Floral Aprons

Hello friends!  I'm back to play in a couple of challenges.  One of them is new to me.  I've got a little list of challenges that I keep in my phone's Notes app, and the list continues to grow!  

Let's get started! 

At Little Red Wagon, the current challenge is to use dies, and this one closes tomorrow, so I'm just making it in under the wire!  

I'm also going to link this up at the NBUS challenge, which is to use your never-before-used-schtuff.  This cute apron die set from Stampin' Up! is retired, but new to me.  I know it was a popular set, and no wonder.  How adorable!  The possibilities are endless.  I made two in soft pink and soft yellow, inspired by the Stampin' Up! patterned paper.

I used brushed silver cardstock for the cooking tools; they shimmer nicely in real life.



Did you have a good weekend?  I spent plenty of time in my studio, making cards for Valentine's Day.  I sewed holes in my comforter, and my lace curtain (Cristabel's nails did a lot of damage!).  And I watched a movie with my daughter (Disney's Brave) and it was so good!  It's an old movie, at this point, but I don't care.  LOL  I cried near the end, we both did actually.

Can't be mad at this little face...



God bless you,

I couldn't be mad at that face either! Great card! Such lovely colours and I love that you used brushed silver cardstock for the utensils. Thanks for joining us at Little Red Wagon.

These are such soft and pretty cards, Colleen. And your kitters - what a face! Would be hard to be made at it, for sure. Just want you to know I'm still linking back to your "Colleen Bow" tutorial - I did it in today's blog post which will show up on IG a bit later. :D

Just wanted to send a little love your way!

(P.S. - I'm not sure how to get rid of the blog address below, but it's no longer valid.)

Thanks so much, Shea! :-D
What blog address do you mean?

Such cute cards, Colleen! And yes, hard to stay mad at such a cute kitty face. Hope all is well with you.

Such sweet aprons, Colleen! Love the floral print and how the framing brings out those colors! The little utensils are adorable! Brave is one of my favorite Disney movies.

Such sweet and pretty aprons, Colleen! I love the oven mitts to go with them. Really cute rectangle die, too! I have a lot of stuff that's old, but new to me. No matter if I love it!

Oh, darn... I forgot to say how adorable Cristabel is. She looks like such a sweet and petite little thing. You know I love her! No, you cannot be mad.
