Pretty Pink Posh March Blog Hop

Hello! Thanks f or joining me at the Pretty Pink Posh March 2019 Product Release Blog Hop. I am so thrilled to be joining in this month. As you can see by my multitude of cards it was hard just to pick one thing. You cannot go wrong with any of this release and I know I am going to need all of it!

Card 1: For this card I started with the new stunning Spring Frame die. I couldn't resist making a shaker out of it. Just to perfect. I ink blended the background using distress oxide inks in Blueprint Sketch and Shaded lilac and a light misting of water for texture. The sentiment is from another older PPP set Everyday Greetings. A friend of mine has recently gone through some surgery and I needed just the perfect card to send. I think this does the job, don't you?

Card 2: For this one I tried something a little different. I white heat embossed the wreath on some water color cardstock before die cutting. Once it was cut I used a few shades of distress ink to watercolor in the wreath. I chose my colors based on the new Easter confetti mix which I also used to finish off the wreath. Instead of leaving the space white between the foliage I used a light wash of cracked pistachio. Aren't the colors just so springy? The sentiment is also white heat embossed, this time on vellum so that the wreath would still show through. The background is done with distress oxides in Cracked Pistachio and Peacock Feathers with a splattering of the same inks along with some white paint.

Card 3: For this one I did the background in the colors of distress oxides; Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean and Wilted Violet. I chose a few copic colors to match and that's what I used on the butterflies with very simple coloring and shading. The sentiment is liquid platinum embossing. I also embellished with a few of the new confetti mix.

Card 4: And lastly a more pastel card then the previous ones but the colors on this were based around the confetti mix from the background to the eggs themselves. The background is again distress oxides in Warm Lipstick and Scattered Straw. I used a very light wash of watercolors on the eggs, white heat embossed the sentiment and ended with a scattering of confetti.
