I am Sarah, a stay at home mom of two wonderful, little boys. In my life before kids I was a fifth grade teacher. I now work with first year teachers, which I love. Creating is one of the ways I stay sane. I become very cranky if I have not stamped or scrapped in a while. Join me on this creative journey.

The Pink Elephant Color Challenge

The challenge over at The Pink Elephant was to create something with the colors pink, white and brown. I found this layout in Paper Creations magazine. Whenever I read a crafting magazine I always put a sticky on layouts or colors or just cards that I like. I used Whisper White for the base and layered it with Pink Pirouette which I put through my Big Shot to get some texture. I used retired SU designer paper and then stamped the Just a Note in Close to Cocoa. All supplies are SU. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by.

Such a pretty color combo--I love what you did with it, especially that gorgeous ribbon!

What a good idea using the stickies in magazines - I always read them and then forget what I was planning to make.
Love your card - thanks for sharing it with us at The Pink Elephant this week.

I love the punch you used with that border. Very sweet, elegant card. I always go through & mark the cards I love in card magazines, too :) Thanks for creating & sharing with us at TPE.
