Bathtub Riley Moose in Pinks

Hi there!

I made this card for 2 challenges on Split Coast Stampers. The first, is for a color combination of light pink, medium pink, and dark pink (#CC326). The second, to use a stamp that "you had to have", but never used (F4A68).




This is a stamp called "Bathtub Riley Moose" from Hanna Stamps that I just had to have, but never used the poor little thing. It's so cute too! I WAS surprised at how few stamps I had that hadn't been used yet...from my older ones anyway.

For colors, I used pink pirouette for light pink from Stampin Up, Chablis from Bazzills for medium, and Melon Mambo (SU) for dark pink. The other papers used were Whisper White and Black from SU and Solar White from Neenah. Ink used was Versafine in Black which is a new ink I bought and I really like the image quality it gives, the quick drying time and easy cleanup. It's my new favorite ink now!

I colored the image using my Prismacolors pencils and mineral spirits and Diamond Stickles. I used Spellbinders dies in circles and scallops which I have barely used. With the round shaped image, I decided to make a card in a square shape of 5" x 5" which is different for me.

Thanks for looking!

Blessing!

  1. So cute! And More pink! You know me, never can get tired looking at PINK..smile. I wish I could say that most of my stamps have seen ink...LOL. Still working on that, there's only so many hours in a day...never enough time for card making...smile.
