In today’s video, I’m taking a first look at Tim Holtz’s new Distress colour for February, Kitsch Flamingo. I know when the new colour was revealed that some people were surprised to be getting a pink from Tim, not only that but a true bright pink. Having watched Tim’s live though where he introduced the new colour and I can understand where this pink fits into the Distress colour line and how it will blend and mix beautifully with other colours from the range. Here I used it with Dried Marigold and Festive Berries and the Sweet Friend stamp and die set from Simon Says Stamp. I’ve linked all supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

One of my favourite bits of this card is the Crackle Distress Texture Paste through the Boho Circle stencil

So my first look at Kitsch Flamingo and yes, despite it being a pink colour which wouldn’t normally be in my muted palette wheelhouse, I actually can see my using this colour a lot. The pink pops and contrasts nicely with more muted, antique flavoured colours of the rest of the card and that play of one against the other makes for an interesting combination.
