#NancyandJillcolortogether
Hi All! I have something fun for you today. As you know Nancy of Rowhouse Greetings is a good friend if mine. We chat often, sharing cards, tips, techniques and all the crazy things friends share! Like most card makers we need a boost, or mojo recharge and a kick in the backside when we get into a slump. Recently Nancy and I were both feeling this way, so I suggested “lets color the same image once a month and blog about it, sharing on each others blog”. Fun, right?! Go check us out on Instagram too, we started a new hashtag for our collaboration, #NancyandJillcolortogether. Nancy chose the first image, which is from Mo Manning (a favorite of BOTH of us!) called Snowflakes. This is a sweet image, for some reason it makes me think of old timey London. Now, on with the show and tell…
I chose my colors so that they looked a bit faded and worn.
I paired my image with some old music paper, to me it gives the card a Christmassy feel.
