My Pin-spirational #334 DT project with red and pink color theme on 1 Feb 2026

Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!

why: This posting spotlights my second design team project for Pin-spirational Challenges owned by artisan/blogger friend Deanne. The themes in 2026 are color combinations. Pin-spirational #334 color combo = red and pink. I've used more pink tones than reds but the reds are there in the dots of the scalloped border and outlining of the border and chain of hearts. There is a small spot in the watercolor swirled print CS that gets close to dark red just above the light pink heart on the right side. In person, there are neon pinks so the contrast of tones is greater. 

when: #334 starts on February 1, 2026 and ends on Feb 28; which is the last day in February this year (no leap year). 

what: Project #1 = "Love you always"



how-to & vendor notes for #1 = 

1. watercolor/swirl print CS = multicolor pack = Crafter's Square

2. the middle heart cut-out (and scalloped border) is actually a neon bright pink = Astrobrights/Neenah

3. the left and right heart cut-outs = Art Skills cardstock scraps

4. dots in the scalloped border = bright pink glitter glue = Art Skills

5. red and magenta markers for dotting in the scalloped border and just red for outlining of the border and the heart cut-outs

6. 'love you always' = part of a mixed expression clear stamps pack= unmarked bag = given in a kindness box

7. the pink peony flower stickers = Market Square sticker book by Maggie Holmes, 2021, American Crafts

8. two butterflies and three small pale pink flowers; stickers with white margins that were altered = Antique Garden sticker book by K & Company; 2021; American Crafts

9. Condensed Milk color alcohol marker to change the K & Co stickers' white margins to pale beige; I did this since the other stickers have clear margins; not as noticeable

where #1 will be linked =

1A. Girlz Creative Fun Art of Scrap; new on Jan 25/open for a month; theme to use at least 1 designer/patterned paper = my base layer is a pretty and bold swirling, watercolor kind of mix of differing tones of pink and others

link = https://girlzcreativefunartofscrap.blogspot.com/2026/01/challenge-18.html

1B. Inkspirational; new on Jan 31; theme is word prompt = XOXO; My card has lots of hearts and flowers as well as "Love you always" stamped - very heartwarming

those wintery whites, grays/silvery and light blue tones match very well to this idea I had --

the upcoming Valentine's Day holiday card is for my mom and her favorite color is blue and I also wanted to keep it winter season colors too instead of lots of reds or pinks

and HQCB is starting something new today as well with having a Valentine's Day Cards challenge that is offered as a page option and has its own Inlinkz tool address for entry submissions. 



For V-Day theme #1, the project(s) can use either heart shape or word or the word love AND a doily. The Valentine's Day card needs to have both. You can have more than 1 heart shape. And you can use both the word heart and the word love. 

Heart and love can also be their other language equivalents. You can also use a form or variation like heartfelt, heartful, hearts, loves, loved, loving. 

On the HQCB site, go to the right sidebar and about halfway down will be a category titled "page options". Click on the one stating HQCB Valentine's Day Cards Challenge.
