Brave Lion - June Pretty Pink Posh Release Blog Hop

Hello Crafty Friends! Its that time again, a new release from Pretty Pink Posh! This June release is just chock full of amazing stamps, dies & stencils. Its absolutely fantastic! You definitely need to check out the whole release HERE and probably save yourself some money and just order the whole bundle, ha!

For today's card I am featuring the Zebra from Jungle Friends, the grass from our Nature Essentials Dies and a sentiment from the new Simple Sentiments stamp set. I did simple two color blends with my copics for the zebra to make him a bright and fabulous Rainbow! 

Red: R20, R11

Orange: YR04, YR02

Yellow: Y13, Y00

Green: G02, G00

Blue B02, B00

Purple/Indigo: BV04, BV01

Black stipes: N10, N8

I inked one of the grassy boarders from the essential dies with some cracked pistachio distress oxide and cut it down to just wide enough for him to be standing in some grass so the image is grounded on the card. A simple black sentiment on a while sentiment strip really stands out against the black of the background.

Tropical Birthday - Pretty Pink Posh

Hello Crafty Friends! Im here with a new Pretty Pink Posh card. This style is a little outside my comfort zone but I was inspired by a nursery room print I saw on Pintrest. I love how it turned out! I used the sentiment from Everyday Greetings, the leaves from the Hibiscus Flower stamp set & the lion from Party Friends!

Birthday Lion - Pretty Pink Posh

Hello Crafty Friends! Who is always running out of birthday cards?! You betcha. I never can have enough on hand. I was super excited for all the birthday stuff in this release to get my birthday card stash built back up. I used the new Party Friends stamp set & Happy Birthday to You script die along with the older Hibiscus Flowers stamp set.

I built this card from the background up. I picked my distress oxide in colors Ripe Persimmons over Dried Marigold. I started with a base of dried marigold about halfway down the card. Then  I layered over the Ripe Persimmons over the top quarter or so of the panel for that nice ombre effect. I die cut the sentiment four times out of white cardstock and layered them together for nice dimension.

I just adore this little lion and had to give him his very own card. I tried for a jungle feel for this. I think my son will love it. I used the large leaf image from the Hibiscus flower set for the background images. For the lions gift box I tried to match my copic colors to my background colors. This is where having a copic coloring chart (I personally recommend Sandy's Copic Hex Chart) comes in handy. The Ribbon is YR07, YR04 & YR02. The box is YR02 & YR00. I did a bit of color layering by giving the ribon a once over with the YR00 to bring a little bit of the peachy color back. The YR07 is very orange. For the Lion I used E55, E53 & E50 on the face and body and his mane is E29, E27 & E25. Leaves are BG78, BG75 & BG72 as well as G05, G02 &G00.
