New Challenge at The Card Concept

It's time for another fun new challenge over at The Card Concept and we hope that you'll join us.  There's a pretty inspiration photo to help you get your creativity kicked into gear.  When I saw it, I decided that I wanted to make a softly colored pastel card with hearts and shades of pink.  I'm not a big fan of using gold, so I decided to go with kraft for the brown.

I used a kraft card for the base of my card and layered it with pink cardstock and kraft paper.  I stamped the Bingo card using the new Bingo Card Stamp from Creative Worship.  I absolutely love this sweet new stamp and I've been using it a lot.  It's the Stamp of the Month right now, and a great time to get one for yourself.

I used a LOVE die-cut from Pretty Pink Posh and cut the word three times in different shades of pink.  I love the combination of the pink and kraft.  I tied my bow using Pink Gingham Ribbons and I topped the bow with an older Tim Holtz metal charm that's hanging from a pear-shaped rusty paper clip.

Can you see my inspiration now?  Instead of gold or brown, I used kraft paper and metals.  It's a very simple layered card, but it was fun to make.  You can create anything Valentines or whatever this photo inspires you to make.  We always look forward to seeing where your creativity will take you, and we really hope you'll come play along at The Card Concept this month.

Thanks so much for stopping by again today.  It's always a treat to have you visit me and leave some love.  I look forward to seeing your cards and creations, too.  Stay crafty this week, and have a wonderful week, my dear friends.

Blessings,

Karen
