At first, the colors were daunting to me, as I usually work in warm, rich, bright colors. But something inside just clicked as I began gathering potential embellishments. The peach and grayish seafoam with gold turned out to be really lovely and fun, and I found myself with so many ideas.
The name tag will be placed into a plastic sleeve to clip on ourselves when we arrive, so I dispensed with trim on the outer edges. Looking at it now, it may be a bit thick with the cameo on it. But I trust it will all work out. AND, all I did was tack things on (no embroidery) so it went fast. Yes, I admit I am lazy sometimes. :-)
Will post again next weekend, as I am off to visit Gerry in Spokane next week!
What a nice idea with the name tags.Sometimes it's good to work in colour we are not used to working with.Mine colour aversion is blue, so this week I am going to make something in blue!Just to shake me up!!
