Pink & Turquoise for Color Hues

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

It's time for another Color Hues challenge.


This month it was my turn to choose our colors.  I chose....


I was thinking flamingos when I chose these colors.

I die cut this flamingo from watercolor paper and colored with Distress Re-inkers.

For the background, I embossed a piece of Turquoise cardstock and patted
with a white pigment ink to bring out the raised feathers.

It was really fine with that, but I added die cut palm leaves for even more
dimension.  There's more layers than I usually have, but I'm happy with it.

Now let's go and see what my talented friends and our
fantastic Guest Designer Kim Miller have done to inspire you.


I hope you'll create a card using Pink & Turquoise and add it to the gallery at


Challenge ends at 9:00 AM on June 14th.

The winners will be posted an hour before our next challenge and the overall
 winner will have the opportunity to be a future Guest Designer.

Most importantly, just have fun!

Turning the Page June 2026

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Time to turn the page on our calendars to a new month.

 

I make calendars each year for my desk and my family.

 

I thought I'd set up a regular post on the first day of each month to share them.

 

I hope you enjoy my “Turning the Page” posts.

 

Here's our June page.


 

By the way, the calendars 4 ½ x 7 inches and and can be displayed on an easel

or hung on a push pin or magnetic hook.  We all have a different way to display them.

 

If you would like a word document with the calendar, email me

and I will be glad to send it to you so you can design your own.
