Hip Hop with Unity


When I think of Valentine's day I don't just think of red and white I also think of pinks and teals. I mean seriously- pink and teal look so good together! I forgot how much I love that colour combo until this card started coming together! I feel like this card is very much 'Andrea-ized'. Meaning girly colours, flowers, ribbon and bling where ever I can fit it in. Do you have a style you tend to think of as 'your style' more than others? I am always curious to see what other people tend to lean towards. It inspires me!

On my card today I used one of the new Liz Hicks releases- the dinged dots background stamp. And my sentiment panel is actually from this month's Kit of the Month- those kits are chock full of awesome images and sayings. 

And as it is Thursday of course Angela has an amazing sale for you to keep in mind while you are hopping along. And don't forget to leave a comment at each stop for your chance to win some stamps!

Well that's it for me today- back into the craft studio I go! Sadly not to create- but to clean up my crafty mess hee hee! While I get to work pop on over to the Awesome-Sauce Eryn for more crafty inspiration!

Cheers! Andrea

I am so glad your card shows examples on how to 1) stamp one print on a printed paper and 2) stamp using a color other than black! I could really use some creativity in my stamping. Great job!

Love your pink & teal combo.
I'm making cards for "Cards from the Heart Card Drive" for hospitalized kids so my style here is keep it simple and happy. Nothing that can be pulled off and become a chocking hazard. No get well or feel better that would remind them they are sick.
