Coloring Down the Lines-Always Artichoke & River Rock

Hello, and welcome to our blog hop.  Robbie is our leader, and I know since you've come from her blog, you are already stoked. She is so talented, and her ideas always get me thinking... her blog is www.inkedx2.blogspot.com.  This week she wanted us to use always artichoke and river rock.  I must say, I think this is the first time I only used 2 colors without a neutral.  this one was pretty easy, considering only 2 colors.  So now lets go to Helen's site at www.bluedahliadesigns.blogspot.com.  Her card is gorgeous, don't you think?  Always is!!!  Thanks for visiting, and have a great day!  Carol Smith

Coloring Down the Lines-Cherry Cobbler and Riding Hood Red

Welcome from Amanda's blog at www.ourcraftyplaydate.blogspot.com.  I know she made a beautiful card that I can't wait to see.  I did not know quite what to do with this color combination (cherrycobbler and riding hood red), so I am not quite sure how I feel about this one.  I like  to do the emboss resist, so I used the riding hood red for that, and it came out a little pale, but that's what it is.  the Rest is done with cherry cobbler.    Cant wait to go to Helens blog either, so let's go!  www.bluedahliadesigns.blogspot.com.  Her blog is so much fun, so creative!  I hope you are enjoying your hop with us.  Why not join in the fun and create your own.  Thanks for visiting.  Carol Smith
