Loving Red

I'm so enjoying working with red.
It's festive and wintery and I think I might turn some of these into Christmas cards!
Some garden inspiration
I'm linking up with Julia over at WOYWW

  1. Brilliant...I love the red-iness quality of the crafting this week and actually would choose that photo of the berries in the jar with the single berry below (very clever positioning!) to be my Christmas card image!! Looking forward to next week :-)

  4. Lovely red theme here! Love all those different textures, which all seem a lot more prominent as you're using a limited palette of colours. Will sure make great cards! Happy WOYWW! zsuzsa @ InkyDinkyDoodle #31

  6. I love red and white! It really is wintery and peaceful, too. I use it a lot in the wintertime in my home. These would make beautiful Christmas cards. I don't know if I could part with them though!

  9. I'm completely with you, i love red and white for Christmas - very Scandinavian. These festive collages are beautiful. I'm very envious of how you are able to compose such lovely collages. And I sense some of these buttons are vintage...a guilty pleasure of mine! Thanks for stopping by my desk and your lovely comments about my work. Happy crafting, Max #30

  15. Hi Diana, I'm loving the colour combinations you are using. The use of a single colour with white is stunning and your clever use of textural materials just makes the design perfect. Thanks for the visit to mine, have a great woyww and happy crafting, Angela x 23

  23. I agree with Jan that photo of the berries and the vase is lovely and would make a great card as it stands. Your artwork is inspirational and I can see Maxine wanting to come over and have a go - raiding my fabric scraps and button jars. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful work. x Jo

  24. Gorgeous as always, Diana! You have given us a very unusual take on red. Beautiful in all its shapes and forms!

    I didn't join in WOYWW again this week for the same reasons as last - nothing on the desk, not feeling energetic enough to do anything on the desk! Hopefully things will have improved by next Wed.

  28. Thanks for your return visit, Diana, and I'm happy to report that I'm feeling quite aa bit better today and actually managed to do the ironing for the first time in months - my cleaning lady has been doing my laundry all this time, and it's so lovely to be getting back into my normal routines again! I'm not rushing things and will just do what I feel up to. Hopefully I'll be back in the studio in a day or two, and next week I'm intending to start cooking again.

    Have a great weekend!
