We're still Celebrating Rudolph (and the RED Baron) at Jingle Belles this week by creating cards that primarily feature the color RED.
Here is how we created with RED this week:
Lauren says, "I am fairly proud of how many scraps of RED patterned paper I combined to make this card (for the record, it's nine); and also the fact that I unearthed and used not one, not two, not three... but FOUR ancient border punches to do so! There are also eight (RED!) stickers; three (RED!) Eyelet Outlet brads and two (RED!) circle diecuts involved. I sewed around the edges to keep the edges on all those borders from curling up and called it a RED-letter day."
Stephanie says, "One thing I like to do when I'm working on a single color design is to pull out all of the scraps of designer paper I have in my scrap bin that are in that color and see what comes together. Once I did that this week, I decided to cut mostly 5/8" strips of cardstock and create a quilted background (a few were slightly wider or narrower because it worked with the design like the tiny poinsettias in the bottom right). Since the scrap of cardstock I used for the base was a long rectangle, I ended-up cutting it down into a slimline size. I added a Simple Stories Holly Jolly Page Pieces Santa and a stamped sentiment from Simon Says Stamp The Man, The Myth."

Link your (mostly) RED cards on the original post by Wednesday evening, February 25th.
