Pine Trees Christmas - Pretty Pink Posh

Hello friends! Need a last-minute Christmas card? This one only took me a few minutes to make and you can even cut some time by using patterned paper for the background and trees. Let's get started!


I first cut a white cardstock down to 4.75" square and ink blended it with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide Ink through the Pinstripe Stencil. I rotated the stencil and ink through it again with the same ink to make a gingham pattern.

Next, I cut the trees from the Pine Trees Dies and ink blended it with Evergreen Bough Distress Oxide Ink. I sprayed some water for an oxidized effect and also splattered some white ink. The trunks are cut from brown cardstock. The largest tree is glued onto the center of the card panel and the two smaller trees are foam mounted for dimension. 


Do you have any Pretty Pink Posh jewels? This is the perfect project to use some up. I've used the new Ruby Red Pearls for my trees - 6 mm for the large tree, 4 mm for the medium tree, and 3 mm for the small tree.

For the sentiment, I stamped Season's Greetings on a strip of kraft cardstock and foam mounted it on the top right of the panel. I cut a 5" square card base and glued the card panel. Lastly, I tied a twine on the side for added texture and interest.

That's all for this square-shaped Christmas card. I hope that I've inspired you to make this simple card. Have a great day!

Pretty Pink Posh February 2023 Release Blog Hop

Hello friends! Welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh February 2023 Release Blog Hop and happy  9th birthday, PPP!  Today, I’m sharing a birthday card and a gift card holder that I made using dies and stencils from the new Birthday Release.  For my card, I started with an A2-sized white cardstock that I ink blended with Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide Ink. I sprayed some water for an oxidized effect and also splattered some white ink on it. I then took a scrap of white cardstock and used finger daubers to ink blend Distress Oxide Inks in rainbow colors. I used Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Lucky Clover, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet. I sprayed water, splattered white ink, and cut the rainbow colored panel with the WISH die. I also cut the flame from the Birthday Mug Addition Dies and ink blended it with Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink.  Next, I stamped the sentiments with black ink then foam mounted WISH and the flame on the card panel. I also added some pearls for inter

Hello friends! Welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh February 2023 Release Blog Hop! For my card, I started with a 4.5” square white cardstock and I ink blended through the Layered Carrots Stencil with Distress Oxide Inks.  Layer A: Dried Marigold Layer B: Spiced Marmalade Layer C: Twisted Citron I then matted this stenciled panel on a 5” square cardstock that I ink blended with Spiced Marmalade. For added interest, I sprayed this larger panel with water that has a bit of white ink.  Next, I cut the dies from the Winter Mug Dies and the new Easter Mug Additions Dies in white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers and Distress Oxide Inks. The blue bunny mug also got a print from the Mini Grid Stencil . Before foam mounting the mug, I placed a sheet of vellum to soften the carrot background and I also stamped the sentiment onto the vellum with Stazon ink.  Here are the Copic markers I used for the mini eggs: BG70, R00, V000, Y11, YG61, YR000 I embellished the card with Pi
