Hi everyone and welcome back to another challenge at the Simply Create Too Blog. This topic is "Pink and Red Only". Well, that was a tough one for me because I don't really like pink. But I started off blending Picked Raspberry and Abandoned Coral Distress Inks together using an ink blending tool. I also spritzed it with a little bit of water with Perfect Pearls "Pearl" mixed into it and dabbed it off after a few seconds. And I have to say I am really pleased with the outcome. On top of the distressed background I stamped the "you're amazing" sentiment from My Favorite Things with VersaMark and embossed it with Metallic Gold Rich embossing powder from WOW.

I also wante to include a critter and decided to go for the cute snail from Create A Smile. I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on white cardstock and colored it in with Spectrum Noir (EB2, GB8, GB10) and Copic (R24, R29, R39) markers. I also colored in the little heart of the snail's shell with a gold gel pen and applied a bit of Glossy Accents on top.
To assemble my card I die cut the distressed panel with a stitched rectangle die from Avery Elle and adhered it to a standard white notecard. I also adhered the little snail to the bottom right corner using foam tape.
I hope you liked my card and I'd be happy to see your creations on the blog.
Beautiful ink blending - absolutely gorgeous colours and that snail - how sweet is he?? Lovely job! xx
