NOTE: I HAVE TWO BLOG POSTS TODAY! PLEASE SCROLL DOWN FOR MY POST FOR THE GREETERY NEW RELEASE!
Hello friends! Welcome to my stop on the massive three day Pretty Pink Posh Blog Hop! YEAH! Oh my gosh, I have been loving everyone's projects. So fresh and soooo pretty. Today's the last day of the hop. Be sure to go back over to the PPP Blog to see everything! All the new products from the January Release are already available at the Pretty Pink Posh Store.
The Hop today coincides with the January new release, but it is also a birthday celebration for Pretty Pink Posh! SIX years of crafty goodness from PPP. I couldn't be happier for Paulina and her amazing business. I admire her for following her vision and consistently putting out wonderful, creative and fun products for us to create with. Love you Paulina! XO
I have two cards to share today! A Happy Mail card and a fun Valentine Card. First up is some sweet snails coming by to deliver some snail mail! I used the adorable snails from the Pond Friends Stamp Set along with some of my other fav PPP stamp sets to create a little scene. The finished card is a white A2 card base layered with gingham....
As soon as I saw this new stamp set, I love the snails!! I knew I wanted to make a snail mail card! I stamped and die cut them on white cardstock and colored them with Copics. I stamped and die cut some letters and grass for them too. Then I created a stenciled cloud background....
The Pretty Pink Posh word bubble dies are perfect for so many cards!! They're the right size for this 'you've got mail' stamp!! All the elements are attached to the card with foam tape.
Next up is a bright red valentine!!! OMG I'm obsessed with the new Love stamp set! Those cute little elements to color in on the letters! Yes, please! The finished card is a white A2 card base. I layered red cardstock, then vellum, then gingham. (I love layers!)
I stamped and die cut out the L O V E letters and colored them with Copics. I die cut a second set of L O V E letters from red cardstock. I offset the white letters over the red die cuts to create a drop shadow effect.
I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder onto red cardstock and snipped it into a banner with my small scissors. I mounted that strip first and then mounted the letters around it.
I added a few sprinkles of Pretty Pink Posh Sequins to finish off the card. Can't wait to send this one!

The coloring on these cards is fabulous! I like the speech bubble stating "You've got mail!" on the snail card! :) And on your love card, I like the way you incorporated the pattern paper and that's such a cute little sentiment strip! Nicely done, Wanda!

Yes those snails are so so cute. I really like the use of the white gel pen on them too. I often forget to do that, but it finishes them so nicely.

Love, love these cards. The Hingham totally goes with the stamps, and you have the first card I have seen with the pond friends that didn’t use the swans. I think the snails are super cute, too.

I don't believe I have ever popped by your blog before Ms Wanda and so far, I love everything I have seen! I dig your layers and the way you made a snail mail card! HEE HEE HEE, so cute. The L O V E set is one of my favorites and I love how you offset the letters upon the red. Elegant and whimsy all wrapped up together!
