Easy 4 for 1 backgrounds (Pretty Pink Posh June Release)



Good morning! Today is Day 1 of blog hops celebrating the June 2020 release from Pretty Pink Posh! 


I used the new Woodgrain Circle stencil to create a kind of rainbow. I created 4 backgrounds at a time by starting with a piece of watercolour cardstock cut to 8.5" x 8.5". I taped the stencil to the centre and then blended ink through it, in rainbow order. 

When I removed the stencil, I spritzed the cardstock to make the ink move a bit. Once it was dry, I trimmed it down to 4 panels that were 3.75" square.



Of course I had a lovely rainbow of ink still on the stencil itself, so I spritzed it and laid it down on another piece of white cardstock before trimming it down into 4 backgrounds.

I finished these cards with the adorable new Jungle Friends and Jungle Additions, along with Simple sentiments embossed onto Simple Strips and backed onto Stitched Strips.

Blog Hop Details:

There are 4 $25 gift certificates up for grabs (two winners each day). Winners will be picked randomly along the blog hop. Comments must be left by 11:59 PM PST on 6/24/2020. Winners will be announced on the PPP blog.
