Welcome to August! The Color Hues team is back with another fabulous challenge. Carol is our hostess and she's asking for Pink and Grey as our hues this fortnight. I am not a huge fan of pink but I do love this particular color combo!
I borrowed this fabulous hiking boot set from a friend quite awhile ago but am happy I saved it back. I think the sentiment and those fabulous bright pink boots are a perfect combination! I used Distress Oxides to color the white die cuts...two shades of pink and one shade of grey. (I left the boot strings white.) I heat embossed the double sentiment in white onto grey cardstock, masked off the greetings and then stamped over the entire panel using a crinkle stamp and Versamark ink. The boots are popped up with foam tape and the panel was then adhered to a pink card base.

ReplyDeleteThose boots were made for walking Jules, they're FAB! Which girlie girl wouldn't love a pair like that! :)
ReplyDeletePink hiking boots--how cool is that?!? They certainly would have cheered me up when we were doing serious mountain hiking. Love the background, and the sentiment is justs perfect!
ReplyDeleteDespite not being a fan of pink, you've created a most wonderful pair of bright pink hiking books that certainly look ready for adventure. The 'rocky' background and sentiment: perfect! Thank you for making this combination shine!
