Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Pretty Pink Posh for their 5th Birthday Celebration! I have a couple of projects featuring their new January release goodies!
My first card showcases the gorgeous With Love Shaker Die.
For the background I blended distress oxide inks in Spiced Marmalade, Picked Raspberry & Wilted Violet. I flicked the same distress inks as well by smoothing a bit of the ink onto an acrylic block and picking it up with a wet brush to flick it. I also added a few flicks of white acrylic ink. I popped the With Love Shaker die cut over the blended background and adhered a few jewels from the Valentines Jewels Mix. To finish it off I clipped a silk ribbon tied in a bow.
This next project using the super festive Piñata Party stamp & die set.
I stamped the confetti images onto the background and then created a circle window to hide the hanging twine that holds the adorable piñata. I colored all the images with Copics. This set is so fun!
