Hi Everyone! It’s Melissa here with you today, and I’m bringing you a fun, happy birthday card, using some playful and unique Pretty Pink Posh products. My birthday is just around the corner, and I thought it would be fun to create a card to celebrate!

I began with the Star Cover Plate Die and layered it over a block of white cardstock using dimensional adhesive.  Before layering the two together though, I added color to the base layer that you could see peeking out from each star.  I focused on my favorite pastels in pinks, yellows, aquas, and a bit of green.

Next, I die cut a vellum layer from the Eyelet Diamonds Dies.  I added it to the center of my card, just above the scrunched seam binding bow that I wrapped around the lower portion of my card.

My sentiment was die cut using the Happy Birthday Shadow Dies and I added them to the center of my card to shine in the spotlight!  

I couldn’t wait to bring in a bit of florals and chose to use the Spring Foliage Dies. I love their sweet, pierced details and the variety of shapes and sizes they come in. After I nestled them in a few of the star-shaped openings, I added one last detail in the form of a secondary sentiment.  I used the Party Time stamp set and added my chosen sentiment to a die cut Banner Greetings 3 die. I tucked it under a few flower petals on a fun diagonal.

Happy Summer crafting!

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Hanh and I am so excited to be here with you. Today I have a fun summery shaker card to share with you featuring several products from the latest release: the Summer Drink Shaker Dies, Rainbow Sherbet Shaker Beads, Flamingo Holder Dies, Summer Holder Additions Dies, Tropical Leaves Dies, Sunburst Pierced Plate Die and Summer Banner Greetings stamp set. So let’s get started.

For the shaker, I used the Summer Drink Shaker Dies to diecut two solid glasses (one out of Bristol Smooth cardstock, one out of clear acetate) and six white glass outlines (using the glass die and inside window die together). I ink blended color onto the solid glass with Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed, Ripe Persimmon, Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide inks. Five of the six glass outlines were stacked and adhered to each other with liquid glue before they were adhered to the inked solid glass to create the shaker well. I added some Rainbow Sherbet Shaker Beads into the well before closing off the shaker with the clear acetate solid glass diecut. I topped off the shaker with the last white glass outline. 

Next, I diecut the large umbrella and lemon slice using the Summer Drink Shaker, the flamingo using the Flamingo Holder Dies, the small glass and umbrella using the Summer Holder Additions Dies and the leaves using the Tropical Leaves Dies out of teal, kraft, white and black cardstock. I ink blended with leaves with Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide ink. And I colored the remaining white diecuts with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen. I assembled the elements with liquid glue.

COPIC MARKERS
Flamingo: RV000/00/02/04/06, Y17/38
Small drink: Y13/15, Y17/38 YR04, RV13/14
Lemon slice: Y11/13, Y15/19

For the background, I used the Sunburst Pierced Plate Die to diecut a white panel which was then slightly trimmed down and matted with a piece of teal cardstock. I adhered the leaves, shaker and flamingo using liquid glue. I did pop some foam tape behind the large umbrella and small drink for a bit of dimension. The panel was adhered to a white A2 cardbase (4.25” x 5.5”).

For the sentiment, I stamped the “Let’s hang out” sentiment from the Summer Banner Greetings stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of teal cardstock. I used one of the dies from the Banner Greetings 1 Dies to diecut out the sentiment. It was then adhered to the panel with foam tape. 

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card and are inspired to check out all of the amazing summer themed products from the latest release. Be sure to head on over to the Pretty Pink Posh Shop for more info and inspirations. 

Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Aloha! Christina here to share a vibrant floral card design showcasing the new Hibiscus Flowers Dies. These ink-blended beauties are easy to create and make the perfect focal point for your card design. I combined them with a big, bold greeting, the Large Summer Shadow Die, and to contrast the scripty text and the organic shapes of the flowers, I gave them a geometric background using the Checkered Pierced Plate. Check out my supply list and then I’ll walk you through the steps to create this vibrant floral card.

Hibiscus Flowers Dies
Large Summer Shadow Dies
Happy Summer Stamp Set
Checkered Pierced Plate
Rounded Stitched Rectangle Dies
4mm Clear Droplets

My first step was to create the vibrant ink-blended flowers that are my focal point. I started by ink-blending Distress Inks onto a white cardstock panel. I chose Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin, Squeezed Lemonade, and Mustard Seed, blending them across the entire panel before spattering the panel with not only more ink but also plain water too. This gave the ink-blending some texture and interest. Then I die-cut the flowers and the flower centers from the ink-blended panel, positioning the dies on the areas that I liked the best. 

I used the same process for the leaves of the flowers, choosing Mowed Lawn, Twisted Citron and Pine Needles Distress Inks for the ink-blending.

My next step was to assemble the die-cuts and arrange them on a white Checkered Pierced background panel. I used foam squares to attach the flowers and tucked the leaves underneath, securing them with glue. I decided to frame up my design and used the largest Rounded Stitched Rectangle to die-cut a white cardstock panel and used the negative space as the frame. 

To finish things up, I used the leftover green ink-blended cardstock panel to die-cut the word “summer” and heat-emboss the word “greetings” with white embossing powder before die-cutting it with a sentiment strip. I combined them on my card front and added some 4 mm Clear Droplets for embellishment. Finally, I popped the card front onto a top-fold card base.

Thank you so much for reading and I hope you’re inspired to do some ink-blending of your own! See you again soon!

Hi crafty people! It’s Rachel here today with a bug-tastic shaker party card. I always love a shaker card; it is one of my favorite types of cards. Today I mixed and matched some products from the May 2026 release with older products. Mixing and matching my Pretty Pink Posh products is always so fun! 

