Use Pink, Purple or Red

The challenge this week at Through the Purple Haze Challenges is to use Red. Pink or Purple. Challenge??? That's not a challenge! They're among my favourite colours so not a challenge at all to use. Our sponsor this week is Sassy Studio Designs and I had two lovely Sassy ladies to play with.

My first Sassy Lady is Jessica Rabbit Sassy. She struck me as such a strong, powerful woman that I decided to team her with a Tickled Pink Breast Cancer theme. 


The Background paper is a freebie from Link Up for Pink. I changed the writing colour from black to pink.
The Strong Brave and Beautiful Sentiment is a freebie from Gingers House  and I made the other sentiment myself. I cut them out on my Cougar & added a little sparkle with Sakura Tiara gel pens.



The card design is the Stepper Card from the Hougie Mini Masterpiece Project Book made on my trusty Hougie. From the side you can see the shape of it.


I coloured Jessica Rabbit Sassy  with my Promarkers


Skin - Coral, Sunkissed Pink, Blush with Pastel Pink Cheeks
Hair - Cocoa, Henna, Chestnut, Walnut
Dress - Cerise, Shocking Pink*, Maroon
Lips, Eyeshadow & a touch on the Shoes - Pink Sakura Tiara Gel Pen

I'd like to enter this to the following challenges:




Now as if Jessica Rabbit Sassy wasn't enough I was also lucky enough to have Valentine Honey to play with as well. This time I decided to go with 'Red'

This is another card design from the Hougie Mini Masterpiece Project Book  and one I've not tried before. As with all the Hougie projects it looks complicated but is actually very simple.






The front is a swirly digi paper I have - origin unknown. I mounted a Happy Birthday sticker on a piece of Tim Holtz Fragments and backed it with white and red card. The iridescent ribbon is from my stash and sticks to the back of the card, but is loose along the front so the card can open.

How effective is this fold? So simple yet looks so good!


I coloured Valentine Honey  with my Promarkers:

Skin - Coral, Sunkissed Pink, Blush with Pastel Pink Cheeks
Hair - Tulip Yellow, Sunflower, Gold, Raw Sienna
Lips - Antique Pink
Bikini & Hearts - Red, Cardinal Red. Highlights with white gel pen

I'd like to enter this into these challenges:

Crafty Catz - Not a Square - it is, but it isn't :P



I really hope you like my cards. I'm looking forward to seeing your Red, Pink or Purple entries over at Through the Purple Haze Challenges
