I am back in one piece from my skiing trip and had one of the best holidays ever - great snow, fabulous food (and drink!) and such a wonderful time with friends. It went so fast and here I am back in the usual routine.
But hey, there's nothing like a new challenge at In The Pink to cheer me up and our theme this time is...
PINK PLUS ONE
So, we want to see your creations in pink with one other colour...but don't be shy with the pink!
I totally surprised myself with my 'plus 1' choice, as my fave colours to team with pink are green or brown but today we have pink plus grey!
I intended this card to be for my sister-in-law's birthday and once I had decided on the image I wanted to use, this DP just seemed the perfect match, so the colour scheme was dictated by that.
I do find it hard to pick favourite Saturated Canary images but this is definitely one of them; I adore her big glasses, cute dress and long socks :-) I tried out a new combo for the hair too and hope you'll agree it's a winner!

I love the pink & grey combo. Obviously it's just me, but I found my eyes drawn to the pink flowers, away from the central image. Maybe they are too pink? Mum being picky-colour matching usually being just one of your many talents! Mum x
