This week at the ColourQ, they challenged us to use the colours Pretty in Pink, Going Gray, Melon Mambo and Pumpkin Pie. These colours go so well with each other! How do I know? Because almost all of them are found in the designers series paper "Flirtatious"! It's one of my favs, not only because of the copious amounts of pink involved, but also because of the two fantastic sheets of laser-cut doily sheets included (in both Melon Mambo and Pumpkin Pie).
Instead of using the sheet as a layer, I simply cut out one of the doilies and used it behind the rosette as an extra little splash of something special ;)
Btw, I'm resisting the urge to quote all my favourite lines from Legally Blonde.

The flirtatious suite is perfect for those projects where you really want to have an overtly feminine feel to it, but it also includes some more subtle papers that are perfect for baby girl projects or Mother's Day!
Materials for this card:
Cardstock: Pretty in Pink, Whisper White, Basic Gray
Paper: Flirtatious DSP
Stamps: Short & Sweet, Mixed Bunch (centre of rosette)
Inks: Basic Gray
Embellishments: Rhinestones
Tools: 3/16" Corner rounder, Decorative label punch, 3/4" circle punch
It's been a cold day here (at least compared to the kind of weather we've been having lately), and I'm about to curl up on the couch with a blanket and read a good book watch some Seinfeld ;)
Until next time - Happy stamping! :)
P.S. Christmas is over, but the gift giving isn't! Head on over to my Facebook page and become a fan ("like" the page). Once we hit 50 fans, I'll be doing a draw and the winner will be getting something special from me!
