Time for a new color duo at Dynamic Duos! The color duo this week is Pink Pirouette & Baja Breeze. I have to admit, I am not a pastel kind of girl! I tend to go with either bold colors or earthy tones. After having three boys…..there is also not much pink in this house! So, this color duo was truly a challenge for me. For starters, I had to find something that was pink! Fortunately my scrap pile saved me with a pink sheet of cardstock. I am clueless as to where it came from or who made it…all I can tell you…is it is pink! No excuses for not joining in the challenge….if I can pull it off, I know you can too!
The pastel colors automatically made me think of something with a baby theme. I came up with an assortment of baby stamps to create my card. Supplies by Close To My Heart, except where noted:
B1096 Baby Acessories-Retired
Welcome Baby Stamp-SU
1385 White Daisy Cardstock
X5917 Sky Cardstock
Pink Cardstock-Unknown
Z891 VersaMark Ink
Z673 White Embossing Powder
Z2194 Sky Ink
Ribbon-Pebbles
Button-Provocraft
Dots Embossing Folder-Provocraft
