Big Hugs with Pretty Pink Posh

Happy Friday! I am looking forward to the weekend! We are celebrating my husband's birthday which means I will have all my kids together in one place! I am popping in today with a card I created with the new Elephant Friends Stamp Set from Pretty Pink Posh.

I colored the images with Copic Markers and added a coat of glitter pen to the balloons. And then I die cut the images with the Elephant Friends Coordinating Dies. I kept the background simple with some light clouds and a strip of patterned paper for the grass.

The sentiment is included in the stamp set. I finished off the card with a few Caribbean Blue Jewels.

Sending You A Big Hug!

Hi All! We are finally having some beautiful spring weather here in San Diego. Time to clean off the patios and pull out the lounge chairs! It a perfect time to share this pretty butterfly card created with the Big Butterfly Stamp Set from Taylored Expressions.

I stamped the butterfly in Oreo Ink, colored the images with Copic Markers, and then I die cut the butterfly with Big Butterfly Die. I wanted to keep the background simple so I just stenciled some light clouds with the Set the Scene - Clouds Stencil Strips.

I also wanted to keep the sentiment simple and the Simple Strips Background Stamp and the Simple Strips Die is perfect! I finished off the card with a few sequins.

Thanks for stopping by!

I Love My Teacher!

Hi Friends! Well it is that time of year when we start thinking about the end of the school year and how we can thank our teachers for all the time, effort, and support that they given our children throughout the school year.

I created a thank card and gift card holder with some great products from Taylored Expressions.

I created the background with the Alphabet Soup Cutting Plate. I die cut the cutting plate twice and then adhered the two layers together for extra dimension. I really like this cutting plate and think it would also be great for anything school related, new baby cards, and children's birthday cards.

I stamped the sentiment in Cherry Pop Ink with the Apple Of My Eye Stamp Set and die cut with the Apple Stacklets. The stem is die cut with the Apple Stem and Seeds die in Granny Smith Ink. (see links below)

I used the Tag Pocket Die to create this gift card holder. The tag would look cute die on a small gift or a gift bag. I added one of the smaller apples in the Apple Of My Eye Stamp Set.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope I given you some inspiration to start on your end of school year gifts!

Congrats Grad and a Sale!

Pretty Pink Posh is having a three day sale on the School Friends Stamp Set and School Friends Coordinating Dies. I created a graduation card with the stamps and dies and the new Congrats Grad Stamp Set and Congrats Grad Coordinating Dies. The sets pair perfectly together!!

I started by creating the background using the new Graduation Stencil and black embossing paste. I used a corner rounder to round the edges of the card front. Next I colored the stamped images with Copic Markers and die cut with the coordinating dies.

I created the frame with the smaller die in the Scallop Frames Dies from red cardstock. The sentiment from the Congrats Grad Stamp Set is stamped in Versamark Ink and embossed with white embossing powder. I set the sentiment inside the frame and added a piece of vellum behind the frame. At the top of the graduation hat I added a jewel from the Midnight Black Jewels.

Have a great rest of the week!
