Think Pink

Happy hump day! Hope your week is going smoothly. Today is supposed to be the first of many HOT days ahead...hoping the weather forecasters are wrong, but then again, it is almost July. Can you believe it?!

Today's card is for CAS-ual Fridays 58--Pretty in Pink. I used my new die from Simon Says Stamp (designed by Kristina Werner--love her!) & played with some color blocking, using 4 varying shades of pink. I love how it turned out!

And while we're on the subject of love, can I just say how much I love Simon Says Stamp? I placed my first order on Thursday, & it was here by Monday! Woohoo for fast service!

Have a great day!

Stamps: Birthday Basics (PTI)
Paper: Sweet Blush, Raspberry Fizz, white (PTI), Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose (SU)

Those dies are in my wish list, and my enabler pal who wants to split the shipping charges just said yes... so thanks for the nudge, nudge... fabulous card.
