Challenge #83 - Favourite Stamp or Image

Hi Pinkies!

Are you getting all your Christmas cards ready?  It's getting so close now!

But today, we're staying away from Christmas as our challenge is:

FAVOURITE STAMP OR IMAGE
(in pink of course)

Now even us Pink Ladies struggled a bit to make the final decision of what was our favourite - so you could narrow it down to your 'favourite at the moment' if that helps!  Don't forget our number one rule though, that you use MORE PINK THAN ANY OTHER COLOUR (with the exception of whites or neutrals), otherwise your card may not be considered.  Our PINK blog is all about just that...  our favourite colour - PINK!

Here's what the Pink Ladies came up with for your inspiration....






(More details on each card available by clicking on the name above each)

Our generous sponsor this time is Bunny Zoe's Crafts - you could win a £10 voucher (exc of shipping) to spend at their fabbie store online, if your name is chosen at random from our Perfect Pinkies.
