Hi lovely peeps - here is a card which makes me think of Summer days - none of the white fluffy stuff here!
It's time to join us at the In The Pink Challenge again, and we would like to see
DISTRESSING (and LOTS of pink)!
This could be Distress Inks, torn edges, sanding etc. If you are using Distress Inks, please tell us which colours you have used.

I have used a beautiful Mo Manning Cling Stamp from Penny Black - part of my wonderful candy from Debby in her "Favourite 5 Cards of 2012" challenge.
The spotty paper is from a MME paper pad - The Sweetest Thing - also part
of my candy prize. (Thanks Debby)!

Edges of oval die-cut inked with Victorian Velvet and an Inkssentials Applicator.

Beautifully distressed Sylvia, I love the sanded coredination card and the way you have distressed all the elements without grunging it up but keeping a vey fresh and vibrant feel to the whole card. Love it.

It's beautiful Sylvia. Love the distressed look and your image is coloured perfectly. I've never had any luck trying to colour with distress inks.

Another fabulous card as always, Sylvia. The machine stitching on the card is really effective. See you soon. Rachel.
Yummy card Sylvia!
Hi Sylvia ! Love your gorgeous distressed pink creation. I love your layers, the little die cut with the sentiment. Your colouring with Distress Inks is fabulous. Wonderful theme for 'In the Pink'!
I have so many mediums to work with and love them all, some more than others, but if I was allowed only one it would be Distress Inks. You can do so much with them and there is such a great range of colours now. Have a fabulous day, Shirleyxx
Fabulous colouration of this adorable image Sylvia, she makes me smile just looking at her as she looks so happy. Love your papers and design with your distressing and stitched detail.
Hugs,

Hi Sylvia
Your card is beautiful... I love the way you have distressed it by sanding the core'dinations... really gives it a chic aged look... and your colouring with DI's is superb.. I haven't tried yet.. I really need to get myself into gear and give it a go as the inks are sitting waiting!
Big hugs

Hi Sylvia, Love the card, what amazing colouring. I am not very good with Distressed inks, I think I need to practice lots :0
I love the distressing too.
