Winter Colors 5



In the week approaching Valentines Day, card stores and candy aisles everywhere trumpet an aggressively primary red. I have been seduced by Paper Source once again, though, to craft greetings to friends this week using an alternative -- a color hailed as rhubarb. Tasty option, I think, partial as I happen to be to strawberry and rhubarb pie.

a much more pleasant color! Not so glaringly red, nor Pepto-y pink.

Thanks for the vote of confidence! On the other hand, which of us ever looks a gift valentine in the mouth, red or no red?
