I am excited for today's challenge because it is all about pastel colors! 

Today's challenge is make a card using pastel colors!

Here is my project:




Strawberry from Indie Art
Tag from Sizzix Die Cut
Twine
Preserves Embossing folder chalked and inked
Papers from DCWV, and Martha Stewart

I used my sewing machine to sew the ribbon to the paper

    Looked at my card for today, 3/9, and the colors are more bright than pastel so Carri please take a look & let me know if too bright? Thanks.
