Seeing Stars - Pretty Pink Posh 10th Birthday Blog Hop Day 5

  Good morning! I'm so excited today to be joining Day 5 of the release blog hop for the 10th Birthday Pretty Pink Posh release. It's such a fun one, not surprisingly with a birthday theme - and I was super excited to play with all the cuteness included! Keep reading for more details on my cards, as well as hop and giveaway info at the bottom!

I made a couple of very similar cards for the January release, but using the heart version of these two dies. I loved how they came out so much that I decided to keep a similar template for these cards - and switch up the colors to be a tad more masculine. I cut the Star Cover Plate die from white carstock, and used the main part to create a window shaker, filled with the fun Bright Rainbow Clay Confetti, and backed with some pattern paper to set the confetti off. I added a sentiment over the top, heat embossed in white on black cardstock from the new Sentiment Strips: Birthday stamp set, and die cut it with the previously released Sentiment Strips dies. Then for the second card, I used the Pierced Stars Plate die for the background. I ink blended the stars from the previous card in blues and sage greens, alternating the colors from soft to deeper. I layered them down with a mix of liquid glue and foam adhesive for dimension, and added a good splatter of gold with my Starry Colors palette. Finished off with another of those sentiments, hand trimmed into a banner on this one. Here are some more photos of these two cards:
