RED Letter Day

So much fabulous red in the Jingle Belles Gallery ... thanks so much for joining our color fun.

Here are a few that particularly caught our eyes.

Vicki of Crafting Clare's Paper Moments

shared a gorgeous ombre watercolor card in red ... 

and the dimension of the blooms is the perfect finishing touch.

Deborah Frings of Deborah's Gems

rocked the red pinstripes with her yummy mug of Christmas cheer.

Lorraine of Paper Vernissage

perfectly combined buffalo plaid, text and a fun patterned bear

with an absolutely perfect sentiment.

Join us back at midnight for a some sticky fun for the holidays.

Better Off Red!

We're still making cards which predominantly feature the color *RED* and you still have plenty of time to join the fun, which we hope you will. Meanwhile, here's what we made this week:

Lauren's Other Card

Lauren says, "There are stash items in use here of nearly every age imaginable! The beautiful Santa is an Authentique journal card, which I've framed up with part of an Idea-Ology Vignette Box Cover. Both of the above were post-holiday treats to myself from Paper Anthology. The tiny red star sequins are a brand new item coming soon to Eyelet Outlet which I'm technically not supposed to be using yet (so shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, ok?). The red mat and lightly patterned kraft cardstock are old enough that I'm not sure what they were leftover from. The twine and jute were on a package I unwrapped in December. The sheet music, trading stamps and xmas ornament background are all vintage, plus I've inked, torn and distressed them a bit more, just for fun."

Stephanies's Other Card

Stephanie says, "I used two pieces of two-sided designer paper and a wooden heart to make this fun holiday card using the Sketch from Crazy 4 Challenges ... sometimes it's all about paper."

Remember you have until 6pm EST on Wednesday to join the RED fun.

Rudolph the *RED* Nosed Reindeer

In case you couldn't guess from the title of this week's prompt, we're creating cards that feature PREDOMINANTLY the color RED (not just a bit, but a lot of RED).

Here are our creations:

Stephanie's Card

Stephanie says, "I started with this week's Sunday Stamps Tag You're It Sketch and a cute little North Pole tag in my stash.  I added a red designer paper card base, a Doodlebugs Santa Doodlepop in his recliner and a sentiment from Hero Arts Stylized Christmas Trees stamped in Red Ink ... and the grand finale, some glittery red ribbon."

Lauren's Card

Lauren says, "This is a pretty good example of a collage card which has absolutely nothing vintage on it... though admittedly some of the stickers are pretty old! Santa is from an Idea-Ology Holiday Sticker Book, and the oversized plaid paper is My Mind's Eye's "Holly Jolly" collection; both came from Paper Anthology this past December. The rest were stickers and diecuts and bits of paper from my collection that I punched into circle shapes if they weren't already, and clustered around my Santa-adorned journaling card. And yes, pretty much everything is RED!"
