365 Cards: Think Pink!

Today is my day at 365 Cards and I had such a fun time making up this card! As with my last card, I made up two for this challenge and the second was 'oh so much better' than the first. Here it is:

I figured with all that pink, I would need a little sass in it too. I love this image from Pink Paislee. I put some diamond stickles in the star patch, which is like sass in a bottle! I stamped the large circle from THIS Rubber Soul SET for the background. I started with Raspberry Fizz ink and then topped of with a few white circles. I think its so fun to go through your stamps and see which ones can be used for backgrounds. Usually you will find a few that you wouldn't have thought of originally. The sentiment is from Kim Hughes "Ahoy Matey" Set. Which is so cute too. 

So that is my pink card for today. Hope you like it! It's great fun to do a one-color card. I think I will try it now with each color I own. That would get interesting!

Thanks for stopping by today. Can't wait to see your own creations, so don't forget to link up after you get your Pink on... Good day to ya!

Take-Off Tuesday # 24

My Serena and Lily catalog showed up in the mail yesterday just in time for TOT! There are a few new things in there that I found really fun. Here is today's picture. Some really hip wood grain and great colors:

Here is my take:
It's pretty straight forward to the inspiration. I used the wood grain stamp from Cosmo Cricket and stamped repeatedly for the background.  I loved the orange in the picture, but for some reason its really freaking me out on this card, or maybe it's the blue. I just can't tell.

Thank you for all your sweet and concerning comments yesterday for my little "Motrin Drinker." He really is fine although he napped really well (long and hard!) so maybe it did affect him some. Things are much calmer today. However, Ronin (4yr old) came into our room in the middle of the night. Since he is sick we put him in a makeshift bed on the floor. At some point he spilled the cup of water from the nightstand all over himself. So needless to say, he was crabby and awake, as was I. It's raining again today which always puts a damper on my spirits. It's taken me a while to get motivated this morning, and I am not sure that I am fully functioning yet. I venture to say I will only hit 70% productivity today. But at least that gives me room for improvement tomorrow!

Thanks for visiting today. You make me smile ; )
