Altenew AND Pretty Pink Posh Collaboration blog hop!!

Hello and welcome to the Altenew and Pretty Pink Posh collaboration blog hop! I am so excited and honored to be part of this hop as I really love products from both of these companies so much. Thank you May for inviting me over...it is an honor and was fun to create. Now you must have come from Liz Sarkisyan awesome blog


For today's hop we were to create winter themed cards. I have this cute small and cozy winter village scene stamp from Altenew called "Winter Cottage" and it was fun using it in 2 ways.

For my first card, I sponged the cardbase from top using 3 colors of distress inks and flicked some gold ink to it. I then cut a panel using this pretty Scallop border die by Pretty Pink Posh. I then embossed the image using gold embossing powder and applied some chalk pastels to add color. I stamped this beautiful sentiment using Navy ink and love how the card turned out. To finish, I adhered some pretty sequins by PPP. 



For my 2nd. card I simply stamped the image using Smokey Grey ink. Added a touch of  watercolor. I adhered this panel to the cardbase. I then cut a piece of linen cardstock using the scallop border die and framed the image using 3D foam. Those clear sequins add perfect touch to the card and I love them the best. They are my favorite as they come in a variety of sizes.

Holiday Cheer!

Hello Everyone! I am so happy to share these cards using the new release by Simon Says Stamp "Believe in the Season". There are lots of awesome products. The stamp set I used today is called Winter Flowers and I really love the artsy feel to it.

I decided to use some pretty embossing powders and color in loosely using Zig Clean Color real brush markers.

For the first card, I simply used some gold pearl embossing powder to stamp the images. Then I colored it using various Zig markers. I stamped and embossed the sentiment in white over black cardstock. Love the subtle effect.



For the 2nd. card, I used white pearl embossing powder and colored the images using some darker colors. It gives a beautiful effect.




Do check out the new release HERE...it's awesome :)

Hello and Welcome Everyone! I'm so thrilled to be hopping for Ruby's Bridal Shower. If you haven't heard the news, the big day happened on Saturday, September 24th.

Amy planned this hop with a bunch of crafty friends to celebrate, papercrafter style! Before you hop around, here are a couple words from the blushing bride:

"Steve and I are very excited about starting a new life together. We look forward to beautiful memories in a new home and lots of adventures overall. We are grateful for the support and love from our family and friends. My heart is full, and I truly feel so blessed and loved. :)"

This is the inspiration photo for the wedding cake:


I decided to base my card upon the photo. Flowers, pink and a touch of green. I used these pretty florals by WPlus9 and the sentiment is by Altenew. I did some watercoloring to the floral images.
