WMMM - Cranberry Sauce

For the past few weeks, Claire at Waltzingmouse has been coming up with a challenge for us every Monday.  I'm a little late in the game because I have been under the weather.  I've been sneaking to my desk between lying in bed and sleeping.  This card took me four days to make - CRAZY!   There is still time to play along before a new challenge is issued on Monday.  You can get all the deets here.   This week is a color challenge that Claire is appropriately calling Cranberry Sauce.

For all the gradient shades of red I layered colored card stock, paper roses, and inked up the heart in three different shades of ink.  To make the accordion heart I stamped 3 hearts, folded them in half and adhered them together stacking one folded half on top of the other.  When I fan folded it open I adhered it to a plain die cut  heart.

Here's my finished card:

Don't forget the blog party is on the 17th of this month.  The theme this time is doilies   We've all got some -  I can't wait to see all the beautiful designs!  You can get all the information here.

Stay healthy!
