PPP/Altenew Collaboration Blog Hop

Good morning! Super excited this morning to be hopping along with not one, but TWO fabulous companies! Pretty Pink Posh and Altenew have teamed up to bring you a fabulous blog hop filled with Holiday Inspiration and combining products from both companies! There are also two AMAZING prize packs up for grabs, and a special offer at the bottom of this post as well!

You should have arrived here from Agnieszka Malyszek - if you just happened along, feel free to head to either of the Altenew or Pretty Pink Posh blogs to get all the details and hop along!


I was excited to play with the beautiful new Modern Deer Stamp set from Altenew - a SERIOUSLY gorgeous layering stamp!



I couldn't resist making a shaker card, so I paired it up with a die cut from Pretty Pink Posh call Scallop Ovals, and filled it with lots of Iridescent Mini Circle Confetti - one of my favorites for shaker's right now.



I LOVE how it looks like frosty snow in the bottom of my shaker! Isn't it fun?



I stamped the deer with some different shades of gray ink from Simon Says Stamp - the lightest I used for the body, and stamped it with my MISTI. I then used a slightly darker gray, and sort of inked up around the front outside shoulder, the ears, and the rump, then stamped again with the MISTI so that it added some shading. Kinda hard to see in the photos, but it adds a bit of depth which I thought was fun. Then I lined up the layer with the eyes, nose, and shadow on the back (as well as the hooves which are hidden with confetti in the photos), and stamped them again in my darkest shade.


Finished off by mounting that entire front panel on a kraft cardbase - after tying some jute twine around it.


Your next stop along the way is Amy Wanford - but make sure and leave a comment before you leave! There are TWO $100 prize packs from Altenew and Pretty Pink Posh up for grabs. Winners will be picked randomly from the comments left on any of the blogs listed below. Please leave your comments by Wednesday, November 2, 2016, at midnight EST to be eligible to win.
