Passion for Pink

Hi - Jean Okimoto here - with a blingy pink Valentine idea for you.  There are so many wonderful shades of pink at Clearsnap...the XOXO Multi-Color Inkpad, Orchid Pastel Fluid Chalks and Pink Punch Designer Foils are at the top of my list this year.

Hampton Art stamps - Love Defined, Chandelier and the Studio G hearts - are stamped with Orchid Pastel and  Charcoal Fluid Chalk Inkpads and the XOXO Multi-Color Pigment Inkpad.  I like the quick-drying soft finish of the Fluid Chalk Inks for layered  backgrounds like this.  The hearts are stamped with three colors of the XOXO Inkpad, then embossed with Opalescent Clear Powder for a sparkly, shimmery finish.

XOXOXO is from the Be Mine Design Adhesives, foiled with Pink Punch.  Three gold mini-brads contrast the cool grays and silvers for the final touch.  Paper Accents Dusk is used for the card and Bazzill Basics Petunia adds a bright layer of pink.
