Pretty Cute Stamps October Release Blog Hop Day 1

Welcome Pretty Cute Stamps  friends! Today is Day 1 of October Release Blog Hop!

If you came here from Pretty Cute Stamps blog, you are in the right place.  If you just stumbled upon this post and would like to start from the beginning, please visit the Pretty Cute Stamps Blog.

The October release stamps can now be purchase in the Pretty Cute Stamps Store. All of the new items (even the bundle) are ON SALE until 10:00 pm CST on Tuesday, October 13th, 2015. You can find all of these new items in the PCS store HERE.

 

Throughout the blog hop, the design team members will be showing off the new October release now available in the Pretty Cute Stamps store.  I am showcasing the new Nativity 1 6x8 set:

Here is the card I made:

 

Recently, I have seen cards with the images stamped with white onto black cardstock. I think doing this makes the images very striking. I decided to give it a go with this set. I simply stamped the baby Jesus, stable, star and sentiment in white. To make it more vibrant, I embossed with white embossing powder. To add some color to the card, I add a strip of patterned paper to the side.

Now, let's talk about a prize:

One lucky hopper will win a $15 Gift Certificate to the Pretty Cute Stamps Store!  Here's what you need to do for a chance to win this Gift Certificate:
