I'm so excited to announce I'm joining the Pretty Pink Posh Design Team for the next four months. In the past, I have guest designed for them twice. I use their sequins on EVERYTHING I make! When they started making stamps, I fell even more in love with them. Paulina is such a great designer and such a nice person that I really wanted to work with her products more. So I was super happy when she asked me to join the team for this next season.
The Pretty Pink Posh store is reopening as of today! All of their products are back up for sale after being closed for the past couple months. And they are coming out with a bunch of new products (stamps, dies, sequins, and other embellishments) in March. I've seen them and they are AMAZING! I cannot wait to play with a package that just arrived at my door!
I made a card to share with you today using one of the stamp sets I already had that came out a few months ago. It is called Blissful Butterflies. I had also used this stamp and Die Set when I was a guest designer a few months ago, so I have added the two cards I made with it then below as well. Here is my new card:
For this card, I used my favorite watercoloring technique that I use in almost all of my "one stamp, five ways" posts. I stamped all of the images using Versamark Ink randomly over a piece of Ranger watercolor paper. I embossed them with Ranger extra fine white embossing powder.
Next, I watercolored in each of the butterflies with pinks, oranges, yellows, and reds. I used the paint as opaque as I could so they would be darker than the background. For the background, I used a lot of water and dropped the same colors in here and there mixing them together. I wanted the colors to be subtle, but I also wanted the words and images to show up, so I needed to add enough color for the white to pop.
For the sentiment, I die-cut a piece of black cardstock into a banner and embossed the hello word with white embossing powder. I attached it on the left side of the card. I attached some fuchsia sequins around the sentiment from the Wildflower mix (in both 4mm and 6mm)
Here is one more image of the card:
Here are the two cards I made using this same set when I guest designed for Pretty Pink Posh. If you go to THIS POST, you will see directions on how I made them and all the supplies linked that I used.
Thanks so much for visiting today and thank you so much to Paulina for inviting me to be on the design team! Have a great week friends! Suzy

Congrats on being on the Pretty Pink Posh design team! They are lucky to have you! That first card - random stamping and butterflies together - you can't go wrong with these! I remember your previous post with that stamp as we were celebrating my granddaughter's first birthday with butterflies close to that time. AS always, your cards are awesome. Thanks for sharing your talent. Have fun with PPP!
