Sequin Wreath

It’s official, if I wasn’t a sequin addict before, I truly am one now. After taking photos of the different sequins in the Pretty Pink Posh shop and working on samples with them, I am loving every single color and product. Today I wanted to showcase my favorite of the mixes I put together- the Classic Christmas Mix.

I always love coming up with new, unique color palettes, but there are some classics that are just to good to mess with. Red, green and gold are the epitome of Christmas colors (in my mind) and these colors all work together beautifully. I wanted to challenge myself to create something with all of the colors and then I thought of a wreath. PERFECT!

If you watched the November Craft Haul video, you saw that I got the Dainty Bow die. Doesn’t it work perfect with this wreath? I was a tad confused on how to put it together at first, but then I figured it out. I’ll do a video in the near future showing how to put it together, in case you’re like me. This bow is so cute- I have so many fun ideas with it!

Shop update: there are only 5 days until the official grand opening! I’ve received some more products that I’ll be adding to the store and soon my shop will be stocked full again. It’s been such a blessing to get some orders this last week- it’s really helped me get a glimpse of what items will be popular and I’ve been able to order more items. Thank you to all those who have ordered thus far- it truly means the world to me to get your support and also hear how much you like the packaging and products!

As promised, I have the listing of the 10 special guests that will be joining me on Sunday for the celebration. Each of these gals have such a unique style and I am on pins and needles to see how they use their PPP products. I hope that you plan on joining us for the inspiration and I’ll be having a special and giveaways! specialguests

I hope that you were inspired by today’s sequin card. Thanks for stopping in!


Mark Your Calendars!

shop_As many of you know, I’ve been working on tirelessly on the Pretty Pink Posh shop these last few weeks. I’ve gotten all sorts of fun shipments in and I’ve been up many late nights get photos and things ready for the grand opening. Mark your calendars: December 1st will be a big day here on the blog (and in the shop) as we officially launch. I’ll have some special guests joining along with gorgeous samples, there will be giveaways and I’m also working on doing something extra special for the opening.

If you follow me on my social media sites, you’ve seen these pictures already, but for those who just follow my blog, I wanted to share a couple here as well. As you’ll see, I’ve been having all sorts of fun with the sequins- seriously, it’s like a sequin volcano exploded in my studio. I’ve also been working on samples featuring the other products and they rank right up there with the sequins.

behindthescenesNow I  mentioned above that the OFFICIAL opening of the shop will be December 1st, however, the shop IS open now. I wanted to allow you the opportunity to shop now, especially if there were items you wanted for your Christmas projects, or possibly to give as gifts. I know that some of the items will sell out quickly, so if there are items you can’t resist, I’d suggest getting them before the opening. *wink* Ideally, I would have a studio full of products for the shop, but alas, starting a business is a little spendy and I’m having to do things little by little. However, if things go well, you can be sure I’ll be keeping stock fuller and then the REAL fun can start to happen and I can add more products to the shop.

In the meantime, if you feel like shopping in the Pretty Pink Pink shop and being one of the first customers, that would mean the world to me. I’ve already filled some orders and I absolutely have loved seeing the response. A few people have already mentioned they are loving the packaging and the little details I add to make it a truly “happy mail package”….I hope I can send some more out! Now if you would rather wait to order until you start seeing samples, that’s okay too! I just wanted to give my amazing readers a little heads up so they can have the first pick of things. :)

December 1st will be here before we know it- I hope you’ll join in the festivities! I’ll be back in just a bit with the next Favorite Free Fonts feature. See you then!

Butterfly Notecard Trio {VIDEO}

Hello, hello!

Today I’m going back in the archives and bringing you something I created in the past, but never shared here on the blog. I actually had originally created it for a guest post over at My Paper Pinwheel (hi Thuy!) in July, but didn’t get around to sharing it with all of you.

This year, I’ve been making a conscious effort to send more notes out to family and friends. With that being said, I’ve needed to stock up on cute and simple notecards- you  know, the ones without a lot of bulkiness to them. I was so thrilled when I came up with this quick and easy layout that is a cinch to mass produce.

In this day and age, with technology so prevalant, it’s rare to get a handwritten card in the mail. It’s sad, but true. I try my best to send out as many as I can, since I know it can make even the crummiest days better. Whether you create an elaborate work of art, or just a simple stamped notecard, it’s the thought and words inside that mean the most.

Curious to see just how easy this card is to make? I did a coordinating video that shows step-by-step how to create this card.

I hope that you were inspired by my notecard trio and video. If you give this design a try with some different stamps, I would love to see it. Feel free to leave me a link with your blog link here, or you can tweet me @prettypinkposh or even leave a picture on the Pretty Pink Posh Facebook page!
