I'm Back and Thinking Pink

CCEE Stampers post one below:
 
 
 
 
I've returned after being away for a few weeks. Thanks to all who came by my blog while I was away. I'll be visiting your blogs very soon.

I'm in a pink mood...at least, for today. :-) My card is simple with two handmade banners, adding a die cut and placing the Inspired by Stamping sentiment over it. The sentiment and pretty circle are from the Inspired by Stamping Cute Circles set. I colored the circle on the inside to match the rose colored banner, using Copic RV17.

I made this card for a couple of challenges:

Hallo Brenda,
ich freue mich, das du wieder zurück bist und dann gleich wieder mit einer schönen farbenfrohen Karte. Sie gefällt mir sehr gut.
Sie muntert meine Stimmung ein wenig auf, denn zur Zeit ist es bei mit sehr kalt und es regnet viel. Das ist nicht typisch für Deutschland.
Vielen Dank auch für deinen Besuch auf meinem Blog.
♥ Grüße, Anja
