Color Hues: Red and Pink


Welcome to a brand new challenge at Color Hues! With Valentine's Day just two weeks away, we have an appropriate colour pairing for you: RED and PINK. I'm a big fan of red, not such a big fan of pink, but I put them together anyway! 


I've been practicing with some of my Concord & 9th Turnabout stamps, and this stamp is an obvious one for a Valentine. Stamping it all four times, I used two shades of pink ink and two of red. I used the dies from the Everyday Bouquet Turnabout Kit for my sentiment, popping up the white square with a piece of chipboard. I'm adding this to the current Addicted to CAS challenge, Pattern. 


I guess it's not a big surprise to reveal that many of the Color Hues team took the Valentine route with their cards! We also have a new guest designer, Julie, so be sure to visit the Color Hues blog for lots of red and pink inspiration. 


Supplies: Neenah white & PTI poppy red cardstock, Concord & 9th Hugs & Kisses Turnabout stamps, Versamark, Memento angel pink, rose bud, rhubarb stalk & Catherine Pooler rockin' red ink,  Wow clear gloss embossing powder, Everyday Bouquet dies, chipboard

Love this turnabout stamp--so perfect for Valentine's Day, but I can think of all kinds of ways to use it for other occasions! Love the red borders, too.

This is so cute!! I love that fun turn about stamp and your frame around the sentiment.

The turnabout stamp was a perfect choice for this challenge, looks great. :)

What a great idea for those two colors. I like both pink and red, but struggle to put them together. Your valentine looks wonderful, and is a great way to use both of those colors.

I suppose I'm living under a rock because I've never made a turn-about card! LOL This looks great in those dual shades of pink & red and what a great Valentine it is!
