Color Dare Card Pattens Friend

I have a busy day today. I need to design my cards for my retirement village ladies. These are simple cards but I like to make sure I put a wow in there that is easy as I have to keep in mind their vision is not very good as well as their hand strength. Got any good ideas? Send them my way. My card today uses the color challenge from The Color Dare blog.…

Working the new colors

I also used the bow challenge from the Our Creative Corner blog – you had to use a bow on your card. I used the Vintage Vogue set as I hadn’t used it in a while. I love the colors on this card. I am…
