Pile It On! Challenge - Pretty in Pink

We have another fun Pile It On! Challenge starting today...the theme is:

'Pretty in Pink'

We are sponsored for this challenge by All Dressed Up

Prize - 2 Digi Stamps of the Winner's Choice!

Pink is really not my colour, but I found a snippet of very pink watercolour paper left over from making this card last year. I made it by smooshing Distress Inks (Tattered Rose, Picked Raspberry, Fired Brick & Festive Berries) on to the paper a couple of times, drying in between layers. I embossed it using a folder from Craft Asylum/Sizzix, then cut out a circle using one of my Nesties. I lightly sanded over the hearts to reveal some of the white core of the paper, and used it as a background for this cute kitty. He's by Penny Black (of course!), and is from the 'Every Which Way' set...I coloured him using watercolour pencils, then carefully cut him out. The sentiment stamp is from the 'Sending Sunshine' set by Simon Says Stamp.


Here are the challenges I've piled on:
