CAS and Pink!

Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to visit today. The first week back at work was so busy and stressful so it was lovely to get a bit of crafty time earlier. I decided to use this gorgeous wreath digi from Lady Bug Crafts Ink. When I made this card I had two challenges in mind but now I'm not sure if it fits one of them.


The first challenge is Less is More who want us to use pink (have I got too much bling?) and the second challenge is In The Pink but I missed the bit about lots of pink space, doh! I wouldn't mind but it was written in bold letters (more than once) and highlighted too! To think they let me loose to teach the nation's children too, lol! Sorry, Christine and Sylvia, just delete me if it's too off the mark.

Is anyone going to the NEC in Birmingham next week? It'll be my first ever visit and I'm so excited. I'm taking my wishlist but nowhere near enough money to buy it all, lol! It would be lovely to meet up just to say hello. Let me know.
See you soon

It's gorgeous, Katina! A really elegant card. Hope you have a wonderful time at the NEC. I have never been, but I have been to Harrogate and Doncaster, so I am lucky really! Comfy shoes and a bag with comfy handles is good too - all those carriers threaten to cut your circulation!

What a stunning CAS card Katina. I LOVE the pearly wreath, and the design is perfect.

Oh how I wish the base card was pink, to fit in with our current challenge at ITP. There is still lots of time to enter again if you would like to do so.

This is lovely, and if you close your eyes a bit and squint it definately looks pink!

Wish I could go to the NEC, but it's a bit too far for me, maybe one day. Or you could come to the SECC next time - we have a camp bed - and the dog doesn't snore too loudly!

Hi Katina...

Wowww I love this fabulous wreath... think I may have to have that one.. and how you've coloured it... now... are you SURE it's not a very pale pink base that's showing white on the camera??? LOL!! Seems lots haven't noticed the 'pink space' bit so don't worry.

Your CAS card is gorgeous - as always... and another that's going into my inspiration folder!!
