Miss Pinks Craft Spot

Welcome to this month's Color Fusers Monthly Blog Hop! This month, we are featuring Lemon Lime Twist, Balmy Blue and Gorgeous Grape - I'd totally forgotten about Lemon Lime Twist.... but the colour of this ink is my inspiration. Maybe, just a twist of Lime I thought as I looked at the new Online Exclusive Cheers & Sips....... My husband purchased a "slushy machine before summer, and it has had quite a workout over the past few months - and believe it or not these colours are just some of the flavours we have enjoyed (Fruit Tingle, Midori  Illusion and Margarita mix). To create the drink colours I applied ink to a stamping block, spritzed with water then placed the block onto cardstock. Once dry I stamped the cup outline and then die cut.

Hello crafty friends, it's been a lovely cool weekend in comparison to past weeks, and I was lucky to have the house to myself this morning and felt the need to get inky. I was sorting through my desk, and saw my Beautiful Butterflies Bundle , no need to look further, this is one of my favourite sets from the mini catalogue. The suite has gorgeous Beautiful Bokeh DSP and coordinating Itty Bitty Bokeh Mix , so me and my need for bling decided I just had to incorporate the Bokeh Mix into my slimline design.  I used a Blending Brush with Blueberry Bushel, Gorgeous Grape and Berry Burst, then splattered the card base with water - this is one of my "go to" techniques lately and works perfectly when adding lots of bling as with today's card. I die cut the butterflies from Thick Basic White cardstock and adhered, the added the Bokeh Mix for that touch of bling that I adore. Thanks for visiting today, I hope you enjoyed viewing my project. Stay tuned for more inspiration and...
