Hello Pink Ombre featuring Pretty Pink Posh

Hi crafty friends!

Hope your having a lovely week so far!
Stopping in to share a fun ombre card with you I created doing some ink blending!
I love all things ombre:)


I started with an A2 size of white card stock, I made sure it was longer so once it was cut down it could be layered.
I ink blended with a few different shades of pink ink, once I was happy with the color I splattered with some water to give it a distressed sort of look. I then used some starry colors Gansai Tambi water colors in yellow gold and champagne gold and flicked some splatters on to my panel using a paint brush.
Once my panel was try I then broke it up into 4 different pieces by cutting it several times using one of the Scallop Border dies from PPP. I layered them overlapping each other but I didn't put adhesive close to the ends where the scallop is, as I wanted it to flair up just a tad so I can sneak some sequins under the over laps, as well as give it that overlapped feel.
I then stamped the hello sentiment and swirls from butterflies  from the Blissful Butterflies stamp set from PPP.
I added the twine and bow on top which I cut from Fog card stock from the Twine and Bow die also from PPP.
To finish the card off I added a clear droplet in the middle of my bow and scattered with some rose gold sequins!

That's it for me today!
Hope you enjoyed.
I wasn't so sure about all the pink at first but I love the way it turned out!

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Watercolor Butterflies & Pretty Pink Posh announcement

Hello!

Thought I'd share a fun butterfly card with you today featuring the Blissful Butterflies stamp set from PPP. Love this tiny new set, the butterflies are just oh so pretty!


I started with a piece of watecolor  paper and stamped my butterflies and sentiment with Versamark ink and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. 
I used my Zig markers to color in the butterflies and also do some watercolor splatters in the background. I then used one of the borders from the new Scallop Borders die also from PPP to give give this panel some more interest. I put some gold sparkle paper behind it and adhered the panel onto a purple card base.
And of course to finish it off I scattered a few sequins!

I'm so happy to announce I'll be staying on with the Pretty Pink Posh design team for another term! We have have some new designers joining us so to celebrate there is a matching game going over at the Pretty Pink Posh blog.
Match the designer with their card and someone will win a $100 gift certificate!
Hope you'll head over and play along!
hint: mine has lots of colorful sequins:P



Thank you so much for stopping by today!!
Enjoy your day!

Cheer up Friend featuring Pretty Pink Posh

Hi friends!

Hope your having a lovely week so far!
Stopping in today to share a quick card featuring the Rainy Days addition stamp set from Pretty Pink Posh.


For my card I started with some Fog cardstock from SSS and die cut with the Storybook 5 die. I ran the die through a second time with white cardstock to use the inside pieces for the background and sentiment.
For the background I blended a few colors of Distress ink and splattered with some water. I adhered both my background and sentiment piece in layed into my original fog colored piece I die cut.
I then stamped all my images onto white cardtock and cut out using the coordinating dies, the puddle I fussy cut out leaving a small white outline.
I adhered my images onto my background but I popped up my cloud with some foam tape. 
To finish my card off I used some clear droplets to make it look like rain drops!
:)

That's it for me today!
Thank you for stopping by!!

Hello Beautiful Frame

Hello!
Happy Friday!! Yay for Fridays!:D
Popping in today with something a little different. I have a decor item to share with you today rather then a card.
It is fairly clean and simple looking but depending on what frame you may put it in, it looks elegant:)

Ok so on how to how I created it.
I started off with white card stock and die cut my beautiful sentiment with a die from MFT, (listed below) I stamped a small hello sentiment above the die cut image and then used some gold perfect pearls mist and sprayed some on towards the bottom of the piece.

On a separate piece of white cardstock, I traced the outline of the die its self with a pencil. I then filled that whole area in with gold sequins from PPP. I used both 4 mm and 6 mm and just used which ever one fit better in that area. 
I adhered them all down by using Zots bling glue dots, You could probably do this using the normal ashesive you use for sequins however I started by using glossy accents but found the zots glue dots much easier as you can move them around and adjust them if needed.
I lined that piece up behind my main panel and that's it!
The frame I used is from Homesence or Winners, I can't actually remember sorry lol I tend to hoard frames and just store them until I need them.



I thought something like this would look really pretty on a make up table or area, also would be a nice gift. I'm having a baby girl so maybe this will go in her room , we shall see!!

Hope you enjoyed!
Have an amazing weekend!
