Sorry! No RED today!



Today is the first of a new set of Friday challenges at SC. The challenge was to use texture, a color you seldom use, and dp.

Since I always use RED, that was out. Darn, and I was already going through withdrawal after so many other colors!! Anyway, I NEVER use Bordering Blue. It's just a little too gray for me. I went out with Mom a couple of days ago and helped her buy out dp at M's. (We didn't leave much!!) Going through it, I came across this FAB K & Co. dp, and guess what?? Just matches BB. I also had this wonderful ribbon that's more like paper than fabric, and it was perfect.

Polished this off with a pretty image, silver domes and punches. In spite of the fact that there's no RED, I really like it. I hope you do too. Hugs to all.

Anne, this is fabulous and so beautifully detailed. You really worked the bordering blue! Love the flowers and butterfly detailing! Wonderful card!

I guess there was NO way you could have made a card with red as your least used color, huh? LOL!
