Blog friends, have you been checking out my blog candy? Even if you don’t want to participate in the Spot the Difference part, you can still play – simply leave a comment on post to you get to when you click HERE, until July 6th to be in the running for the prizes in the picture. Okay, so you know on my card yesterday I created a frame by lining up an Anywhere punch . . . well since I had them out I decided to make another card. The lining up thing has simply clicked with me. I have errands to run today but hope to have a Becca Bit on lining those punches up, later today.
I uploaded something to one of my galleries recently and when looking at the “big picture” of all my stuff, it hit me . . . everything is pink and beige. Well, it is what it is, but I felt a little bit guilty about that. I think I’m in a vintage/shabby chic phase that I don’t necessarily want to fall out of, but what about the other colors. Well today, I decided let’s add another color along with the pink and beige. Works for me!
| SUPPLIES I USED |
| Stamps: Serendipity – And the Song Paper: The Paper Company, The Girls Paperie, Digital Paper Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, Vintage Photo Distress Ink, Antique Linen Distress Ink Accessories: Spellbinders Fancy Tags Two, Buttons, Twine, Seam Binding, Pearl Picks, Lace |
What a glorious day! I’m off now and then back in the studio for some catch up work. Thanks so much for stopping by today.
Hi Becca, such another beautiful card and I love the pale blue with the pink….so pretty. Those punch out hearts are so gorgeous looking forward to your Becca Bit. I do so appreciate you sharing all your wonderful works of art.
Love Sheila xx
So what’s wrong with pink and beige? :) You cards are always beautiful no matter the color combos you use. You should use colors that please YOU. Blue is my favorite color but I make a lot of pink cards because it seems to be the favortie color of the people I make them for. When I make them for my own pleasure I use blues. This card is stunning LOVE the blue hearts The Girls Paperie PP goes perfectly with it, as does the lace, bow and stick pins.
Blessings Bernie
I’m loving your pink and beige phase! LOL! another gorgeous card!
This card is gorgeous. I love pink and beige also. Thanks
And adding the light blue went perfectly with the pink and beige. Have a good day.
Love the hearts on this card. Very beautiful!!
Love those all-over-the-page punches, and I’m looking forward to the tutorial on how to exactly line them up. (BTW, the sidebar with the hearts is the difference I notice from the last card! Great touch too). I have been buying those punches, but not really using, because I can’t get them aligned properly so that the effect looks ‘even’. TFS the beautiful card. Wish I could combine colors as you do! Have a great day running errands, stay cool. Be safe.
BEAUTIFUL CARD Becca!!!!!!!!!! Can’t wait to see HOW you lined up those punches!!!!!!!! :) YOU’RE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!! (P.S. It’s “OK” if you like pink & beige!!!!!!!!! I THINK we do too!!!!! LOL)
Love the card,as always it is beauitful.
Thanks for the chance at the blog candy.

I love all your cards Becca…. all colours, all shapes, all sizes. The palest of blues works really well here… beautiful, as always!
Lovely card Becca. I use a great deal of pink myself. I also love your pearl picks. I have just treated myself to some so I’ll be experimenting.
love Christine x
Beautiful card and beautiful sentiment!
Lovely card Becca. That MS Anywhere punch is growing on me. I think I looked at them a number of times now… The colors are so pretty!
Love those hearts and the colors are perfect! Don’t worry about using them over and over. They were meant to be!
I like the color combination. The addition of the light blue really adds a lot. Beautiful card!
Just sooooo gorgeous again Becca. A wonderful card, that´s for sure. I love it.
Beautiful design!
Wow!! This is a beautiful card. I’m really loving this pink!
~Hope
Becca there is nothing wrong with using pink and beige. What you create is stunning work and it gives you a signature to your color combos. TFS all of your work and the Becca Bits.

I love this look, and am going to have to get some of these punches…

Love the hearts ! I will certainly watch your Becca Bit to find out how you line them up, I have never been very good at that. Your card is wonderful.
Just another gorgeous card!
Hi Becca – Love your card! You always come up with something new for us to try out. I look forward to your video on how to line up the punch. I love the color combination of your card.
Works for me too Becca – I love Turquoise. Beautiful.

