I &hearts; pink & aqua....

....they are some of my very favorite colors! I have a few cards to share with you today that use these colors. So, let's get started.

This first card is for Challenge 13 at the Everything But The Kitchen Sink blog. And it has pink & aqua mixed with kraft....an even better color combo! Yum!

"Live & Love" supplies:

Cardstock: Bazzill Basics

Paper: K & Company

Stamps/Ribbon: Renaissance by Design (Darling Damask & Simply Sentiments sets)

Ink: Clearsnap (Pigment: mint, chestnut)

Jewels: Doodlebug Designs

Flowers: Zva Creative & craft supply

Instructions: Fold kraft paper in half to make card base, and round the bottom corners. Round the bottom corners of a pink heart paper block, and adhere to the bottom of the card. Punch a scalloped border to aqua striped paper, and adhere to the top of the pink heart paper. Stamp the damask pattern and the sentiment to a white cardstock block. Round the top corners and adhere to the front of the card. Tie ribbon around the seam, and top with 3 paper flowers. Accent the top of the card with three pink jewels.

This next one is based on the Sunday Sketch at 365 cards, and on challenge 25 at the Play Date Cafe (use black & white with a splash of color). I love how this one turned out with just the little splash of aqua in places!
