think pink! ♥♥♥

we're still rockin' the (gah!) PINK CHRISTMAS over at ♥jingle belles♥ and you still have loads of time to link up pink cards which will add to our donation total, so head on over there, kthx! here's my card for this week:

patterned paper: kaisercraft, my mind's eye, basic grey, doodlebug, pink paislee, dcwv and i thiiiiiiiink that's it, but the pink poinsettia layers were pre-cut from scraps, so really who knows, lol?; glittery "PEACE" cut from a my mind's eye journal card; brad: october afternoon; fawn cardstock: bazzill; ink: colorbox; adhesives: elmer's brand gluetape, 3m foam tape, sewing machine

not only do i love (GAH!) pink, i love all the different shades of pink, and i'm quite happy to mix them all in together! in this case i've added some very soft fawn mats as a neutral to tie the layers together and a teeeeeeny bit of gold glitter because glitter makes everything better, right? i've also used the current sketch saturday layout. not only does it make positioning each element a bit of a no-brainer; i would NEVER have thought of the split mat under the focal point, but i absolutely looooove it!


we're lucky enough to have some of the SOS gang with us again this week, and of course you know stephanie brings her "A" game every time* so hop over and check it out, darlings!

*i'm not sure ANY of these ladies even HAS a "B" game; nor have they ever needed one!!! ♥

  1. Gorgeous as always. Love that sketch but it will work well with scraps of favourite paper, you know the one you try to stretch. Great idea cutting the poinsettia out of patterned paper. wow I'm learning new ways to craft.