I like the way you used the pink buttons inside the hearts. It balanced out the color perfectly. Thank you for sharing the skills, creativity, and techniques you used in making this beautiful card.
You astound me with the uniqueness of your designs. Beautiful!
I am in love with this card. Is the dp digital and if so from where!
Awesome card! Everything you create is always beautiful no matter what colors you use! Love what you have done with the Anywhere punches and am eager to learn how to line them up!
Another beautiful card Becca. I really like the pink and beige combo so I have been enjoying seeing them. What I like most baout your cards is they are always very unique.
Cheryl
And I was just going to ask how you got the hearts lined up like that, and were they dies, or what… So now I’ll just wait to watch the Becca Bit.
Thanks, Jess
This is gorgeous, I love how you did the hearts. Will that be a Becca bit??:)
Amazing card! Thanks
it is nice as always !!
Love the hearts. I have done this technique only once, but the outcome was lovely. I eagerly await for the tut on this so I can try it again.
. . . . since strawberries are in full harvest right now, I can’t wait for fresh homemade shortcake!
Love those three hearts – and all the rest too! :)
Becca, I love your shabby chic look, with the subtle colors that you use. Now, you have added the light blue with the pink buttons to contrast with your floral pink background. Love your work
Hi Becca
Love your pink and beige fase. I haven’t seen a card that you made, that I don’t LOVE! Thank you for all your ideas, Becca bits and tutorials. Look forward to your posts. Thank you for another chance to win your amazing blog candy! Can’t wait to see your next Becca bit, you are just so creative! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us.
Such a sweet card- I love this sentiment!
Becca,
Never thought to use my punches in that way! I love it! I’ll look forward to seeing your tips on how to create it. Another TT card! (Truely Terrific)
Luerae
How beautiful, I look forward to the tutorial. God bless…….denice
Becca –
What a sweet card! I love all the hearts you’ve used, including the pink heart stickpin. The touch of lace beneath the ribbon is just perfect! AWESOME!
Elaine Allen
lovely, those anywhere punches didn’t intrigue me until now
Oh, I’m so thrilled to hear that you’ll be doing a tutorial on how you work with these punches! I’ve been tempted by them in the store, but thought I’d lack inspiration on how to make effective use of them…. and end up just randomly punching into the middle of some paper, then thinking “so what?”
Both the earlier card and this one are stunning, so I’m really looking forward to seeing what you do!
Oh, and thanks (I think?!) for enabling me yet again in terms of MS punches!
Hi Becca
love this shabby chic card!
Do you make a own pick? Wondering
how you stop the last bead from slipping down the pin?
Thanks Bonnie
Your attention to detail on your cards is AMAZING PAPER GRACE. TFS.
Love this shabby chic period in your designing. In fact, it might just be my very favourite! It’s just so very very pretty! Everything about it is lovely; I simply don’t know where to start with what makes it click for me.
Beautiful, love the color combination. Can’t wait for the tutorial on the punches.
My fav colors are pink and blue- I am loving this beautiful card!!!
The hearts against the gingham background give this card a lovely summer picnic feel! Very, very pretty!
I have been all over the internet trying to figure out which punch you are using for this card. Fabulous card, the button accent is a darling touch also. I am waiting for the Becca Bit for this one!!! Well, actually I really love your Becca Bits and save them for future refrence. You are a wealth if information and so generous with your time and energy…THANK YOU!
Very pretty card and love the verse. Edna
Another amazing card Becca!! I will have to get some of those punches.
beautiful card Becca
Love your card, as always. Don’t fret about using the same colors, we all tend to favor certain color combinations and there’s nothing wrong with that. Thanks again for sharing your lovely creations with us.
Becca: I love this card and am waiting on the tutorial on this. You are such a help to me with all your instructions.
Love this card. Looking forward to the tutorial on it
I bought one of those “all over the page punches” and worked forever trying to make it work. I did not get your inspired moment of understanding, so it went back to the store. I’ve tried to comment three times since July 1 and it never shows up. I have done it before so I dont know what I am forgetting. Searched all over your site cause I know you mentioned something about this very subject recently… can’t find it… BTW favorite food, hands down, is Chocolate, dark chocolate (70%).
Beautiful Card (as always). You are such an inspiration and I love your pink and beige combinations so don’t stop!!! Thanks for all you share.
Love the card Becca. The hearts are what I notice first. They seem to pop off the page. Did you use a MS punch? I’ll have to wait for your Becca Bit to see how you did it. Great card!
Beautiful card (as always). You are such an inspiration with all your beautiful creations. I like your pink and beige creations so don’t stop using them. Thanks for all you share!!!!!
So feminine and oh so pretty. Love the colors chosen. The DP is so beautiful. I’m still loving the use of your stick-pins. As always Becca, TFS!!! :-D
A classic, as always. Beautiful.
You really ARE awesome with punches! Looking forward to the Becca Bit! I tried to do the medallion with the Optic Dot corner punch…um…not a success. I will keep trying though! Every time I lifted the punch up to be sure the paper was square in the corner, it would slide out! Of course, I was trying this at 3AM! LOL
Another beauty! You really wow us, Becca!
Hugs

