bright summer cards + ppp blog hop day 3

Pretty Pink Posh has an adorable new collection of cardmaking supplies perfect for upcoming weddings, baby showers and other summer fun! And I'm thrilled to be joining day 3 of the blog hop to share ideas with you!

Before I show you what I made, there's more fun! There are 3 $30 gift certificates to Pretty Pink Posh up for grabs! Enter to win by leaving comments along the hop by 11:59pm PST of May 15th, 2024. The winners will be announced on the PPP blog.

Now let's talk cards!

One of my absolute favorites from this release is the Big Celebration Cupcake! This die set has so many adorable pieces and so much potential! For the first card I made, I HAD to turn it into a shaker! I just can't resist a shaker, LOL!

I used the frosting as the shaker window, with a pink ink blending and glitter paste for the background. Oh and these sequins are my current fav for shakers!

I die cut the cupcake liner from kraft and everything else from white cardstock. Then I ink blended the strawberries, orange slices and ants and used them all around the cupcake.

The bitty "happy birthday" is from the Sentiment Strips: Birthday set.

And while I had everything out on my desk, I made this super easy grid card...

I die cut the sunglasses from white cardstock and ink blended to add color. I love that PPP added the detail lines on the lenses! So smart!

And I borrowed the sentiment from the Hedgehog Friends set.

Your next stop on the hop is Debbie Frank and I know she is going to have something fabulous to share!

And here's the whole hop list if you need it...

Thanks so much for hopping with us! Hugs!!!
