Pretty Pink Posh | June Release Blog Hop


Happy day friends! Crystal here with a pretty card post and I am so excited to be sharing this card made with the Geraniums from Pretty Pink Posh. If you have not seen this set yet, you should definitely check it out; I absolutely adore this stamp set.

You should have arrived here from the awesome Jeanne Jachna . If you are lost on the hop, the line up is at the end of this post. 


When Paulina showed us this stamp set, I immediately ran outside to take close up photos of my geraniums, because I wanted to re-create God's amazing coloring! 

I don't know if I even got close, but I am pretty happy about it. 


To make this card I used a light gray cardstock, heat embossed the leaves in silver powder from Simon Says Stamp. 



Then is same heat embossing powder, I heat embossed Best Wishes from the Everyday Greetings Stamp Set 



Next, I splatted white paint. Now for the Geraniums, I stamped and heat embossed a bunch of them on white Neenah cardstock, die cut them with the matching Geraniums Coordinating Dies 


I then colored each one of them using my Copics, and placed them on the card with foam adhesive. As my finishing touch, I embellished with Metallic Silver Jewels
