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!
