Today’s sponsor is Pretty Pink Posh! I’m so very lucky to call the owner of Pretty Pink Posh, Paulina, a friend. She’s one of the hardest working and most generous ladies in our industry, and I’m so incredibly proud of the amazing company that she’s created! I had so much fun playing with some of her newly released holiday products – Merry Christmas Script Dies, Festive Holly Dies, and the Holiday Greetings Stamp Set! I was also able to include one of my most favorite Pretty Pink Posh products – the Stitched Banner Duo 2!

INSTRUCTIONS:

I ink blended some Peacock Feathers and Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Inks onto some Bristol Card Stock, and die cut the Festive Holly Dies and the word Merry from the ink blended panel. Then I blended some Worn Lipstick and Candied Apple Distress Oxide Inks onto more Bristol Card Stock, and die cut the Festive Holly Dies and the word Christmas from that panel. I die cut the Merry Christmas dies three more times from white cardstock, and adhered the layers together with a glue pen. I added the ink blended word die cuts on the top layer. I die cut the Stitched Banner Duo 2 Die from some Neenah Solar White 110# Card Stock. I adhered a strip of black and white striped patterned paper to an A2 white card base. Then I trimmed another panel from more white cardstock and applied some Texture Paste and sprinkled some Warm Diamond Glitter while it was still wet to give it some sparkle! I assembled the pieces using foam squares. Finally, I stamped the sentiment from the Holiday Greetings Stamp Set onto some black card stock using some white pigment ink, and heat embossed it with some white embossing powder. I trimmed it into a thin strip and adhered it to the word die cuts. I’ve listed and linked all of the products that I used below!
