Color Hues Challenge #28 - Red & Kraft

Hello friends.  Playing along with the Color Hues Challenge where they are looking for RED & KRAFT on our cards.


These colors definitely say Christmas to me, so that's the direction I went with my card.  Take a look...


I'm kinda hooked on the mini slimline card size (6 1/4 x 3 1/4), and made this card using SU!'s Forever Fern stamp set and Real Red & Crumb Cake inks.  The dies are from Gina K's Master Layouts #7 set, and have been getting a workout lately!  The sentiment is an older PTI stamp and fit beautifully inside the circle die!  A few gemstones and a really, really old piece of sheer red ribbon finished off my card.

Lots of awesome inspiration from the DT that you can check out right HERE to play along.  This challenge is open till the 29th.

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
