Color Hues: the Color Challenge Pink and Red


Well, hello and I'm back again with a new card for The Color Hues Card Challenge, this
time the colors are Pink and Red. Perfect for a Valentine card!


The Greetery's order came so quickly, I dived right in and chose the Heart Arrow
Foiling and die cut. 


For the background I used the Ribbon Maker Heart Strip Die and glued. several strips
of shimmer pink cardstock onto a shade darker pink. Then I cut it again from red to 
retrieve the heart centers and glued them within each heart.  


I was so happy to be chosen as one of the runners up for the last challenge, and
I used one of the same dies (Loopy Bow) on this card as I did on the last one.
It's such a happy bow! Hot Stuff Sentiments die was first red embossed, and
then pink glittered.


Valentines are happy cards we give to those special ones in our lives. Love the
bright kitchy feel of combining red and pink. 

Have a great week!

The Card Concept: Anchors Aweigh

 


Anchors Aweigh is the theme for the new Card Concept Challenge.


Crisp red white and blue! And a fun nautical themed card, or you could go
4th of July, or ships or beauty or stripes... oh so many options!


You see that striped pillow on the couch, 2nd from the left? That inspired my Clean and
Layered card. I pieced the background with strips of cardstock, to mimic the stripes on
the pillow.


The anchor is from PTI's Ahoy, copper embossed several times, and the circles are from
the Greetery (white) and Poppystamps (blue).


And the sweet little tag 'anchored' to the anchor is also from the Ahoy stamp set.

Don't forget to add our inspiration photo to your post to be eligible to win!
Can't wait to see what inspired you in our photo!
