Pink, Be Gone!

One of the items on my list of things to do this weekend is to disappear another 6x6 pad of paper, hopefully one with a lot of pink in it. So this afternoon I pulled out a few packs of paper and a few sketches, and I made ... four cards. Yes, just four. But the weekend is long and I still have time!

Here's what I made:

I followed this sketch from Skipping Stones Design:

Here's another one with different papers:

I used some of my growing collection of enamel dots from MME. *ahem* The first card has putty-colored dots and this one has some rosy pink ones. I like that they are pretty flat.  Also, I used cut-offs from the papers for the sentiments; with the off-white heart it needed some color. I made two of this version.

Speaking of paper cut-offs, I did some color blocking with some of the other strips, cut it out with a Nestabilities die, and made this:

Centering the die-cut piece wasn't possible unless I trimmed off a bit of the edge, so this is a little less than 4.25 tall.

Hopefully I'll make a bigger dent in that paper over the next few days.

Thanks for stopping by!
