Red and Kraft for Color Hues

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Another year and another Color Hues Challenge, this time brought to us by Sheri.


Here are the colors that Sheri picked.

My first thought was a winter scene and I do need cards for winter birthdays,
but Valentine's Day is right around the corner and as fast as the time is
rushing by, I didn't think it was too early to start on valentines.

I die cut two hearts.  One was cut from a piece of red plaid and the other
from Kraft cardstock.  I cut off the top of the Kraft heart, embossed the bottom with
the subtle embossing folder and added it to the bottom of the plaid.
For extra stability, I cut another heart from Kraft and added it to the back 
of the heart.

I added some little sprigs that were hanging around to give the heart a little
more something.  The background was from a play date with Nance.  The 
pine embossing keeps with the masculine feel.

The love is an old Penny Black die and cut from a snippet of red cardstock.
It's actually two layers for stability.

Our talented Guest Designer, Stefanie Severin and our awesome
Design Team have lots of inspiration for you.  I hope you'll check them out
and join us at Color Hues.

Turning the Page January 2025

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Happy New Year!

I hope 2025 brings you good health and happiness.

Here's our January page.

 

I make calendars each year for my desk and my family.

 

I thought I'd set up a regular post on the first day of each month to share them.

 

I hope you enjoy my “Turning the Page” posts.

 

By the way, the calendars 4 ½ x 7 inches and and can be displayed on an easel

or hung on a push pin or magnetic hook.  We all have a different way to display them.

 

If you would like a word document with the calendar, email me

and I will be glad to send it to you so you can design your own.

Email link is on the sidebar.
