EBE SUMMER OF STAMPING RELEASE 3 NOW LIVE

SOS Pretty Pink Posh Release Promo - 26 July.jpg

A darling release, Summer Circles, by Pretty Pink Posh exclusively for the Essentials by Ellen Summer of Stamping is now available in the shop and we’re hopping on Instagram with some FAB inspo and prizes to be won!

To enter the giveaways, follow the hop, which begins HERE on the Ellen Hutson Instagram and leave some comment love along the way!

Below, I’m sharing still shots of the projects I created for the release page with this set—I’m so pleased with how they turned out!

The beach-themed images in the set are so fun! I watercolored the images before cutting them out with the matching die (sentiment borrowed from Good Day) I’ve been watercoloring most of my projects of late, but this would also be adorable if you white embossed the images on bright colors of card stock and kept the same layout!

I ink blended Limoncello ink onto some Color Me Strips for a quick and easy accent. BOOM!!!

These images and the matching dies are just begging to be made into shaker tags! Used these adorable tiny gold and iridescent stars for the bits inside—love how they sparkle! (borrowed and attached the “hanging tag” from the Shaker Globe)

More of those Color Me Strips used here, but scroll down to the final photo and you’ll see this card has a super fun twist to it!

I used the “sun” shaped and circle dies that coordinate with the stamp set to create this window on the front panel for the sunshine to peek through! It’s nigh impossible to see that detail in a flat-lay, so I tried to take an angled shot this way so you could see the fun peek-a-boo effect! AND, heck yeah, it still will fit into a standard A-2 envelope for mailing! (fist pump)

CAN YOU HEAR ME MONKEY CLAPPING???!!!

FUNNY BABY CARD

Carly and her hubby Shaun are awaiting the arrival of a sweet baby boy and we couldn’t be more excited for them!

I just knew I was saving those clear rain drop embellishments for sumpin’ special! (wink!)

The camera couldn’t pick it up, but the pale blue streaks are also top coated with streaks of Clear Glitter Gloss NUVO Aqua Shimmer—so shimmery IRL! I love funny baby cards and this was a hoot to bring to life!

3 SIMPLE AND SWEET NEW BABY CARDS - PRETTY PINK POSH

Welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh Hop! You can see their latest release at this link: PRETTY PINK POSH SPRING 2020

I have 3 darling but simple new baby cards to inspire you with!

For whatever reason, I was drawn to yellow and mint for this trio’s color combo.

Images were white embossed onto white card stock, and then ink blended over the top, before die cutting. Just a little bit of scoring on the base card adds a nice bit of texture and interest, don’t you think?

The little lamb was embossed with Fallen Leaves Versafine Clair ink and clear detail powder onto watercolor paper and then watercolored using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.

“Baby” was die cut 3x from yellow card stock and stacked together; after gluing onto the card, I coated the top with a Clear NUVO Glitter Gloss Brush Pen—wish that had shown up on camera better, but you get the idea.
