Hello, Pink Ladies (and gents)!
Today we're channeling our inner Grease for a little Club fun! My
challenge is inspired by one of the features found in our Jan/Feb
2012 issue of Creating Keepsakes -"Pink:
It's Not Just for Little Girls." In that feature, we shared ways to use this,
my favorite color, in so many ways that reach beyond little girl layouts. And
today I have one more. It's an excellent color to use for Valentine's Day
decor!
Your Challenge
Use a few pink supplies from your stash to create a little
Valentine's Day happiness in your home. You can create a banner, a layout, a
card, or whatever else strikes your fancy.
Here's how my banner came together:
1. Free-hand cut several hearts from pink and red paper
(Doodlebug Design)
2. Stitch them together using a sewing machine
3. Added a little crepe paper (Melissa Frances) and embellishments (The Paper Company) for texture
4. Attach the hearts to baker's twine (Doodlebug Design) using bitty clothespins (Pebbles Inc.) for a quick and cute banner
What will you do? A banner like mine? Something else entirely? I
can't wait to see.
Happy crafting, my pink-lovin' pals!
