Pretty Pink Posh Blog Hop

I have a card today for the Sequin Shaker Blog Hop at Pretty Pink Posh.

If you're not familiar with Pretty Pink Posh, they carry some wonderful sequins in such pretty colors.  I don't own any of them but hopefully will one day.

I made a fun graduation card today, one that I think will be good for my nephew.

There's still time to enter the challenge and be inspired by all the other projects!

Thanks for visiting!

Simon Says Birthday Challenge

It's a Simon Says Stamp Birthday Challenge to celebrate 5 years of fun challenges on their blog.

I used translucent embossing paste for my background, stamped the sentiment onto card stock and placed it in a glassine envelope along with some sequins.

Hope you get to play in the challenge, you could win a fabulous prize from Simon Says.

Thanks for visiting today!

A Blog Named Hero Turns Two

We're having a blog hop to celebrate the 2nd Anniversary of A Blog Named Hero! How time flies when you're getting inky!

I'm the last stop on the hop and you should be arriving from Kelly's fabulous blog here. If you are just joining us you can start the beginning of the hop here.  You will want to hop and comment along the way as we have some wonderful prizes up for grabs from Hero Arts and Simon Says Stamp. The more you comment the better your chances of winning a prize!

I used lots of Distress Inks on my card today, along with embossing and die cutting. I sprayed Perfect Pearls over everything to get a subtle sparkle and to let the ink colours blend together. Love the texture on the balloons from the splotches of Perfect Pearls.

I glued 6 balloon die cuts on top of one another to get a thick chipboard effect, then die cut the balloon shape from the embossed background and nestled the balloons into the recess made by the die.

Thanks so much for joining the hop and celebrating along with us! And thanks for all the amazing inspiration from the ABNH designers new and old and all of our guest designers!
