PFS Collab Hop PBP

Welcome to a fun Collab Hop with Picket Fence Studios (this and all PFS links are affiliate links) and Pear Blossom Press! As you hop along with us, we hope you’ll be inspired to recreate some of these beautiful cards, all featuring your favorite stamps and dies from Picket Fence Studios, and lights from Pear Blossom Press. Get ready for lots of bright ideas, and be sure to comment as you hop along, for your chance to win a $25 store credit!

I’ve made a card with the new Creepy Hollow Lantern die. It is so cool and perfect for trying out Pear Blossom Press EZ lights! I made the card in the shape of the lantern and then die cut it loads of times to make it thick enough to hide the lights. The switch is in the bottom left corner with a creepy green hand to press and the main part of the wires are hidden in a cut out part of the stem of the tree. The sentiment and tombstone are both from the Ghosts of Halloweens Past set.

Here you can see the button pushed and the three lights showing. And yes, I had to have a matching spooky nail polish, because why not! It is so much fun to have a card with lights like this, so I will definitely be making more!

Next on the list is Picket Fence Studios. See the full list below

Every good hop has prizes, right? So Picket Fence Studios and Pear Blossom Press are each giving away a $25 store credit! Comment on this post by August 12, 2023 to be entered to win. Winners will be posted on the Pear Blossom Press Blog on August 14th. (Visit Pear Blossom Press for complete contest rules.)

Here is another photo of the card where you can see that I have cut out several layers of the lantern and glued them together.
