Zig-zagging Away

Welcome back!  Stilllll sharing photos from my archives, of cards that never made their debut here on my blog.


How 'bout these bold colors?  I know, it's rare to see them here.  One day, I just felt like using up some blue cardstock scraps, and built a card around them with My Favorite Things' Chevron Stripes dies.  I found some zigzaggy patterned paper in my stash that harmonized with all the blues. A bright orange flower from Verve's Brighter Days seemed a good choice to temper all the cool tones, and a sentiment from Hero Arts leads the way.


I am SO glad you could join me here today!

Well, thank goodness you're sharing it now! I love the bold, rich colors, especially a blue and orange color combo. Sometimes I feel like pastels, and sometimes brights. And then there's earthy colors. I love them all!
