Variations using Friends Never Fade….

Jul 7th, 2010 Posted in All Occasion cards, Card Classes, Gifts, NEW PRODUCTS, Retiring Sets, Specialty Classes | 3 comments »

Here are the variations I did after everyone left and I had all the card sets leftover. I’m trying to make up all the cards left over from classes so I don’t have a million “project” boxes setting around with unfinished projects!!

I used Friends Never Fade and the same colors as during the Make n Take session: Daffodil delight, SO Saffron; Marina Mist, Bashful Blue, and coordinating ribbons.

Come back tomorrow for something else… and Friday for the Sketch Frenzy Friday!!
