Hi everyone, Sophie here and today I’m showcasing a card made using some of my favourite products from the new Spring release.

I started by ink blending a panel of card using the Layered Watering Can Floral Stencils. I think this might be one of my all time favourite stencils as it creates the most beautiful backgrounds and you can switch the colours up depending on what your card colour scheme is. I used a combination of colours that I particularly love for Spring cards – yellow & orange on the watering can and pink & lilac on the potted tulips. I then added splatters of gold ink for texture and sparkle. 

From the large panel of stencilled card I cut a strip about 2 inches wide and adhered it to a panel of yellow paper. I saved the remaining stencilled card for a second project. I always love being able to make multiple cards from one stencilled panel, partially because it saves time!

For the centre decorations I stamped out the ‘Happy Spring’ message from the Easter Word Scenes stamp set. To coordinate with the stencilled images, I coloured in the sentiment with pink, orange, yellow and lilac Copics. 

To add even more Spring details I stamped out some flowers from the Spring Blooms stamp set which I coloured in with the same Copics to ensure cohesion across my images. I added glitter glue to some of the flowers, the butterfly and the clouds. You’ll always find glitter on my cards!

I adhered the flowers onto the card base using glue but popped the sentiment up with some foam strips for added dimension and so that the sentiment really stood out.

This card represents Spring and my personal crafting style perfectly and I had so much fun making it! The Layered Watering Can Floral Stencils are so easy to use and I know I’ll be making a lot of my Spring cards with it.

Happy crafting everyone!

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I’m thrilled to be back on the blog with this bright and cheerful card featuring some of the brand new items from the Pretty Pink Posh February 2026 release. As I’ve already mentioned in previous blog posts, I’m a huge fan of the Shaker Collection, and that Chick Shaker caught my attention right away, it’s such a cutie!

I started off by cutting a large Pinking Rectangle panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock, I masked the stitched edges off with washi tape, covered the whole panel with tumbled glass oxide ink, and then added a fun pattern using the Mini Checker stencil along with broken china oxide ink. Next I mixed copic opaque white ink with water, added white splatters to my panel using a slim brush, and then did the same with tumbled glass distress spritz for some sparkles.

While my panel was drying, I worked on my Chick Shaker and assembled it just like any other shaker item I’ve made in the past, following those steps:

1. I cut a Chick Shaker frame out of a multicolored stripe pattern paper, cut a whole chick out of acetate, and attached that acetate panel at the back of the multicolored frame using liquid glue,
2. Still at the back of the multicolored frame, I attached foam strips all around it, following the rounded edges of the chick,
3. I poured a bunch of Bunny Hop shaker beads inside the chick,
4. I cut another whole chick out of a yellow pattern paper, added white splatters and fossilized amber distress spritz splatters to that yellow panel,
5. When dry, I attached my yellow panel to the foam strips to totally close my Chick Shaker.

Next I added a few more details to my Chick Shaker. I cut two small hearts out of pink cardstock using a Valentine Bucket Additions die, cut the beak and feet out of orange cardstock using other Chick Shaker dies, and picked two giant googly eyes from my stash. I stuck the beak and the heart cheeks using 1mm foam squares, peeled the backing papers off the eyes and attached them as well, and then stuck the feet using liquid glue. For more cuteness, I applied glossy accents to the beak and feet, white blizzard nuvo drops to the heart cheeks, and set my Chick Shaker aside to dry.

I cut all the Stitched Spring Flowers out of colored cardstock and pattern papers, added texture to each piece using liquid stardust, copic opaque white ink, fossilized amber distress spritz, and when everything was dry, I assembled all the flowers and greenery using foam squares.

Next I cut a Pierced Leafy Vines panel out of kraft cardstock, stuck it to a matching card base using double sided sticky tape, and attached my Mini Checker panel on top using 1mm foam tape. I stuck my Stitched Spring Flowers on both sides of the card in a symmetrical way using foam squares again, gave them more interest by bending the petals a little bit with my fingers, and then attached my cute Chick Shaker right in the middle of the card using more foam squares. For my greeting, I white heat embossed “Bright Spring Wishes” from Easter Banner Greetings, cut it into a wavy banner using a Banner Greetings 3 die, and stuck that banner to the Chick Shaker using foam squares.

And that’s it! Doesn’t it feel like Spring already with those beautiful Stitched Spring Flowers and that extra cute Chick Shaker? Can’t wait for warmer and brighter days!

Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Hello crafty friends! It’s Dana here today and I am back with a fun shaker card that uses a few of the adorable ladybug products from the January release.

I started my card by making my card panel with the Layered Ladybugs stencil set. I ink blended the layers with pink, a soft blue and red ink. When the panel was finished I added a few splatters with a coordinating pink reinker. Next, I used the Pinking Rectangle dies to cut an opening in my panel and to die cut a red frame. I then attached acetate and foam adhesive to the back of the opening and filled it with Love Is Kind shaker beads. Lastly, I attached a blue mat to the back of my panel and added my red frame around the opening to finish my panel.

