Pink, brown and white at the Pink Elephant...

This week at The Pink Elephant we have a colour challenge and our colours are PINK - BROWN AND WHITE! A great combination.

We are being sponsored by The Greeting Farm who produce the most amazing rubber stamp designs (have you seen the oh so cute Miss Anya range?) and cool digi downloads too.

There are digi downloads on a Graduation theme for the winner of our challenge so if you haven't joined in before or haven't had time to enter for a while this would be a great week to play along with us.

Materials used:

• The Greeting Farm - Grad Anya - digital stamp
• Cardstock by Making Memories
• Cuttlebug Swiss dots folder and border bar
• Circle Nestabilities
• CD
• Sentiment and star peel offs

With love...

This is one of my favourite Pollycraft stamps (although I actually love all their designs) mainly because the little sign is blank and you get three different messages in the set to use - 'with love', 'for you' and 'thank you'. All really useful and the girl is so cute too.

Hopefully my card fits quite a few challenges as my main challenge this week has been to try and transform my jungle back into a garden! Why do shrubs take absolutely no notice of their own labels? You know the ones attached to the pots that say things like 'minature plant' '2ft x 3ft' and then a couple of years later you wonder who planted that 7 foot monstrousity in the border.

Anyway on to the challenges...

• Cute Card Thursday - Nip and punch - my hearts are punched.
• Passion for Promarkers - use apple green and pastel pink
• Cupcake Craft Challenge - fairies

Materials used:

• Promarkers
• Cuttlebug border die
• Pollycraft stamp set
• small heart punch
• green and pink card and gems from stash
  

Clevers Corners Part 2...

In my last post I mentioned that I would have liked to have added ribbon to my card, but hadn't got anywhere near the right shade. Well my blogging/forum friend Ali left me a comment suggesting staining white or light coloured ribbon with the ink pad used for the stamping.

What a brilliant idea and it works really well - thank you so much Ali for this great tip.
