SS Challenge 203 Red

Morning All. Hope you are busy crafting to-day. My mojo had a few days off and I had to fight to make it return. However, this week over at Hels challenge the theme for this week is Red, not a colour I use very much apart from Christmas time.  My main card is white layered with red, I then used a SB die and a lovely little sentiment from Artistic Outpost stamped on white card to highlight the die.  I made the flower from a punch , I used 4 layers all distressed ( Worn Lipstick, Barn Door & Fired Brick ) and I really am pleased with outcome. The ferns are a Marianne die and the little butterfly is a die from Joycrafts.  Hope you like my effort.   Have a lovely Day .    Hugs Rita xx

Hi Rita,This is a very cool red card for a girl who doesn't use red. How pretty are those ferns and your glam flower. Sorry all the pancakes are gone otherwise I'd send you some. Come to think of it I would have to send the Super Star to make you some. Fingers crossed and we shall never say never.

Grand job you've done here for this red challenge. Some great work with various dies and that fern one could be a must-have.
