Challenge #20 - A Colour Challenge

This fortnight's challenge is an easy one - a colour challenge using the colours Real Red, Pretty in Pink, Basic Gray and Very Vanilla. The side twist is to make a Valentine's card as these colours are just perfect for this occasion.


Amy's card is gorgeous - so perfect for the man in her life! I love how she used some so-called Christmas designer paper on this card - doesn't look Christmassy at all - it's great!

Recipe:


Stamps: Loads of Love, Love You Much, Spot On wheel


Paper: Nouveau Chic & Merry Moments DSP, Basic Grey, Real Red, Pretty in Pink, Very Vanilla, Naturals Ivory


Ink: Basic Grey, SU Markers


Accessories: Circle punches, scallop circle punch, crystal effects, jumbo eyelets, versamarker, silver embossing powder, blender pen, tiny hole punch, sponge dauber


Next up is Elaine's cute heart filled card. I love the glittery one right in the centre of the row of hearts.


And the inside is just as pretty as the outside.


Recipe:


Stamps: Love You Much, Just Perfect Alphabet, Bella Toile


Paper: Basic Grey, Pretty in Pink, Real Red, Very Vanilla


Inks: Real Red, Versamark


Accessories: Heart to Heart punch, Heat & Stick powder, Fine Cosmo glitter, heat tool, 5/8" and 1/4" Real Red grosgrain ribbon, 1/2" circle punch



And finally here's mine, using that gorgeous Bride DSP again.


Recipe:


Stamps: Baroque Motifs, En Francais, Circle of Friendship, Retro Remix wheel


Papers: Basic Gray, Real Red, Very Vanilla, Bride DSP


Inks: Basic Gray, Real Red, Pretty in Pink


Accessories: Basic Gray Tafetta ribbon



Have a go at this colour challenge and leave us a link in the McKlinky box at the end. I thought I'd try a new linking system as Mr. Linky is being quite tempermental at the minute (must be a man thing!)
