What goes with blue?

 Hello lovelies, how are you doing? Okay I hope in these strange October days. 

Now I wouldn't say that I avoid blue, but it really isn't my "go to" colour so my DT piece for 



was a challenge for me in itself....BLUE plus another colour.


My regular visitors will know that I am somewhat addicted to paper pads so it will not be a shock when I tell you that during a ( masked up, socially distanced) trip to The Works, five of the little devils jumped into my basket. I didn't have the heart to put them back on the shelf!! Anyway this one was blue and a pretty shade of pink, a perfect combo for this sweet pop up Christmas card. I used my Lawn Fawn die set for the base, cut a snowy hill that I glittered, and dug out Mama Elephant Reindeer Games stamp set for little Rudolph and his lady friend, who were coloured with Promarkers.

I hope that you will join us.

Keep well everyone and see you soon xx

Pale blue and pink are not a colour combo I would usually think of but you've pulled it off here Sarah.
Hope you are keeping well, the OH is pointing the gable end of the old bullpen, praying it will stay dry! :)

I'm exactly the same with blue Sarah. What a cut creation and I'm amazed to read so many paper pads ended up in our basket.

The good news is that you USE your paper pads, Sarah, and that's better than those of us who buy, but then hoard! Your pop-up box is just adorable with this cute little reindeer pair!! Keep safe! Hugs, Darnell
