Winter Friends preview for Pretty Pink Posh!

Hello, and happy Saturday!
Hope you have some fun weekend things planned! I will be mainly running around and getting some last minute things done before we leave for vacation to Cuba on Tuesday but first I have a very special post for you!
I feel oh so lucky and privileged to be a guest designer for Pretty Pink Posh`s AMAZING recent release. There will be a 2 day blog hop on November 12 & 13 show casing the wonderful new products by incredible designers along with some prizes but I'm here today to give you a little preview!
I'm seriously in love with her stamp sets! They are beyond adorable! Below are the main products I used. The adorable Winter Friends Stamp Set and the Scallop Frames Die, but I will list all products at the end of my post.

I created a shaker for this project. I started with water color paper and colored the background with some blue Zig real brush markers. I stamped the snow flakes from the stamp set with some distress ink . I created the shaker element using the smaller scallop frame. I filled with the new Holly Jolly sequins along with some gold, sparkling clear and silver shimmer seed beads, because my shaker element does not have a backing so you would see through to my water coloring area, the best way I found to fill the shaker was to put all my sequins in the middle of my paper and put my frame piece prepared with acetate and foam tape directly over it.
I stamped my little guys in the stockings on white card stock while doing some masking. Starting with the hats, masking them off while stamping my critters and then masking my critters while stamping the stocking. I colored using Copic markers and using my wink of stella glitter pen on the white area of the stockings. I adhered these little cuties over some twine on the shaker and used the little bows from the twine and bows die to the ends of the twine.


I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set on  a strip of  the same color card stock I used for the frame and used the Stitched borders 2 die on the top and bottom.


I hope you love the stamp sets and products from Pretty Pink Posh as much as I do!!
Thank you so much for joining me today!
Hope you will stop in again next week for the fun blog hop!
Have a lovely weekend!!