I love the softness of this card. So pretty!
I really like this card. Can’t wait on the tutorial.
I love the way you used the punches and then added the buttons too. Such a nice card.
I love the way you used the punches and then added the buttons. Such a cute card.
I like the changes and the sentiment and hearts on the sidebar. Your tutorials are always great, can’t wait for this one
Love the shabby chic theme and pastel colors on this card. Was wondering how to line up the new MS AOTP punches. Hadn’t seen this ruffled heart one yet. I’ll be looking forward to your Becca Bit. TFS – I’m always learning how to do something new from you, Becca.. Appreciate it!
Becca, amazing card!
This card is cute. I like the punch you use for the heart and then adding little button on them. I love the saying. Thank you for sharing.
Have a great weekend :)

Hi Becca – just love this card, and also yesterdays card is gorgeous, love the colors!!!! As always, I so appreciate you sharing your talent. I couldn’t leave a comment yesterday as the comment area was some sort of “garble” (I’m not very computer savvy). Thank you for the opportunity to win this lovely gift. I am just delighted to say that earlier today I discovered that a Michael’s will be opening a store nearby! This is so, so exciting! The store is just under construction so it will be quite a wait yet. This morning I found some tiny, pretty frames at a garage sale so I’ll be trying my hand at the pincushion. Thanks again Becca. Blessings.
Cute , cute card .. Love the gingham and flowers. Don’t “fall out of the shabby chic” too soon, it’s my favorite style!
Can’t wait to check your website every day Becca. It’s like opening a gift. Your cards, and comments, are beautiful and your love shines through it all!
(If this is the ‘favorite food’ blog, my favorite is cheese, cheese, cheese!!
love that side heart panel, how did you do that?
so pretty! Peach ribbon is great :)
Susan
Loveeeeeeeeeee the colors Becca. Shabby chic is in and your card gives that statement top billing. You are so blessed with a God given talent gf and it shines through you and your art. Luv ya. Hugs.
I really like the hearts on the side. Guess I will have to look into these punches. Wasn’t much interested until I saw how you are using them.
Love cup custard, strawberries and Rice Krispies for special breakfasts. Yummy! Just like your card!!!!
God protect our service men and women and bring them home safely!
Beautiful card, Becca! Love your color combos…….ALWAYS!!! I’m excited about the Becca Bit you will be doing next!
Blessings!
Vickie
Have been looking at these punch anywhere on the page punches, but have not purchased because I’m not sure how to line them up evenly. Am awaiting your tutorial…and if all works out, I’ll be heading off to the craft store. This card has given me a little inspiration. Thanx
Don’t understand why my comments aren’t getting thru…(or appear not too,) so will try again. Looking forward to the tutorial on the punch anywhere on the page punches. Your card has given me some inspiration.
Thanx
What a beautiful card Becca. Love the little buttons on the point of the hearts — so gorgeous!
The addition of the blue really is terrific. Love how those hearts line up and will be looking forward to your Becca Bit!
What a pretty card. I can see the spellbinders Tags 2 is going to be a must have for me. I love the papers with this one too. Just so girlie and pretty
Sallyann

