I wanted to pop in really quickly to announce the winner of the Valentine giveaway I hosted. I haven’t had a chance to read all of the stories yet, but the ones that I did read put a smile on my face. Thank you for sharing little bits of your happy with me!
The lucky, random winner is…..Betty Sue, I have emailed you and also sent the $40 gift certificate, so be sure to check your inbox. Reading your story was so heartwarming- continue on being a shining teacher and making a difference (even to those who aren’t your students).
Thank you to everyone who joined along in the giveaway. Gotta get back to those President’s Day orders….
I’m alive and somewhat on the mend from this illness I picked up from California. It’s been a full week of trying to recoup, resting whenever possible and trying to take on a lighter workload, but I’m still not feeling all the great. I’m back at it, working on orders and getting through the daily workload, but I could really use some well wishes and prayers. The amount of orders I’m sitting on is absolutely mind-blowing, so I’m hoping I can get back to “normal” so I can ship, ship, ship for days on end. In the meantime, THANK YOU for your patience!
As promised, I’m announcing the winners from the 3 day birthday celebration that took place January 8-10. You all made this event even more amazing, memorable and fun than I could have ever expected. I hope that you were inspired and I cannot wait to try to top this event next year!
Let me start out by announcing the two lucky gals who won the big prize packs….
And now it’s time to announce the random lucky winners from the 3 day birthday celebration. Each of the ladies listed below will receive a $50 Pretty Pink Posh gift certificate for leaving comments during the blog hop.
ALL WINNERS MUST CONTACT ME BY JANUARY 23rd, or a new winner will be picked as a replacement. If you are one of the gift certificate winners, please email me so I can send over your gift certificate code.
If you watched the lastest video, you know that I’m working on a special, exclusive mix for my friends at Winnie & Walter. Be sure to mark your calendars for January 30th when this mix will go live, along with some of your favorite PPP products. I’m so honored they wanted to celebrate their event with my products and I hope they have an AMAZING and memorable birthday celebration.
Well, that’s going to wrap it up for this post. So grateful for each and every one of you.
As promised, I have the super lucky winner of the Feathered Friends set (from the giveaway I did in THIS VIDEO). I had so much fun reading through all of your comments on that video- I’m already starting to plan when I can do another giveaway in a video. I truly feel blessed by all of you.
Without further ado, here is the random winning comment!
For those who subscribe to the Pretty Pink Posh Shop newsletter, this is old news, but I wanted to be sure to share it on my blog. As we all know, Thanksgiving is this coming Thursday and that means Black Friday is one week away. I LOVE a good sale and I’ll be stocking up the shop and doing a six-hour sale on that day. I rarely do coupons or sales, since I keep my prices as low as possible, but every now and then a sale is a fun.
Stay tuned for details of the sale coming early next week. Thank you all from the very bottom of my heart for keeping me busy with orders and requesting my products in your local stores. I’m working as quickly as I possibly can on the orders that came on my site and I’m working on re-orders for stores and making final plans with some international stores as well. So many exciting things coming!
It’s time to announce the lucky winners of the Product Release Blog Hop. Thank you all for leaving such sweet comments on my blog, but also for my special guests and design team. They were all ecstatic to read your comments and I hope that YOU were inspired by their beautiful works of art!
If you missed the blog hop, don’t worry, you can still see the amazing inspiration in their posts. They are so inspiring and if you’re on Pinterest, you’ll definitely want to add them to your boards!
Okay, now it’s time to announce the lucky winners of the Product Release Blog Hop. It was SO fun to see all of your comments, read your excitement and also to fill the orders of those who ordered as soon as they released. Here are the two lucky gals that won a $25 PPP gift certificate…..
If you are one of the winners, please email me so I can send over your gift certificate code. Click the “contact” button at the top of the blog and send over your info so you can start to shop!
As I mentioned yesterday, I’ll be back later this week with a more heartfelt post. I’m still trying to decide what I want to write about. If you have suggestions, let me know!
I hope that you all had a terrific World Card Making Day and a wonderful weekend. Today I’m announcing the winner of the new release products– yes, the one who won all of the new goodies I released this month.
Teresa, I have emailed you. Please send over your mailing information and I’ll get your products shipped off to you.
Speaking of new products… you may be wondering if the design team will be sharing inspiration with the new dies. Yes, they will be! On Friday I’m having the Product Release Blog Hop and we’ll be showing samples with the new dies from the team AND four amazing guests. Here’s just a teeny snapshot at some of the inspiration that is coming on Thursday.
If you haven’t picked up the new dies yet, there are still some in stock! Plus, I’m getting another shipment in a day or two. These dies are so versatile and if you have crafty friends, they would make perfect Christmas presents!
Have you had a weekend pass you by and you felt like you accomplished a lot? That’s what happened to me this weekend. Honestly, this feeling hasn’t happened in SO long (due to my health issues and low energy), but things are starting to look up and I can’t wait to tackle even more! Watch out…. once I’m closer to full health, I have all sorts of plans and ideas that I’ve been putting on hold!
Today I have another card to share using the Seattle Christmas set, along with the newly purchased Snow Day set from Lawn Fawn. Many of you know that I love mixing and matching my stamp sets and I was pleasantly surprised to see how perfectly these ones go together.
We are about 2 1/2 weeks away from my October release, but I couldn’t resist adding one of the new products to this card. Can you spot it? These next few weeks, I’ll be teasing the new goodies big time… I hope you all saved up since I didn’t release anything this month! *wink*
I wanted to announce the lucky winner of the THREE Impress stamp sets from THIS giveaway. It was so fun to read all of your favorite holidays and the reasons why you chose that holiday. It also made me happy that you enjoyed the cards I made in that post…. if you’re local, you just might see them in an Impress location soon!
