Pretty in Pink

Good morning all.  Today's a new challenge at Charisma and a nice easy one it is too!  The theme this week....Your Favourite Colour Combo.


I needed a card for a wedding shower and this sweet image from Stamp Fairy was just the ticket.

I played with a pink/purple colour combo, with just a touch of turquoise.  Nice feminine colours seemed best suited to the occasion.  After colouring with my copies, I added some flowers to the umbrella, after all we don't want a rainy day!

For the sentiment, I've used a Whimsy stamp and die....adding an embossed layer of polka dots, and then a computer generated wording.

Supplies used:
Paper from Wild Rose Studio - Spring Fling
Martha Stewart punch - Edge Doily Lace
Other - ribbon bow & gem from my stash

Once again we have some wonderful sponsors:

Prize 1