Let’s start with creating our card base. I cut a piece of white paper to 6 1/2 x 5 inches. I needed a larger size to fit all my elements onto the card. Part of the bottom I ink blended in green, and the top in a light blue.   

Then I started working on my present shaker by die-cutting all the elements from pastel colors. I used the Present Shaker Die. The acetate I attached to the backside of the frame and adhered to the details while my shaker was still flat. After that, I went around my purple base piece from the present die with thin foam strips. Filled it up with the Spring Breeze Shaker Beads and put my frame on top.  

I die-cut all the elements I wanted to use to create my bugtastic party. I chose Stitched Bugs Die, Caterpillar Holder Die, Everyday Branches Die and the Birthday Holder Additions Die. Add ink blending around the edges to create shading. Assembled all of them and started laying it out on my card base. I like to do this before going in with adhesive because you can still play around with the position of all your die cuts.  

For my sentiment “Wish” from the Birthday Holder Additions die, I thought it would be fun to die-cut it out of the colors I used on my card. So, I die-cut it 5 times, four times out of the colors I used on my card and once out of white to layer my colored letters on. I used my small scissors to cut each letter out of a different color, then used liquid glue to attach them to my white cut cardstock.  

Then it was time to assemble my card; I used a combination of liquid glue and foam tape for this. I always like to have different heights on my cards. Especially when working with a shaker. So, I can have some elements of the same height as my shaker piece. 

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog post. I hope you like these treat boxes and are inspired to make your own. Mix and match your products to decorate them.

Hi Everyone! It’s Melissa here with you today, bringing you some summer sunshine!  I absolutely adore the June Pretty Pink Posh Release and have been creating some fresh, fruity, summertime goodness to share with you. Let’s get started!

I began by using the new Watercolor Strips Masks Stencils. I used a variety of colors to mimic a sunset or sunrise on a warm summer day. I think these stencils would be so much fun to create a plaid background with…I’ll try that with my next card :).

Next, I die cut flowers and leaves using the Tropical Leaves Dies and Hibiscus Flowers Dies. I cut them from shades of green and pink and then added a bit of ink blending to deepen and brighten the colors a bit.  I arranged them in the center of my card in a fun tropical cluster.

To finish my card, I used the Happy Summer stamp set and coordinating dies and added this across the center of my flowers.  I added a second sentiment from the same stamp set and added it to a trimmed banner from the Banner Greetings 2 die.

I had the best time creating this card and have a coordinating reel for it that you can spot in Instagram! Happy Summer crafting!

Hi friends, it’s Jeanne here today. I hope you’re loving the new release from Pretty Pink Posh! It’s absolute sunshine on paper! I’m excited to share my card today featuring the new Hibiscus Flowers die set!

I love bold graphic style and always try to incorporate as much color as I can to my designs. If you look close, you’ll see that my background has three layers of yellow cardstock. The lightest shade is closest to the top, and has been cut with the new Sunburst Pierced Plate.

I topped the panel with colorful Hibiscus Flowers. The die set includes a large, medium and small flower and leaf. The flowers are easy to assemble. I cut the largest die from dark cardstock and then layered a lighter shade for the flower centers.

I adhered the flowers with adhesive foam tape so they’re raised. This makes it easy to tuck the leaves under the flowers wherever you like. My sentiment is from the Happy Summer stamp set. I love how the coordinating die set fussy cuts the mixed font sentiment!

I hope you’ll stop by for more designs made with the new release!

Hello Crafty Friends! Catherine here and today I have a sweet beach themed card to share featuring the Summer Bucket Additions set along with the Happy Summer set from Pretty Pink Posh’s latest release. The Summer Bucket Additions set includes adorable summer accessories that pair perfectly with the Candy Bucket die to create a sweet summer-inspired scene. 

I began by softly ink blending a sky background onto an A2 white cardstock panel using Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink. Next, I created a sandy hill border with the Snowy Hillside Border die and ink blended with Gathered Twigs and Antique Linen. To give the sand extra texture, I splattered diluted Gathered Twigs along with white watercolor across the panel. 

I die cut the candy bucket and accessories from white cardstock, and the adorable bear from linen cardstock. I ink blended using the following Distress Oxides (the nose and mouth were die cut separately from black cardstock): 

• Bear- Gathered Twigs on the edges, ears, tummy
• Bucket- Salvaged Patina
• Sun- Carved Pumpkin, Squeezed Lemonade
• Popsicle- Abandoned Coral, Picked Raspberry, Mustard Seed
• Sunglasses Frame– Carved Pumpkin, Dried Marigold
• Candies– Kitsch Flamingo, Spun Sugar, Abandoned Coral, Carved Pumpkin, Salvaged Patina

For some added sweetness and shine, I decorated popsicle with sprinkles, added glossy accents to the center candy and sprinkled sugar glitter onto the lollipop.

To create the reflection effect on the sunglasses, I ink blended a strip of white cardstock slightly larger than the lenses using Mermaid Lagoon, Dried, Marigold, and Tumbled Glass. I lightly dabbed the Mermaid Lagoon ink with a wet wipe to create a watery texture. I stamped the leaf image from the Summer Sips set onto scrap paper first before stamping it again onto the background using the second impression for a softer look. I placed the lens die onto the strip and ran it through my die cut machine and adhered the lens onto the frame. 

To finish the card, I added die cut clouds softly inked blended with Tumbled Glass and completed the design with a coral colored stamped “You’re My Sunshine” sentiment. 

I hope you were inspired by this card. Thanks for stopping by!
