Pink scrappy landscape

My intentions for my monthly scrap challenge block was to make another mariners compass but when I only had 3 days until the end of the month, well there was just no way. So I went to the RSC15 site to look at the rules and I was happy to find out - there are no rules! Just make something out of your scraps in the color of the month. I can do this! The color for February is pink.
Out came the pink scraps

Chop, chop, snip,snip - pressy, pressy
Quickly a simple landscape block is born

I quilted it with some variegated pink thread but there is to much white in it

Out came the orange and purple sharpies

Of course I had to fabric rocks, a shell, some driftwood


Painted a stretched canvas .......... Well pink of course
added a little mixed media action - one of my favorite quotes
Voila!
Go to the rainbow scrap challenge to see all the other pink blocks

    Glad you changed course to accommodate the available time rather than doing nothing.
