it's Pink Elephant day!!!I so missed blogging and looking at the amazing creations that we have entered at the Pink Elephant while I was away last week. I was in York and had a lovely stay, but it was really tough leaving all that fabulous new birthday craft stuff behind.
This week, at TPE, is our colour themed challenge. I always find this one a toughie, but I'm sure everyone will come up with some amazing creations. The colours this time are mid blue, dark blue and red - so we're going bold, bright and beautiful - well hopefully we are.
I used one of my favourite layouts and one that I have used with this set of MFT stamps before. I really wanted to see how the design worked in a different colour combination.
My original pink and brown version is here - I'm not sure which I like best, but I do like the Promarker colouring on the latest one. I can't seem to stop using those pens now I've finally got the hang of them.
My Favourite Things stamps are just wonderful - I love their images and really must treat myself to another set sometime soon. The sentiments that come with each set are just amazing. On this card I've used 'Rain or shine' stamped on the front and inside I've stamped 'I'll be your umbrella'. How cool is that? The umbrella is part of the set too.
So get out your red and blue papers everyone and join in the fun at the Pink Elephant - we would love to see your designs in this colour scheme.

Oh Ann. I love this card. I loved your pink and brown one too, difficult choice, they are both just so pretty. Using the bold colours like you have proves I think how versatile these stamps can be. Never used these stamps before but have seen them around been used in the crafty world, maybe one day will have a go with them.

Fantastic card Ann!! You definitely have the hang of those markers!! I am trying to learn how to use my Copics and it is slow going!! Takes lots of patience.
Welcome back...glad you enjoyed your vacation.
Wow! What a lovely card. I love the colors and your choice of using the boots for embellies. And then the inside; everything is perfect!
