Fade to White Coloring | Pretty Pink Posh

I love coloring but sometimes, there’s no time, especially with holiday cards — What if you still want some color? I use a super easy technique for coloring here and it just involves some light colored copics and the colorless blender. I love the effect of it. What do you think?

Clean & Simple | Pretty Pink Posh

Here’s a clean and simple card — something I don’t normally do often. Whenever there are snowmen on my card, it makes it easier to keep it simple because everything is already white and I only need to color up the accessories. I still wanted to incorporate colors so I did it with the accessories and the sentiment.

Draw In Borders | Pretty Pink Posh

I personally have a ton of stamps, dies and stencils but I don’t always have exactly what I need or want at a moment’s notice. I used these two images from Pretty Pink Posh to accent the corners of my card, but I felt like there wasn’t anything to pull it together so I grabbed a pen to draw borders in. It really grounded the layout and I loved how it brings the focus onto the sentiment. Be creative, use what you have, and you just might end up with the perfect card.

October Release Blog Hop | Pretty Pink Posh

Welcome to Pretty Pink Posh‘s October Release Blog Hop! We’re moving towards the holiday season and if you want a jumpstart on your holiday cards, be sure to check out the latest release from Pretty Pink Posh. Before we jump into my project for the hop, there’s a total of 4 $30 gift certificates up for grabs (one winner each day) for this 4 day blog hop! Winners will be picked randomly along the blog hop. Comments must be left by 11:59 PM PST on 9/19/2023. Winners will be announced on the Pretty Pink Posh blog.

Hi friends! There have been so many amazing projects already shared in the past three days of the blog hop and there’s so much inspiration today as well! Be sure to check it all out and today’s lineup! For today, I’m sharing this pretty holiday card that I put together using some of the new items from Pretty Pink Posh’s October release.

Something about the holidays just makes me pull out my kraft cardstock. The Layered Winter Wreath is just so pretty and works so well for a frame. I choice distress oxide inks for the stenciling because it has that chalky look which is extra pretty on kraft cardstock.

I am also using the Winter Birds stamps and dies for my accents to the wreath. I had a hard time choosing which birds I wanted to use, but I wanted them to look like they were holding onto the sign with the embossed sentiment.

Be sure to stop by the other stops for more inspiration and check back again tomorrow on the Pretty Pink Posh blog for a third day of inspiration!
