled out the sewing machine. Even though I quite like my card, it's not Christmassy enough for me... I may glitter it up a bit. Here's our Play Date Cafe inspiration:
Oh, Karen, I love this!! I am just putting together a red & white card now while the kids are napping. You did an awesome job - love the medallion with the layers on top. Fantastic work!
ReplyDeleteSeriously gorgeous! You did a FAB job with these colors and we are so happy you played with us in The Play Date Cafe.
