Meljen's Designs - Pink and Red color challenge

It's been a crazy couple of weeks and with this cold weather I feel like curling up and hibernating. Or eating some chocolate. Or both....

To help break myself out of the winter blues, I decided to make a funny card which I can use to cheer up a friend too. I followed the Meljen's Designs challenge for the week which is a color challenge of pink and red. I also used one of the newly released Meljen's Designs images and broke in to some DP that I have been hoarding. I love this pretty, glittery paper from Stampin' Up. I guess it doesn't make sense to buy it and not use it. Right? Right? (I need some positive re-inforcement here.)

All right, I know you are saying "get on with it already".... So here is my sassy card.




Ready to see the inside? Wait for it.....




Okay, what do you think? Did you at least crack a smile? If so, mission accomplished.
Here is a peek at the entire new release. Think of all the cute Valentine's day cards you could make with these.

Thank you for stopping by! Be sure to join the Meljen's Designs Pink & Red color challenge. We want to see what you can create with this color combo. Remember you don't have to use a Meljen's image, although we love it if you do.

Supplies:
  • Images: Little Brassiere from Meljens Designs (on Whimsy Stamps)
  • Papers & CS: PaperTrey white CS, Georgia Pacific CS, Stampin' Up Real Red CS & Sending Love DP
  • Inks: None
  • Tools: Big Shot, Spellbinders Nestabilities, Copic Markers
  • Embellishments: Paper Studio pearls, Studio G red glitter glue, misc. ribbon
  • Other: Computer generated sentiment
