osat blog hop: pretty in pink

Welcome to the July One Stamp At A Time blog hop. Our theme this month is Pretty in Pink. (And instantly the song If You Leave by OMD pops into my head. I’m going to be singing it for the rest of the day…) We are showcasing projects that feature this great color in a wide array of hues. I can’t wait to see what the design team comes up with. Who choose pastel pinks or bright pinks…anyone for neon pink?

I was in a summertime mood as I was creating, so I reached for the bold Melon Mambo for my card and bookmark duo.

I started with a bold watercolor wash of Melon Mambo on watercolor paper.

Once the panel was completely dry, I stamped a beautiful flower from Prized Peony in the corner. I masked the first one and added two more. I went in and added some more ink on the petals to deepen the color. I added some white gel pen dots to the flower centers. The card base is stamped with the All Wired Up background stamp in black ink.

For the bookmark, I started with black card stock and stamped All wired Up in white ink.

This is a great gift for someone who loves the color pink. I know just who I am going to give this to!

Be sure to check out the great “Pretty in Pink” projects from the rest of the design team!
