Sassy Cheryl Challenge #116

This week's challenge over on the Sassy Cheryl Challenge Blog was to use our favorite color combo.  Well, I had a really hard time with an exact combo and decided to use a mix of muted hues that I like.  I also stepped out of my comfort zone this week and used an apron template with this "Sassy Sally Triple Layer Cake" image.

I started by printing my Sassy Cheryl image and an apron template from Paper Smooches.
I traced the template onto designer paper from the October Afternoon "Fly a Kite" paper pad.  I machine stitched around the base and "pocket".
I added rick rack to the pocket and as the apron neckband.  I printed out a fun birthday sentiment from Sentiments 4 You blog and it's ready to mail!  I can even slide money or a gift card into the "pocket" on the front.

Thanks for stopping by to take a look.  I'm also submitting this as this week's "Show Me" challenge over on Cheryl's blog.

Cynthia, I love this card. That apron with the catherdral quilt patterned paper(my DM made a ton of quilts with this pattern) is perfect, and there's no better color combination than those in a quilt. The image couldn't be more appropriate for the card.