Christy Dyson, please contact me with your mailing address. You’re going to have so much fun creating this upcoming Christmas season! Alright, sweet friends, that’s going to wrap up today’s post. I hope you have an awesome Monday!
It feels good to be free from the dreaded flu and up and at ’em again. I knocked out a lot of the orders I received and I’m working on the rest, along with getting some more products out to your favorite retailers. It’s going to be a busy weekend, but dare I say I’m looking forward to getting lots tackled on my to-do list?
I wanted to thank you all for welcoming Nichol into the PPP family. She is such a talented gal and a sweetheart to boot! Here’s just the beginning of what she’s done… I’m so excited to see what she has up her sleeves for us in the future!
Okay, now I know you’re all curious as to who won the $50 gift certificate prize for the matching game. Well, I thought I would share the answers first and then we’ll get to the winner.
Okay, now let’s get to the winner. I randomly picked a winner from the correct guesses and the lucky gal is….
Thank you for participating in this game. I had so much fun digging through the design team samples- I just might have to do this game again in the future! If you haven’t already, be sure to like the Pretty Pink Posh Facebook page– I share a variety of the design team samples as inspiration!
Be sure to come back on Monday. I’ll have a post full of inspiration using some stamps I recently received and let’s just say, I heard there’s also a giveaway. See you then!
Today I don’t have any cards to share (of my own), but I wanted to announce the winners of the Product Release Blog Hop, along with snapshots of some of the cards. The design team did such a wonderful job and the special guests BLEW ME AWAY!
If you missed the blog hop, don’t worry, you can still see the amazing inspiration in their posts. They are so inspiring and if you’re on Pinterest, you’ll definitely want to add them to your boards!
As many of you know, I sold out of the new dies within 48 hours (despite stocking up 3x more than usual). If you were hoping to get one or both of the new dies, or possibly the old dies, they’ll be restocked on Wednesday!

Congratulations to Suzanne! I have gone ahead and emailed you, Suzanne, for your mailing address; please be sure to look in your Inbox.
I’ll be back on Monday with the next installment of the Design Teams 101 series and then we will be DAYS away from the blog hop that YOU can be a part of. If you missed the news of that blog hop, CLICK HERE. It’s going to be all sorts of fun and I really hope you’ll join us.
I wanted to start off today’s post by saying a giant thank you to YOU, my amazing readers. I recently hosted the Birthday Giveaways and these were some of the biggest ones I’ve hosted thus far and I have YOU all to thank for that. Every person that purchases via my Simon Says Stamp or Ellen Hutson links, or sends in donations via Paypal, help make these giveaways possible. To run a successful blog, it requires quite a bit of hosting/ security fees, so these funds help keep this blog thriving and the giveaways coming!
I know many of you are waiting on pins and needles to see if you were a lucky winner. Thanks to many handy dandy program, it randomly selected the winners and here are the three lucky gals….
To these lucky gals, I have sent you emails, so be sure to check your inbox. If I don’t get a response within a week, I’ll pick another winner for the unclaimed giveaway(s). If these are your friends, be sure to let them know!
It may seem like things are quiet here on the blog, but not to worry, that means I’m working on LOTS of things behind the scenes. Be sure to mark your calendars, on August 1st it’ll be a busy day here on the blog. I’ll showcase the brand new products with a coordinating video, reveal the theme of the blog hop that YOU can participate in and who knows, there might be some other surprises along the way.
Any guesses on what the theme might be from the graphic above? I shared this photo on my social media sites yesterday and I spotted the correct answer somewhere. If you missed the Sequin Shaker blog hop, you won’t want to miss this one! I have some amazing sponsors, prizes and special guests scheduled and it just wouldn’t be the same without YOU there.
I hope you all are having a fabulous week. I’ll chat with you soon!
I had hoped to have this post go live yesterday, but this week has been rough on me health wise. On the outside, for those who don’t know me, life may look like rainbows and butterflies for me, but that’s far from the truth. Many of you know that I have been dealing with ongoing health issues since my car accident 21 months ago and recently I’ve hit another rough patch.(The latest health update is HERE) It’s been frustrating, to say the least. I’m going to try eliminating foods again and we’ll see if that helps. Thank you to those who have emailed and sent well wishes in the form of cards and gift cards in the mail or even Paypal donations. It truly means a lot to me.
Okay, enough of those things…. let’s get to today’s card and a sneak peek! This card is one many of you will recognize- I featured it in my April 2014 Craft Favorites video.
Lately I have been on this kick of creating “mini scenes” on my cards and these little “windows” are perfect for doing just that. You could do it comic book style and have each square be individual pictures, or you can have the scene go landscape style. Both ways are SUPER cute and you can be sure I’m making lots more cards in this style.
For those who have purchased the 4mm sequins, I hope that you’ve been enjoying them as much as I have been! I LOVE this smaller size and it works well with the 6mm sequins. If you’ve been wanting to order some and you shop at Ellen Hutson, I’m happy to announce that ALL of them are now available there!
On my Instagram and Facebook page yesterday, I posted a sneak peek of a card I just made with some new products coming in June. Can you spot anything new from this picture? As we get closer to June, I’ll post more sneak peeks and let you in on something that’s happening on June 5th!
I wanted to formally announce the winner of the $25 gift certificate giveaway I hosted last week. The winner was Melissa K. Dehne! I have emailed you Melissa…be sure to check your inbox!
That’s going to do it for this post. Again, thank you to all of you who have sent well wishes and prayers. I am very, very grateful.
