I absolutely love Dawn McVey's cards, so why not have my first post be a response to one of her card challenges--Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #18:
. . . and here's the card I created:
Now, the colour in the photo is making the raspberry look more orange (sorry).
Supplies-- this is where I'm the novice--I don't always keep packaging/labels, so I've forgotten where half of them have come from.
Cardstock: I bought the green cardstock at a garage sale, so I have no clue as to name of colour or company; Raspberry patterned cardstock ???
Stamps: Border stamp repeated on cream cardstock--Stampology Border Stamps; "thanks a bunch" stamp--See-D's Phrases Collection
Ink: ColorBox Fluid Chalk Ink--Dark Brown; Distress Ink Walknut Stain
Embellishments: Ribbon--Offray Antique White; Pink jewels--local Dollar store
Yay--I did it--losing my Blog Virginity was not so bad ;)
This card is super cute!
ReplyDeleteQuestion...any chance your hubby's name is Marc? I went to teachers college with a Marc Frayne who got married shortly after, and I believe has two sons! If so, SMALL WORLD!!!!
Tammy,
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card - welcome to the world of blogging...I just started in July - very addictive and relaxing at the same time! Does that make sense!
Lisa--it is indeed a small world! You did go to Teacher's College with my husband Mark. He's teaching Phys. Ed now at a local high school. Are you teaching? I like your blog!
