Kitchen card

Hello sunny Wednesday.  I hope everyone is having a good week!  We have a super fun challenge this week over at the Papercraft Star.  This week we challenge you to use your kitchen colors to inspire you.  Unfortunately I don't really have kitchen colors.  I'm in the process of repainting so I'm not sure what color the kitchen will end up being.  I used the theme I went with when we first moved in, which was cherries.  Back then I found it difficult to find anything with cherries on it.  I had to make my own curtains and my mom hand embroidered tea towels for me.  For my card I started with a real red cardstock.  I matted some designer patterned paper from SU (retired).  I then used this vintage scrap image from Crafty Secret Heartwarming Vintage images.  I matted this vintage style image with some Kiwi Kiss cardstock and added a simple grosgrain ribbon.  I do hope you join us this week and be sure to take a peek at what our design team has come up with to further inspire you!

Hugs,
Anitra

  5. Vintage images, one of my most favorite things ! ( I remember ads looking just like this, though my mom never had quite that glamorous look, and certainly never smiled after slaving in the hot kitchen ... ) Really cute, and I do love the cherries, great theme ! Hugs -J-
