My Pink-alicious Blog Hop

Welcome to this month's My Pink-alicious Blog Hop!  You should have arrived here from Missy's blog. 
This month we were challenged as follows:

Challenge: Use the color red, a circle, a pink ribbon and MORE THAN ONE My Pink Stamper stamp.

I have been creating with the Cricut cartridge Victorian Romance and decided that I would use this cart with Robyn's stamps to create a mini word book for my project.

*** I went back and added shadows to the lettering and some liquid Pearls.  I didn't like how the lettering didn't pop against the similar backgrounds.  As I add embellishments to each additional page, I will update the pictures.  =)

Materials Used:

• Cricut cartridge Victorian Romance
• My Pink Stamper From the Heart stamp set
• K&Company McKenna paper pad
• Ranger Worn Lipstick distress ink
• Stampin' Up! cardstock in Rose Red, Very Vanilla, Mellow Moss and Always Artichoke
• Misc. ribbon from my stash

I just love the old fashioned and romantic feel the cuts on this cartridge have and how Robyn's stamps paired up with them perfectly!  I like how stamping with the distress ink made the sentiments look aged.

I want to add some more soft bling and embellishing to the mini as well, but I wanted to keep it clean and simple for the blog hop. 
Here are the files to this word book if you would like to easily recreate:
