Pretty Pink Posh Blog Hop!!


Welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh Blog Hop!!!  Paulina has lined up some fabulous ladies and we are sharing LOTS of inspiration along the way using the newest product Paulina has added to her store.......steel dies! 


My favorite die of the release is this die called Window Panes Die.  There is so much that you can do with this!  Paulina has done a fabulous job of sharing ideas using this die to make shakers and little scenes within the window panes.  Check out THIS POST for the video!

I've used the Window Panes Die to create my own "stencil".  I diecut the Window Panes from cardstock and carefully applied 6 different colors of Distress Inks in rainbow order.  I wanted to spell "thanks" out in alphabet dies but I wanted them to stand out so diecut the individual letters out of the same sponged colors as the Window Panes and added Glossy Accents over the top.
