Blue Patchwork Card


 In the previous post, I mentioned that I found a forgotten pack of colored cardstock and matching envelopes in 4 different colors, so today I'm sharing  the blue version. I just used random snippets of blue designer papers and added a retired SU! birthday sentiment, then added 3 little gemstones from Gina Marie Designs. It was simple and quick to put together once I figured out the measurements so I made patchwork cards in all 4 colors. I'll post the pink and green versions in the future.

Thanks for stopping by and make it a great day whatever you do!

  7. You are so clever, dear Carol, such great idea measure the scraps you used to make this beautiful patchwork design, so you can easily make not only one or two, but FOUR versions of it!! This one in blue tones looks so sweet and peaceful, love the gingham and can't decide if love more this or the previous card! Waiting to see the pink and the green versions!
    Sending hugs and love on your way, dear friend! Have a great weekend!
