Trick of the Trade Monday.....

Well it's Monday and I am still in NYC this week.  I had some time of the New Year's Holiday to get a few projects done.  One of the bits of info I have learned from some friends that work for a very large card company is that keeping the color combo simple is one of the first keys to having a hit on your hands.  Today's card used that idea as its core--a simple saleable color combo--RED and CREAM

Stamp set is CTMH Mad About You (S1112) an old Stamp of the month

Cricut cut is from the CTMH Art Philosophy Cartridge (p 25) which I cut and layered by 1/4"

The Red paper and ink are both the Ruby Color from CTMH.

Pattern paper is Lilybee Designs North Pole CCP276

Ribbon is old CTMH Colonial White Grosgrain


Have a great week, make it the best yet (even though it is only the first week of the year)-
