Hello!!
I'm thrilled to little bits and honored to be participating in the final day of the Pretty Pink Posh 2nd Birthday Celebration!! I've had the great pleasure of meeting Paulina in person and fell instantly in love with this happy, driven, and uber kind and generous human being. I'm proud to call her my friend, and I am so incredibly happy for her success!! Two years is a huge accomplishment, and I can tell you without a doubt, the success of Pretty Pink Posh is solely because Paulina eats, breathes and sleeps her business! She is dedicated beyond measure, and I know that this is just the beginning for her . . . there are great things to come, and I couldn't be happier to see someone so special reap those incredible rewards! No one deserves it more! You go, girlfriend!!
I created two projects to share with you all as inspiration using some of Pretty Pink Posh's brand spankin' new product!! Check it!
My first project features the new Stitched Tabs Dies. These dies are so incredibly fun to play with and immediately sparked my creativity! This special birthday card also features the Stitched Labels 1 Dies and Stitched Borders 3 Dies, as well as a sprinkling of the new Gold Mini Star Confetti. A special birthday card for a very special lady!
My second project features the new Storybook 3 Die and the Iridescent Mini Star Confetti. Instead of die cutting the Storybook 3 Die, I used it to die cut some Stamping Mask Paper and adhered the mask to the card base. I created that fun cloud background with a stencil and some distress ink. I then slid the die inside the edges of the adhered mask and embossed the die into the card base. I so love the effect that this technique leaves behind when you peel away the mask! The stamped images are from the Simon Says/Pretty Pink Posh set called Darling Friends - Paulina's first foray into the stamp illustration game!! So stinkin' cute, right?! I've had this set for quite a while, and am so happy to finally have a chance to ink it up. This one's for you, sweet friend!
Okay, it's time for the details of the hop! Lots of prizes, giveaways, and incredibly generous discounts are coming your way - the details are listed in the graphic above! The other incredibly talented ladies that are sharing more inspiration with you all today are listed below. Please click on through to all of them, as they have some awesome stuff to share with you!

Both of these are really stunning to me because I love how you have used the dies! I've already pinned them onto my dies board to remind me that I don't always have to use a die as it is - hope that makes sense lol!
I love the child's birthday card because it is perfect for a three year old and again because of how you used the dies and sequins.
