Ooo - Ooo - Ooo - I must say I was tickled pink when I saw the challenge over at The Paper Players today. I have been waiting for a pink challenge so I could pull out the "lip stick" for this stamp. Allison is the one who wanted this stamp - but we share. The colour challenge at Paper Players is - Pretty in Pink, Rose Red and Regal Rose.
I used my craft inks for the lips and then covered them with clear embossing powder so they would shine. I am loving the font for the "Hand-Penned Holiday" stamps which are coming up in the Holiday Mini.
I must say that this card is a duplicate of THIS ONE I created with the butterflies.
I spent yesterday afternoon re-creating the paper flowers from the July Stampin'Success front cover...I added a few extra colours of my own - I have to "copy" first sometimes before the creative juices start to flow... I think I will get some floral stems because then they'll bend - these guys are pretty stiff right now ( I used skewers which I sponged with Lucky Limade). I had fun making them!
Thanks for taking time to stop by for a visit. Have a great day!
