Thanks Karen for a fun challenge. Gingham is like dotted swiss or chocolate. Never too much and always in style.

[Golda]

What fun cards!  This will definitely be a challenge, as I rarely use gingham.

Fun challenge! I love gingham. I've been hoarding gingham so I should be able to do something.

Gorgeous cards Karen. I've never been a gingham fan so this challenge will not be that easy for me.
