January Blues

It's Blue Monday today according to many of the media pundits, when we are all supposed to be at our lowest ebb after Christmas.  Over at Daring Cardmakers, they are having the January Blues too, but in a much nicer way - as a prompt or dare for a card design.

January Blues

You are free to use the title however you want; it could be a "just to cheer you up" or "sorry to hear you're feeling blue" card,  a card with shades of blue as the main colour, or something else inspired by the heading.  Lets chase the January Blues away with some quality time spent getting creative!


This simple card is made with a couple of free papers from Simply Homemade magazine (not recent), a butterfly image from a pad of images I've also had so long that the front page has gone, so I know not from where it came, a ribbon from my ribbon box and a Papermaze greeting.

    Janice, this is lovely - I adore that beautiful shade of blue, and the offset butterfly looks perfect

    Lovely card! The butterfly is indeed beautiful and I always love a monochrome colour scheme. And stripes. Thanks for sharing with The Daring Cardmakers this week!
