Showcase Pink

Today is the day after the 28th and I am posting my card for our Challenge Your Stash group on SCS.  This is our 46th month of de-stashing-we are coming to the end of 4th year of our challenges.  

The premise is to create a card or something else that uses only items that are in your own stamp room--nothing new is to be purchased.  The hostess each month posts their challenge to the group. Each person in the group creates their card with their own image, their own papers, their own embellishments with their own supplies--using up items from their own stash!  The card can be for any occasion and each person is encouraged to send the card on its way to someone so it can be admired.  It is a way for us to step out of the box a bit and create something that follows a challenge--isn't that what a challenge is supposed to be.  And--no money is spent as all items are to be already available in each of own stamping spaces.

Vickie posted our October challenge--October is the month when pink is seen everywhere. From sports teams to people in the community, thousands participate in National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Challenge is to use the color PINK on your creation.

I picked a Gina K Designs stencil called Floral and used my Taylored Expressions blender brushes along with Lime Zest and Lollipop inks to colored the sweet image.  I picked a sentiment from the Gina K Designs Thank You Friend stamp set.  I added some Gina K Designs Angel Aura Rhinestones as an embellishment.  I love the sparkle of these!

If you check some of the blogs on my sidebar, you may find others who have posted their cards in the next few days. There may be more posted in the thread on SCS, so you might want to check out the link here.  We also have a keyword for the SCS Gallery--it is CYSOCT.  You might see many cards there is you do a search.  They probably will be posted today or in the next few days.

I hope you enjoyed my card and I know I am excited to check out what my other hoarders, I mean stash reducers have made!  Thanks for stopping by today!  For November, Pansy is up.  Be sure to check back to see what we create!
