This week's Paper Blooms challenge is to use the color combo of red, white, and blue in honor of Memorial Day.
Since Memorial Day kicks off the beginning of summer, I went with that idea for my card. The gingham ribbon reminds me of a picnic tablecloth, and the cherries represent all the yummy fresh fruit to be had.
So, want to play along? Just link up your creation on the Paper Blooms blog. You do NOT need to own any Paper Blooms to participate, although if you've got some, we'd love to see them!
Stamps: Cherry on top (A muse)
Paper: Bazzill textured white, Real Red, Summer Picnic dp (SU)
Ink: Real Red
Accessories: crocheted flower (Paper Blooms), ribbon (Michaels), scallop circle punch, pearls (Kaisercraft)
