In the Pink

I'm sure my friend Summer at www.rosesonpaper.com thinks I just collect all my Magnolia stamps without actually using them.

Well Summer, here's some more proof that they do infact get used.

Annie-May's first ballet concert was the perfect opportunity to use this little pink lady.

A very simple card, coloured with Copic markers, some decorative scalloped layers and a pretty ribbon, pink of course and I have a congratulatory (is that even a word) card for my pretty ballerina. Not one of my best efforts, but under the rushed conditions of additional ballet dress rehersals it did the job.

While we're on the subject of pink and ballet I was thrilled with the challenge given at Splitcoast a couple of weeks ago. In honour of Breast Cancer Awareness month of October, a cause that is very important to me, the challange was to make a pink card, which we all know is my favourite colour, and, this is the great bit, colour it with H20's - yippeeeee - my favouritest (is this also a word - hmmmm) colouring medium of all time.

As we were in the ballet mood here I thought this image, from Alota Rubber Stamps was just perfect. I didn't have a stamp with a verse on it, so I computer generated one.
