I made this card for the Dynamic Duos #87 which is to use hot pink & black. I made this card entirely from scraps in my bin after I started rooting for some hot pink colors. The papers are from PTI, while the white is a pearl card stock I've had for a long time. The heart was done with a Sizzlet (click to enlarge for embossing details) in white, pink and black, and I hand-cut the 2 smaller hearts for layering. The word "love" was done with a Quickutz die. I liked this color combination enough to make a 2nd card....
With all the snippets I used here, I'm also taking these cards over to the Snippet Playground #109 - and this time I made it before the gates closed!!
Have yourself a great Monday and stay warm!!

These are 2 great cards. Now I love #1's bright sizzle, but I'm really liking #2 for the way you distressed the rectangle edge and your hearts with the bright flower topper. Brillant. TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteSuper cards, Carol. I love the embossed hearts on the first card...so pretty. I also like how you used the crimper and sanded on the second one. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are nicely done. love the way you used your colors.
ReplyDeleteI love the combination of hot pink and black and I love your cards! Two very striking cards for sure. Such fun, and yes I think they'll let you into the snippet playground on time.
ReplyDeleteLove both your cards, Carol, beautiful colour combo,

2 super duper cards here. Love the bright pink on the first. Gonna Have to fight Miss for this.
ReplyDeleteThen I got to the second one and I relinquished the first card!! This is my cup of tea. Hugs Mrs A.
p.s. Where do I get me paws on a crimper?
I, too, love black and pink. These are two very nice cards, Carol. I like them both so much that I've made a mental note to CASE both of them. Let's hop my memory serves me good. LOL Stay indoors and warm.
ReplyDeleteWay to go with both of these challenges, Carol...Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteOy, the last thing I need is another heart, but that sure is a cute die, Carol! I love that color combo, too. Love both of your cards!! And, hey look, didn't I just say recently that crimpers would be making a comb back? That's like a comb over, only longer. See you behind the bike shed and don't forget your money this time!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteTwo gorgeous beauties!!! I love that color combo and you've done it to perfection! So lovely.

Two stunners Carol! LOVE the hot pink and black and I'd fight Mrs A for either of them :)
ReplyDeleteSo funny, I was looking at my crimper the other day wondering whether I'd ever use it again :) And what's this about money behind the bike sheds and Darnell?!!
Hugs, Di xx