Hi there Becca,
I love your card, and that you added a touch of blue…but, I still love your pink/beige shabby style! Actually, I LOVE everything you create ~ Really!!!
Wishing you a blessed day,
Barb G.
I love whatever colors you use because you coordinate them so well. You’re always such an inspiration.
What a beautiful card! I love the soft colors and the lacy design.
I love your “girly” cards! They’re so pretty. I really like the soft, shabby chic, vintage-y look, and you do it so well.
Fabulous!
Another beautiful card…your talent amazes me. Thanks Becca
I don’t think you can make an ugly card can you? each of your cards is just beautiful….thanks for sharing them and for all the tips too…
You make such beautiful cards. Thanks fir all of the inspiration.
Everyone of the projects are really beautiful, and your bows are out of this world. I only wish I had half your talent. Thanks for giving all of us inspiration.
I love the combinations you’ve been using and they don’t look the same at all. I love bright, but on a card sometimes softer is what is called for. Keep inspiring us.
Again you just blow me away with your use of color and texture. Absolutely gorgeous card.
HI Becca; my favorite food is everything. Watermelon is fantastic. I love all
your cards as I have said fefore. Especially the pink as that is what I make the
most of. Seems like that is what people like. But I like anything you make.
Your ideas are so fresh and fantastic. Thanks for anther blog candy trip.
This one is really different. But fun.
cynthia
Beeautiful!! what punch did u use for the hearts? so pretty
Love the punch, the card and the chance to win some blog candy!
Becca,
I love your card. The colors are wonderful. Who doesn’t like pink and beige. The cards have been beautiful. Please keep them coming.
What a gorgeous card, Becca. Love the hearts and buttons. Love the colors!! I am impatiently awaiting your Becca Bit!! Have a great Fourth of July Becca!!Hugs.
Your card is sooo pretty! I love your pink and beige and greens and blues you have been using. They are all so soft and delicate. No complaints here!!!
Thank you for sharing all your pretty designs on here! :)
Becca,
Your card is quite beautiful. In fact your cards are great in any colors.
They are girly and delicate. Thanks for sharing your talent.
You couldn’t have added a more perfect color for me… I call it Baby Teal or Baby Turquoise and my whole bedroom is painted in a soft shade of that color. It goes so well with the pinks and roses. Keep that one in your color repetoire. It soothes the spirit and the mind. I love it!!
OK…I looked again, you removed the flower & added a bow, which I missed yesterday, when I saw the soft blue hearts. I was overwhelmed by the gorgeousness, missed the additions! Have a lovely Sunday.
Another awesome card. It doesn’t matter what embellishment you use your cards are always outstanding. Thanks for sharing. Kindest regards kendell
I can’t remember if I have commented on this card or not yet – sorry! Busy day and the brain isn’t firing on all pistons – darn age thing LOL! Your card is gorgeous. Love the hearts down the side and the focal sentiment panel shape is great! Another Becca beauty :) Keep the pink and cream coming I say :)
LOVELY AS ALWAYS.
I continue lost in your wonderful cards. Another favorite food is watermelon, can’t get enough of it. Just the right holiday for it.
Happy Sunday Becca,
My you have been busy, I just love all your cards.
It took me a while. It is sort of like looking for a needle in a haystack.
I love the sentiments you are putting on your cards. they will fit so many occasions 7-3-11

Beautiful! Your creativity never ceases to amaze me!! Oh and btw….I made a flower loom after watching your tutorial and now my aunt wants me to make one for her and to show her how to use it. I will make it for her this week but I am referring her to your tutorial so she can become a fan of yours too! Thank you for constantly inspiring me.
Simply gorgeous card – as always! Blessings!
Hot butter popcorn (with REAL butter) is always yummy! Happy 4th of July to you Becca!
