This sweet card reminded my husband of little children and yes, it is all soft pinks, white, yellow and a touch of baby blue. In his honor I would like to ask you like we did as children.... "Do you want to play with me?".
If you do, please email me, my email is in the right column. I will send you a packet of my play things for you to create. All you need to do is to email a photo of the finished piece back to me and I will put every bodies in one post with your blog links. I cant wait to see what everyone comes up with. I have about 10 packs of basically the same things, to include German scrap, vintage music paper, shiny paper, buttons, ribbons, appliques, sequins and other goodies, as seen below. I am shamelessly borrowing this idea from Trisha Too at easily amused hard to offend, who did "what would you make with my stuff" Thank you Trisha.
To make today's card, I built up the blue tickets with paint, stamps, silver Stickles, a punched music paper heart, paper flowers and heart buttons. This was layered on pink and silver lace. The lace was over a striped card with a watercolored center. To finish it off, everything was edged with a big fat silver pen.
Hope you will have fun this week and play!
take care, gerri

I've always liked pinks and blues together. I like how you incorporated the tickets. Fun! Take care that your gaters don't get too chummy. =)
ReplyDeleteGerri, I just love the way you altered the group of tickets - the glitter and text just transform them into something wonderful! The card is lovely. Happy Valentines Day and Happy Pink Saturday. ~Marti
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday Gerri
ReplyDeleteYour creation reminds me of sweets (do you say candy?) with the pretty pastel colours.
I am using Google Chrome so unable to access my AOL e-mail at present. I would love to come play but imagine you will already have 10 names. Certainly would be such fun.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Wishes
