Pink and Red Love

I don't know why but the colour red seems to attract me lately. As you can see, this card is in red and pink, which is a little outside my comfort zone. Anyway, I had fun making this card. I spent less than 30 minutes matching the pattern papers and putting everything together.

Handmade flower embellishment

Using a pair of scissors, I cut a doily shape out of a pattern paper by Crate Paper, from the Restoration Collection. I also cut a scallop circle into hearts, and arranged them to form a flower, with a button on its centre. Hope that the flower counts as a handmade embellishment.

Sugar Love

I think I'm addicted to cardmaking, which is a good thing. Anyway, made this card today. I'm not a huge fan of the colour pink, but I love the combination of bright red, pink and white on this card. 

I used the American Crafts I Heart You Bubushka designer paper received from my friend, Dhiya last year. I almost couldn't bring myself to use the paper because it's very pretty. It has glitter all over, so it's very sparkly. Love it!

I hope you like the card as much as I do. Happy Sunday!
