Bloom

For someone who's more into the masculine style and isn't exactly wild about pink, I sure have made a lot of pink and girly cards lately...
I got some new paper pads with these gorgeous pink papers, and for this card I've used 2 DPs from Carta Bella's "Paris girl" collection.
I've used no stamps for this card, just a vintage photo, flowers from Hunkydory Crafts which I decorated with pearls from my stash, and a die cut birthday greeting.

I'd like to enter my card in these challenges:
1) Inkspirational - #57 Bloom
2) 4 Crafty Chicks - #195 No Stamping zone
3) A Creative Romance - Girly Creations
4) Crafter's Cafe - #64 Girly
5) Just Us Girls - #242 Photo Inspiration

    Wow, this is Soooo pretty Pia! Such a beautiful image and those flowers are gorgeous! I love pink but I find it very difficult to match up the right tones so I usually avoid it! Your pinks match beautifully! :) xxxx

    I think the chevron paper is a little unexpected with a vintage print, and it looks great. Beautiful pink blooms - love the pearl centres.

    The cheeks on her are just wonderful! I'm not a fan of pink of foo foo either, but you've eased my dislike greatly. Amazingly pinks make fabulous cards, but I mostly think it's your talent and great eye for design.
