TRR#50 - Mix and Match

I hope everyone had a beautiful Easter weekend.  I always like making the "day after" a big holiday a big lazy holiday for ME!  I do so much cooking and cleaning to get the house ready for company that I need a day to recuperate   In all reality though I will  spend a few hours cleaning up all evidence that there was a house full of people - some quick vacuuming and putting away dishes and pans that have been left out overnight.  Maybe my sleepy head son will help me out... NOT!


If you are planning on a lazy day like me you might want to check out The Ribbon Reel Challenge this week.  The inspiration photo was chosen by Michelle and you are to create a card mixing  and matching papers - one solid color paper and two pattern papers.  Easy peasy right?  I made a birthday card using some papers from October Afternoon and of course some solid red for the scallop border.  The stamps are from the last Waltzingmouse release, and of course some pretty trims from The Ribbon Reel Store.
