Today’s card share is a card I made in response to today’s Splitcoaststampers’ Pretty In Pink, Free For All Challenge, F4A. The challenge is to make a card with pink in it. Pretty easy, right? I made this Pretty In Pink card as my submission for the the challenge.
UPDATE: Congratulations! In the General Stamping forum, you’re in the FAVORITES for the week ending February 14. (From Splitcoaststampers).
To create the card, I used a Stampin’ Up! Pink Pirouette card base, covered with a piece of Whisper White card stock. I then added a small piece of Pink Pirouette card stock upon which I added the Whisper White die cut. The die that I used for the die cut is from the Spellbinders A 2 Filigree Delight Dies.
You will note that there is another Whisper White die cut behind the sentiment that a Pink Pirouette ribbon weaves through. This die cut is the same as the main one; however, I cut it into two pieces, cutting each piece to fit, and reversed them when adhering to the card (the top and bottom of the die cut are touching each other in the center of the card).
I added the sentiment from the retired Stampin’ Up! Field Flowers stamp set, “My Thoughts Are Happiest When You’re In Them.” I think that sentiment is a very positive one and I love using it when I make cards for my children and grandchildren. I placed the sentiment, created with VersaMark Ink and White Embossing Powder, onto a Pink Pirouette die cut. This die is from the same Spellbinders Die set.
For embellishments, I die cut an oval from the Stampin’ Up! Pink Pirouette Glimmer Paper and placed it over the oval portion of the main die cut. I added several Swarovski Pink Crystals and two Stampin’ Up! Basic Pearls to give the card some bling.
Enjoy and thanks for stopping by. You may leave a comment in the comments section. Comments are greatly appreciated!
