A Pink Birthday






I have my third card for this week's Make it Monday #71:  Bordered Sentiments.  I guess I really like this technique, and it seems like lots of others feel the same way.  This card is also for this week's CAS-ual Friday's CFC 58:  Pretty in Pink.  I started to make this card using several shades of pink, but I didn't like how it looked.  I decided to go with my darkest, brightest pink--Raspberry Fizz paper with Versacolor Opera Pink ink and paired that with Memento London Fog.









Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps:  Think Big, Dot Spot, Waltzingmouse Off Beat Patterns
Paper:  White, Raspberry Fizz
Other:  Pinking Die
Ink:  Memento London Fog, Versacolor Opera Pink


Thanks for Visiting

    Dot Spot is a great set for this technique and the Raspberry Fizz/London Fog and plaid pattern is a bright and colourful combination.

    I just love the plaid strip and the way you used Dot Spot! The gray and hot pink combo is fantastic--must remember to try that. Thanks for joining us at CAS-ual Fridays!

    I love the plaid along side of the dotted circles! I have admired that stamp set for a long time but never purchased it. You may have tipped the scales for me with this one. Great job. :)

    Joyce, you are working that masked sentiment technique! Looks great with the dot spot:) And your plaid is wonderful too! I just got those stamps but I'm looking forward to playing around with the plaids. Hope you're having a great week!
