One more Pink Card!

 One more card for the Jingle Belles Rock Pink Christmas! Each October, the first challenge for this awesome challenge blog is for pink Christmas cards! In honor of October being Breast Cancer Awareness month both of the blog owners (Stephanie and Lauren) each donate $2 per card posted for the challenge! This one happens to be my third!

I just love this giant (or Colossal) snowflake from Unity Stamp Co! It does come with a matching die, which I did use on the last two cards, but this one was just stamped and embossed! I started with a white cardbase, to which I added a black background. The colored panel was ink blended with a few colors of distress inks (worn lipstick, spun sugar, tea dye and antique linen). I sprinkled some water on to create the white spots. I stamped the snowflake image with some embossing distress ink then sprinkled some embossing glitter on to that. After melting, I die cut the panel with the scallops and rectangle nesting dies. To that I added some natural twine, some white iridescent sequins and the sentiment was cut and added like a tag!

Not sure if there will be any more but you just never know! Three is a nice number!! 

Pink Christmas!

 Jingle Belles Rock designates the first challenge of October to be PINK CHRISTMAS! In honor or Breast Cancer Awareness month, the creators of the blog (Stephanie and Lauren) will each donate $2 per card to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation! While I do try to post cards to their challenges, October's Pink cards are a definite! 

Started with a white cardbase which was dry embossed with a plaid spellbinders embossing folder.  To that, I added a stamped and die cut Colossal Snowflake from Unity Stamp Co. Stamped in gina k designs premium dye ink in Dusty Rose.  The sentiment is also from Unity Stamp Co. called Heart of Christmas and has a coordinating die set. I stamped in black and then embossed with nuvo embossing powder in gold enchantment. Added the sentiment to the snowflake and then popped it all up with foam adhesive!

Another for the challenge and for the Christmas card stash!

Going Pink for October!

 Hello and welcome! I have participated in the Jingle Belles going pink for Christmas for a few years! I have been a little lax in posting cards here but always know that the first challenge in October is PINK for Breast Cancer Awareness! The blog creators (Stephanie and Lauren) each graciously donate $2 per card to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation!

Today's card features a lovely Pink snowflake! The snowflake and sentiment are both from Unity Stamp Co. Colossal Snowflake and Greetings of the Season. Started with a white card base, added a snowflake embossed panel that was inked over with some pink ink then splattered with some shimmer watercolors. The plaid panel is from Cottage Christmas by Fancy Pants Designs. Twine is from Timeless Twine by BellaCreationz. You can't really tell but the snowflake was embossed with some embossing glitter, but it didn't really stick everywhere so it's VERY subtle! LOL

Hoping to make more pink, but if not one is better than none! :)
