BLOG HOP DAY 1
Leanne West <--you are here
I have two cards to share today. All Pretty Pink Posh products used are linked and in bold text. The first card showcases the new Holiday Stockings stamp set. This set includes four stockings to color, two sentiments, and several small images you can fill the stockings with.
Over top a Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide inked background, I've arranged all 4 of the stockings like they are hanging from a garland. The little pine sprigs I used for the the garland are a die from the PPP Winter Foliage set.
Here's a list of Copic colors used for the stockings:
- pink - R00, R20, R21
- red - R14, R27
- light green - G20, G40, G43
- dark green - G28, G46
- brown - E41, E42,E43
- shading on white areas - C0, C1, C3
My second card also features more cute stockings however this time they are die cuts from the new Build-a-Stocking dies.
I began this card by creating the fun stenciled background. I used the Winter Words stencil and four colors of ink. I started with a coral pink color at the top left corner and working down at a diagonal. Next I used red, then a dark green, and ending with a light green. I overlapped the colors a bit so there would be a subtle gradation of color.
You just sold me on this adorable set for I love what you made with it. Thank you for providing the copic colors!
