Pretty in Pink

If you know me, you probably haven't seen much pink around my blog.   I never really was a 'girly girl' ... Pink was not my favorite when I was little .. I always seemed to choose blue over pink..... and now  .. Now that I have two little boys, well let's just say there is not a spec of pink to be had in this house.

Well, This week I played with Pink.  I have a lot of cute girly papers ... well, I have a lot of cute 'everything' paper ... what scrapper doesn't have a room full of paper, right?  Well I picked up this cute EK success line fairly recently thinking I would pair it with grays for a Valentines theme.  Something other than the black and white.  But when I started pulling things together I had remembered how badly (at one time) I wanted to work with the Little Scraps of Heaven Designs Tea Party Dress Up collection set.

I really had fun with it.  And as you can see there is A LOT of Pink ;)

Here is a view of the full layout

 Below are a few close up of some details

For the next picture (the invitation) I used the PNG file from the "My Cup Runneth Over" collection, manipulated the colors in my Photoshop essentials program, and came up with this cute invitation.

Here is a pull out tag tucked in.

This is what that pull out tag looks like if you pull it from it's pocket

Both mats unfold to reveal places for 5 separate pictures or journaling entries.

This cute teapot charm was a last minute add.  I came across it at the craft store today and felt is simply HAD to be added to this cute layout.
