Good morning Blogger Buddies!
We're gliding, or should I say sliding, through February and ready for the next challenge on the Double D Challenge Blog. March will soon be here and we are feeling "in the pink" that Spring is on the way. Our new challenge theme is "Pink and White"!
There's lots of inspiration on the mood board as Team Darlene hosts this challenge along with more ideas from Team Diane. Join the fun and play along for the chance to win a Creative Badge for your blog or be the random winner of this prize...
And, your mood board inspiration...
This mood board made me think "retro" with the pink, white and hint of turquoise colors. Although I have an awesome jukebox die, I decided to use one that I received recently from our wonderful leaders on the Double D Challenge Blog.
"Handmade with love"
I jumped out of my comfort zone for this card. Not my usual square shape or size with this one being 5"x 7". I used a favorite retro embossing folder, Nuevo, from Couture Creations for the white background adhered to silver and pink matting on a white card base. Aprons remind me of my grandmother...She always wore one when she was doing something in the kitchen. The silver rolling pin, spoon and button accents along with the "Blue Ribbon" really pop against the white apron. The Handmade with love made a perfect sentiment for this card.

Fabulous and pretty in pink n white.xx
Fabulous card and perfect in every way....I don't have this die myself and think I need it lol as you have me wanting to make aprons!! Love it!!!
WOW! You did a beautiful job with this die set! Looks so cool! What fun ... glad you are enjoying your prize! Have a great day!
Oh that's such a Nana Thing....aprons, love that memory! This is really sweet, that die looks amazing! Definitely a retro vibe. I can't wait til Penny shows an interest in cooking and baking, we shall have matching aprons! :) Great card, love the size too!
I love this die! I've had great fun with it. Gosh, Vicki, you did an amazing job matching up with the mood board. I never would have thought of this. Your card is so cute!!
Just too cute. I love all the little details. I have a bunch of aprons and forget to put one on before I start baking or cooking. I often have to change clothes after cooking, and I say to myself usually out loud "didn't you put on an apron? Funny that you mentioned the square cards. I have your Christmas card and birthday Card on display(both square) and they are so pretty that I decided to make a square card which is very rare for me. You always add such amazing details so mine is not nearly as great as yours always are.
Great design, the apron with its pocket is really a catch-eyes and love the embellishments and the sentiment! A clean look, but full of lovely details!
This larger size card really gave you room to create with these dies. You stuck to the retro and pink and white and I am not sure, but you maybe the only one.
Such a sweet card, Vicki! Love the rolling pin and spoon in the pocket and the coordinating sentiment! Perfect! So happy you linked up to the Time Out Retro challenge where I'm guest designing this week!
Great take on the challenge vicki, I love the retro feel of the card.The apron is so cute and all the details make it so pretty.
Wow, you totally nailed the retro theme!! This is fantastic and the shade of pink couldn't be more perfect. Love the apron die and your details with the phone and ribbon are gorgeous. I'm so very glad you shared this with us at TIME OUT!
What a fun pink and white card! The apron and utensils are great for someone who loves to spend time in the kitchen :)
Wonderful use of dies! I really love all the small details you added to this and yet your card has a clean look. Great work! Thanks for joining us at TIME OUT!
Well how stinkin' cute is this. I love the vintage look, what an adorable card. Great take on the Mood Board, my dear!!!
Super cute card. Thanks for joining us at Scrapy Land Challenge #108.
