Pretty Pink Posh Grand Opening Blog Hop!

Today I’m excited to be celebrating the grand opening of the Pretty Pink Posh, Shop! As a crafter it’s always fun to use embellishments and PPP has lots of sequins and things for you to choose from for all of your creative projects. You even have a chance to win Pretty Pink Posh prize packs—so don’t forget to check the details on how to win below.

I've recently started using sequins on my projects and I love it—so this celebration couldn't have come at a better time. Since we’re on the topic of celebrating I’d like to share my first project using some of the PPP sequins from the, Winter snow, pack which I used to create a festive place card shaker—Perfect for Christmas dinner. I love it because it’s a playful place card and I’m sure something like this would bring a smile to anyone’s face. You could have the shaker place card standing up in front of a place setting or even right on top of the actual place setting. Either way is super cute and I can’t even decide which one I like best. 
Since I was on the theme of Christmas I thought I’d create a cute tag for a gable box, and I used PPP, Festive Holly-days, sequins, and some of their adorable Christmas bells. The sound this little bell makes warms my heart so much and it’s seriously getting me in the mood for Christmas (my favorite holiday).
Now is your chance to win your PPP packs! You can simply leave a comment on this post on or before December 3rd and two lucky winners will be chosen and announced on Thursday, December 5th! For more details on how to win, visit the Pretty Pink Posh blog be clicking, here.
Now on to the next crafty gal in the hop! Laurie Willison is going to share what she created using PPP embellishments, and to view the blog creating before me stop by Leigh Penner’s blog. If you would like to start from the beginning click here!


This hop was so fun, and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words! For the background snow fall, the trees, banner, an alpha bet stamps--I used Lawn Fawn stamps. For the fox, I used a stamp purchased from Paper source. I hope that helps! ;-)

  5. *THUD* Nicole, you have blown me away...again! This place card shaker card is so creative- I love the idea of doing it for a special dinner- that way they can bring something home and also remember the occasion! Brilliant!

    The gable box is out of this world amazing. Seriously? A little bell dangling (I'm with you, these bells make me feel even more festive!) and the sequin additions looks SO cute with this tag. Your talent blows me away.

    Thank you so much for participating in this blog hop for my shop. Your creations have definitely inspired me and I know it will for others as well! :)

  7. I just saw the sequins you used in your "buckets of love" card, and I thought it was such a great extra-added touch. I'm loving how the sequins look on this tag (and the jingle bell is AWESOME). You're so amazing with your creations!
