Another Gray Day

Still raining and so miserably cold. Yuk! DH, however, put in a fire for me and I braved the elements to make my way to the loft where I whiled away a couple hours. Unpacked and reorganized my supplies from this weekend’s retreat and had time to make a couple cards - made sure I used scraps of gray in both.

The first also uses the pattern Elliott from Paper and Piecings, our sponsor again this week. Elliott is a die-hard fisherman - like a good many Dads I know! The gray is in the fish. The card didn’t photograph well. I had the flash off and it’s rather dark and dingy here right now. I’ll take a better picture tomorrow.

The second card I made using scraps of paper from an old calendar rescued from the trash. Particularly liked this scrap as it uses Sam’s name. (Sam is number two grandson and every bit as adorable as his older brother)  Added a couple scraps of gray so this one fits this week’s challenge as well.
