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!

Heffy Doodle and Gerda Steiner Designs Collaboration

  Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Gerda Steiner Designs Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies! For this fun collaboration, I made a slimline birthday card. To begin, I stamped, colored, and cut images from Gerda Steiner Designs - On the Table , On the Bookshelf and the new Heffy Doodle Popping By stamp set. I then cut the largest rectangle from the Heffy Doodle Stitched Slimline Trio Dies in white cardstock. For my table, I used the Ain't So Plaid Stencil and inked with Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxides. The top portion is ink blended with Tattered Rose and I splattered some black and rose gold acrylic paint for interest. I then white heat embossed the happy birthday sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock. Next, I adhered the elements down onto the card. Lastly, I adhered my panel onto a slimline card base.

3D Paper Christmas Trees - Pretty Pink Posh

Hello and welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh October Release Blog Hop!!! Hello crafty friends! I have made the cutest 3D paper Christmas trees using the Pine Trees dies and I'm very excited to share some tips and tricks for making these trees. The Pine Trees include 3 different sizes and I was able to cut 4 of each from an 8.5" x 11" cardstock. The work is tedious, but the end result makes it all worthwhile. Just enjoy the process ;) Once all the pieces are cut, simply score in half and glue one side to the other. The more trees you add, the fluffier it gets. Here is my first tip: use a binder clip to keep the trees in place while the glue dries. I used 10 trees each for these pink ones: I cut some snowflakes from the Winter Mug dies and used them as tree toppers. How about some pretty, pink, posh ghosts? (You like what I did there? Hehe) The ghost die cut is also included in the Winter Mug dies. You can add a little bit of glue or just tuck it in-between the pages of the ...
