Longing....

Here's an awesome image from Sweet Pea artist Rebecca Sinz called Longing (plate # 224). Isn't she beautiful?  I decided to color up this card using a dual tone combination of pinks and white.  I think the card turned out just lovely with those colors.
Be sure and check out the coloring that Rebecca Sinz used in her original.  She did very similar pink on the dress, but used colors on the background.  Those gorgeous corner die cuts are from Memory Box and add a lot of flair but at the same time also fade into the background allowing the stamped image to pop right off the card.

Hope this card inspired you to try a simple two-tone card using white and pink.  Sweet Pea stamps has so many gorgeous images that would work great with this technique.

Cheers, Holley
