Paperee's First Crafty Secrets Challenge
This card was for Paperee's Crafty Secrets Group 1st challenge WLCS062009. Julie came up with the challenge..."CONTRASTING COLORS! Pick your favorite color and then use it's complement--red/green, blue/orange, purple/yellow, etc. Also feel free to use any shade in between."
I really like this image but unfortunately I tried to find a link to it but couldn't find it on Crafty Secrets website, so maybe it's retired. I hope not, because there are some really cute images on this Crafty Secrets Heartwarming Vintage Homespun Cotton Scraps. I sewed the image on with my trusty sewing machine, which is always fun. The red and green papers used are both from the Crafty Secrets Heartwarming Vintage Radiant paper pad. A Nesties pinking circle was used on the red patterned paper and a Nesties mega rectangle was used on the sentiment. The cookie cutters and sentiment are from Crafty Secrets Clear Art Stamps Sweet Stuff set. I stamped them with VersaFine Vintage Sepia and colored them with my Copics. I cut each one out and mounted it on a dimensional.
I would never have used red and green for anything but Christmas but this came out cute and is definitely not a Christmas card. The challenge was great for me as it got me out of a rut. Thanks Julie!
