Pretty Pink Posh August Blog Hop - Day 1

Welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh August Blog Hop! I'm excited to share some projects that I have created using some of the adorable products from this new release! Pretty Pink Posh is giving away three $30 gift certificates - one for each day of the hop. Leave comments along the blog hop for lots of chances to win! 
This first project uses the Big Halloween Cupcake die set. This is an A2 size card with an inked blended panel with a candy corn background. I used the different sizes of circles from the die set to create eyeballs for the cupcake to make it a little bit creepy!
This second project features the Spooky Mug Additions die, and the Ghost Holder die set. The bats are from the Big Halloween Cupcake die set and the greeting is from the Halloween Train stamp set. The background is blended with distress inks to create a fun spooky sky.
This third project features the Batty About You stamp and die set. Even though I fussy cut out the images from this set it does have coordinating dies you can purchase too. Again I ink blended a spooky sky with a cloud stencil and distress ink. I just love these adorable bats!
Last project features the Build a Monster die set. This is such a fun die set that has quite a few monsters you can create. Perfect to keep your little monsters busy creating. I let my 4 year old grandson play with some of the images I die cut out from this set!
I hope you have enjoyed the projects I have made for this blog hop and got some inspiration! I have listed and linked the some of the supplies I used below for your convenience. If you want to know the specific  colors of inks I used, just leave me a comment requesting that. I have also included today's hop list. Happy Hopping!

    I love all four of your cards. The colors are beautiful. And I loved how you made the first one a birthday card. I have a nephew who's birthday is on Halloween. Thank you.

I'm so happy to be sharing inspiration for the STAMPtember blog party! Happy 15th anniversary!! Check out this exclusive promotion for stopping by today!!👇👇 I have created a couple of projects to share using some of the amazing goodies from the new Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember release. I created this card with an A2 card base made from smooth white cardstock. I then trimmed down a panel of Yupo paper to create an autumnal background using alcohol inks. When it was dry I trimmed it down to fit the card base leaving a bit of a white border. I then die cut a frame from white cardstock and added to the card with liquid glue. I then die cut the new Fancy Just Because die from more white cardstock. The butterflies were cut from matte gold cardstock using the new Ooh La La Butterflies die and adhered with a glue dot in the middle so their wings could pop up. The next project I made also began with an A2 size card base made from smooth white paper. I then trimmed down another piece of
