Check out this adorable pink and blue inspiration board from Hand Stamped Sentiments. There is so much in the board photos to pick and choose to include in a hand stamped project.
First and number one I gravitated to the VW Bus and then the combo of a bright intense blue with pink. I mixed Pacific Point and Night of Navy with a blend of Polished Pink and Flirty Flamingo. Being inspired by the blue brick wall I included a panel of Basic White which I dry embossed with the Brick and Mortar 3D EF.
I used one image from three different stamp sets. The VW Bus from Driving By, the hand drawn flowers from Painted Poppies, and the "happy birthday" greeting from Sharing Sunshine. I did use two ink pads to stamp the "happy birthday" image. The top half of the stamp is inked in Pacific Point and Night of Navy on the bottom. I like doing that to give a subtle bit of visual variation.
I did grab a piece of retired Brights 6" x 6" DSP to layer behind my white focal layers. I thought this added a light hearted pop of interest. To pump up the pink end of things a bit more on this card I added In Color Jewels.
This is so cute!! What a fresh, cheerful CAS card. I like the subtle two colors on the words. Thanks for pointing that out. This is a set I've been considering getting and your card makes me want it even more now.
