In the pink challenge 122

Here's another card made with my new Unity stamps from my grab bag I received from them. I just love this image. When I checked on the "in the pink" challenge this week, I found it to be one for specal ocassions. Well, every day is worthy of celebrating for some great thing that happened, so don't overlook the blessings tucked into each day. And I can think of no better way to celebrate an event but in pink sneakers. I used these perfectly wonderful scraps from my fabulous pink scrap bag, and added the gems just for the extra bling for celebration. The image is actually stamped onto a piece of design paper that I went back and colored the white parts with a white galaxy pen. I even colored over the leaves so that the green marker would not be a distorted colored because of the paper. Hope you find the special ocassion of this day for yourself!! Just being YOU is worth the celebration.

In the pink challenge and Mod Squad Challenge

There is nothing more fun than using some new tools and finding an exciting challenge that motivates some ideas. I made this card for the Mod Squad challenge   to make a birthday card. I also am  trying a new challenge blog that I have not done before: In the pink  and the challenge was to use embossing and of course lots of pink.  

For the embossing, I inked the embossing folder with my lipstick pink oxice distress ink and then sent it through my Cuttlebug. I stamped my Unity stamp and colored the birthday girl with copic markers and paper pieced her outfit. I fussy cut it out, then made a birthday tag to add. I mounted it on pink paper as the card base.
