Get out your pink and orange supplies and get creative! This is our first challenge to celebrate our birthday month at Pink Persimmon (we are one year old!).
June 1st thru June 12th
Create a card, layout, home decor, or any type of art, as long as it uses the colors Pink and Orange (Persimmon).
Winning Prize: $25 gift certificate to the Pink Persimmon online store, plus the 2009 Stamping Ideas book from Scrapbook Trends.
Upload a link to your image to the comment section of this post by June 12th at Midnight PST and we'll do a random drawing for a winner. (If you would prefer to email the image to us, that is fine too: darcy@pinkpersimmon.com.)
Here's some inspiration for you (and a sneak peek at the new stamps sets that will be released on June 8th!):


Darcy--these samples for the challenge are wonderful! Love the doll's head--is that a stamp? (I hope, I hope!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Here is an older card, but as soon as I heard pink and orange it popped into my head cause I thought they went together so well.

Oh, my goodness, Darcy! I'm up super late & just checked to see IF the new stamps were online--and they are!!! I can't believe how much I love each and every new set--You two have outdone yourselves--I'm just giddy about the chance to play with them ALL!!! Have to pace myself, though, so hubby won't throw a fit....which to choose for tomorrow's order?..........thanks for the fun!
