Pretty Pink Posh October Blog Hop!

 



Hi Everyone! I'm so excited to share that I am a guest designer for Pretty Pink Posh this month! Today is day one of a THREE day blog hop celebrating their new release!


I created my card using their new products; Villages Stamps, Village Dies, Village Additions Stamps and Village Additions Dies. I also used the greetings set Holiday Scripts Stamps and Holiday Scripts Dies.


I stamped, die cut and colored several of the images from the village sets. These are SO enjoyable to put to together and bring me back to my childhood when I painted ceramic Christmas villages. I layered the building on top of white glitter cardstock which gives the card a magical feel. The details are amazing. I kept the buildings soft which helped the greeting to pop. TIP: I cut the "s" off of the large Holiday sentiment so I could group it with Greetings. 

I can't wait to share the other cards I have created for this month! These stamps are quickly becoming some of my favorites!

There is an amazing giveaway today. Just leave a comment on each blog along the hop. One comment will be chosen each day to win a $25 gift certificate to Pretty Pink Posh. Comments must be left by 11:59PM PST on 10/19/2021.

There is also an amazing stencil set that is FREE on the Pretty Pink Posh website for orders over $125. Check out the details...


Today's blog hop! So much inspiration! Check it out...

Mama Elephant: October Anniversary Stampede!

It's Mama Elephant Birthday Stampede time!  This is so awesome, right? I'm so excited you've joined me from Stephanie's blog! Today I'm a sharing a lot of stamping goodness! Now that I'm counting, my card uses 4 new Mama Elephant stamp sets ! This card all started with the sentiment. My kids are always buzzing around the house singing and one of their favorite is Everything is Awesome (Lego Movie anyone?). :) I started with a faint pencil line to create AWESOME from the new Block Party Letters . I colored them in with Copics and then did some creative masking and stamping from Happy Everything to add the beginning of the sentiment. Next I stamped the penguin and hat (from the new Artic Penguins ), colored them and die cut them for a perfect cut. The soft, grey striped background was created using the new Boutique Borders . All stamps and dies can be purchased NOW at the Mama Elephant store HERE . Next up? The very talented JJ Bolton !
