Autumn Greetings with Pretty Pink Posh

Hi All! Can you believe it is the last day October! Happy Halloween! I am ending the month with a fall themed card with a combination of products from Pretty Pink Posh.

I started by coloring my stamped images with Copic Markers. I used a combination of stamps from the Pumpkin Patch Critters Stamp Set, the Winter Woodland Stamp Set, and the Woodland Critters Stamp Set. Looking at my colored images I thought my colors choices were pretty bold and deep so I decided I wanted to keep my background soft. I blended a combination of Squeezed Lemonade and Scattered Straw Distress Inks and then splattered the background with water and watered down gold paint. 

I die cut the larger die in the Window Frames Dies directly into the card front. I added foam tape behind the window and then added die cut images to created the scene. The sentiment is from the Pumpkin Patch Critters Stamp Set. I die cut the leaves in the Small Stitched Foliage Dies and added the color with distress inks. I finished the card off with Gold Confetti. 

Thanks for taking a look!

Autumn Greetings with Pretty Pink Posh

Autumn Greetings

Hi all! I am finishing up a few fall themed cards this week before I move on to Christmas with new products from Pretty Pink Posh.  Today my card is created with the Autumn Wreath Stamp Set from Pretty Pink Posh.

I really love the Autumn Wreath Stamp Set. Here I stamped the wreath in Brown Ink and colored with Copic Markers. I die cut the wreath with the Autumn Wreath Coordinating Dies and then lightly brushed the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink. 

I hung the wreath from gold twine and added the bow with the Twine and Bows Dies cut from gold foil. The sentiment is from the stamp set. I finished off with a few Metallic Gold Jewels.

So Much To Be Thankful For

Hi! With my design team commitments I don't always have time to play with some of the new, fun products I have in stash. This month I got a chance to play along with the Reverse Confetti Stock Your Stash Challenge. This month the challenge is to create a Thanksgiving themed card.

I used a combination of new and previously release products to create the card, The pumpkin and leaves are from the Pumpkin Patch Stamp Set and die cut with the coordinating Pumpkin Patch Confetti Cuts. I envisioned my pumpkins and candles sitting a tablecloth. I used the Edgers Confetti Cuts to create the look of a tablecloth. 

The candles are from the new Christmas Candles Stamp Set and die cut with the Christmas Candles Confetti Cuts.   To create the card front I used the  Lacy Scallop Frame Confetti Cuts. This is one of very favorite dies! On this card I strung gold twine through the die cuts around the edge of cardstock. 

Thanks for taking a look! You can find of the information about the challenge here.

Pretty Pink Posh + Glue Dots Collaboration Hop Day 2

A very big crafty hello and welcome to our very special blog hop collaboration with Pretty Pink Posh & Glue Dots!

We are going to bring you a fun blog hop where there are PRIZES from both companies up for grabs, along with inspiration and videos. The crafters involved in this hop are going to bring you an array of projects, coloring inspiration and a variety of ways to have fun with both Pretty Pink Posh & Glue Dots collectively.

Here is what I came up with. These beautiful flower are created with the Anemones Stamp Set and the Anemones Coordinating Dies. The flowers are stamped in black ink and colored with Copic Markers. 

The Extra Coverage Glue Dots are perfect for attaching the larger flowers to my card front. And the Pop-Up Dots work great to pop up a few of the flowers and to add extra dimension to my card. 

To create the card front I added a striped patterned paper, and then a panel of white cardstock, brushed with Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink, and matted on a pink cardstock. I stamped a sentiment from the Thoughtful Greetings Stamp Set and splattered black paint on the paper. I used the Permanent GlueTape Runner to attached all my panels to the card front. The card is finished off with Lemon Drop Jewels. 

We have a super talented line up ahead....

Pretty Pink Posh + Glue Dots Collaboration Hop Day 2

Alpine Merry Christmas

Hi Crafters! Have you started your Christmas cards? I am beginning to stock pile cards now because I know the rest of the year will speed by! I recently purchased the Alpine Window by Julie Ebersole,  Essentials by Ellen Designer Dies. These dies are so creative and there a number of different ways to use them.

Here is my first card I created with the Alpine Window Dies. My inspiration for the card is the September Essentials Challenge at Ellen Hutson. This month is a sketch challenge. Sketch challenges are great for inspiration and love how my card turned out. I started by laying out panels of patterned paper on a white card front and then cut a circle directly into the card front with the circle die in the set. 

I used the addition three dies in the set to create the circle frame and the the window scene. I sponged on white pigment ink on the mountains and embossed with white embossing powder. Then I splattered white paint. The sentiment is from the Mondo Holly by Julie Ebesole, by Essentials by Ellen Clear Stamps. The holly leaves are created with the Pretty Pink Posh Festive Holly Dies and I added Pearl White Jewels to the center of the berries. 

You can find the challenge here. Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks Shaker Card

Hi! I have a fall card to share today. It is actually feeling like fall in San Diego. We even got rain over the weekend. I am definitely ready for sweater weather!

I created this shaker card with the Thanks Leaf Shaker Die from Pretty Pink Posh. I used the die to cut the outline of the leaf directly into the card front and then a second time from a green cardstock to add the outline of the leaf. Behind the leaf I added clear acetate and foam to form the shaker. I dropped in sequins from the 4mm Autumn Harvest Sequins Mix and 6mm Gold Confetti. 

To create the background pattern I randomly stamped images from the Autumn Wreath Stamp Set on Kraft Cardstock in Versamark Ink and embossed with Gold Embossing Powder. I colored the images with Copic Markers. The final touch is gold twine wrapped around the card front and tied in bow. 

Thanks for stopping by! I will have a few more projects to share this week. You can also follow me on Instagram!
