Pink n Grey

Fabulous colour choice this week from SFTW - Pink & grey :D I actually have this on my list to do as our next colour swap on crafty cardmaking yahoo group (kinda cousin to the blog)


I'm entering this in 3 challenges


Stampin' for the weekend - Pink & grey


Whimsey Stamps - A touch of sparkle


Allsorts - Sketch and torn edges



Base card is pink followed by grey backing paper from papermania exquisite stack. Then the panels are pink (same as base) and grey (same as bg paper) which I've also torn and distressed with a grey metallic ink. Final layer of the panel is pink....starburst stains lol!
I also coloured the sticky pearls grey. Image is sugar nellie postbox coloured with promarkers and copics. The pink dots on the image are coloured with sakura stardust in pink so they're sparkly as is the letter she's holding.
Thanks for lookin!

Hi Vixykins

Lovely card - no fear of a quick "ripping session" for you!

Love the way your torn paper curls in the corners. Great touch.

Thank you for joining in the Allsorts Challenge this week.