Next, I used the Lovely Ladybugs stamp set to stamp a few ladybugs and my sentiment. I colored the ladybugs with a few Copic markers and then used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I then attached the images to my card with foam adhesive as a final step.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope I inspired you to create a shaker card of your own.

Enjoy your day, Dana

Hello, friends and Happy Valentine’s Day! Brenda here with a “sweet” card to share with a loved one for Valentine’s Day! I love how well these fantastic products work together!!

I started by stamping the cupcake tag image from the Valentine Tags Stamp Set and the XOXO image from the Valentine Word Scenes Stamp Set with Copic-friendly black ink. The images were colored with Copic markers and cut out with the Valentine Tags and Valentine Word Scenes Coordinating Dies. I threaded red and white baker’s twine through the hole in the tag and tied it into a bow.

For the background, I blended Kitsch Flamingo, Lumberjack Plaid and Tumbled Glass Distress Inks onto a panel of white cardstock through the Layered Cupid Items Stencils. I used detail blending brushes so I could use more than one color on each stencil. The panel was die-cut with the largest die in the Pinking Rectangles Die Set. It was adhered to a 4″x5.25″ panel of light blue cardstock and an A2 panel of red cardstock. A panel of vellum was cut with the second largest die in the Pinking Rectangles Die Set.

A sentiment from the Valentine Banner Greetings Stamp Set was stamped onto red cardstock with embossing ink, sprinkled with white embossing powder and melted with a heat tool. It was cut out with a banner die from the Banner Greetings 2 Die Set. The tag and XOXO die-cuts were adhered to the vellum panel with foam squares. The sentiment banner was adhered with a combination of foam squares and liquid glue. I added liquid glue to the back of the vellum behind the die-cuts, then added it to the center of the background. I added Star Dust Stickles to the hearts, arrow and sprinkles to add a bit of sparkle and finish off the card.

That does it for me today! Thank you so much for stopping by!

Have a very Happy Valentine’s Day!
Brenda

Hi friends, it’s Debbie here. The new Easter/Spring release is now in the Pretty Pink Posh shop and I’m loving it! I think I say it with every release how much fun I’m having with the whole release! There are more new adorable shaker dies, holders dies, flower dies, stencils, stamps and much more! Definitely something for everyone!

Today, I’ll be showcasing a bunch of the new dies and stencils from the release. I just couldn’t help myself with building this scene adding more and more die-cut pieces!

I started off with the Chick Shaker die, die-cutting out the frame with both dies together with a yellow card stock and white (4X) plus one acetate for the window. Adhering it all together to make the well for the Pastel Dreams Beads. Backing it with a little lighter yellow card stock, flipped it over since it was sealed. Next, I added the eyes with Onyx Pearls and the beak putting glossy accents to the beak and set it to the side. In the die set there is the cutest cracked egg, I die-cut it out of a blue like a robin’s egg and inked up the edges. 

I should mention this is a 5×7 panel, then with the Watercolor Circle Stencil I placed the Watercolor circle center of the panel applying a blue ink with it. Next, with the mask from the stencil I placed it over the blue watercolor circle  over laying the Raindrops Stencil inking it up with a blue ink. 

Now I die-cut out two of the daffodils from Daffodil Shaker Dies. I chose not to make them a shaker but I did add some of the Creamsicle Pearls to the center of the flowers. 

To fill up my scene more with small flowers, I used the new Stitched Spring Flower Dies, LOVE these new dies! With the previously released Grass Border Die, I had some green grass to be able to tuck my flowers into.

Making sure I had room for my sentiment, I die-cut out the Large Spring Shadow die several times to stack up and have it level with the chick. Then with the Sentiment Strips: Fall stamp I masked off the fall and stamped and white heat embossed the “Greetings” and die-cut it out with the Sentiment Strips Dies.

As I start to lay it all out for my design, I wanted some of the little adorable eggs from the Springtime Holder Addition Dies.

I attached the chick, daffodils, and the egg shell directly to the panel, popping up some of the small flowers with foam squares. Then I started to tuck in the small eggs in the grass and the egg shell. Just like an Easter Egg Hunt!

The final touch was to add some shimmer to the smaller flowers with a Nuvo shimmer pen. 

Do you make many 5×7 cards? I love them to be able to have all that real estate for making a scene with adorable die cut pieces! 

Thanks for taking the time to check out my card today!

Hello Crafty Friends! It is Hanh here with you today. I am so excited to share with you a sweet Valentine’s Day card featuring the adorable Valentine Tags set. Have you started collecting these Tags Stamp & Die sets? This Valentine Tags is the second set that was released. I absolutely love them! You really get a bang for your buck with these. They obviously can be stamped and diecut to make tags for gift bags and boxes. They can also be used to make cards, as I have done today. In addition to those options, these coordinating Valentine Tags Dies are great basic tag shapes that can be used as stand alone tag dies. I can see myself using these coordinating dies with the Valentine Ghost Friends to make a whole set of matching tags. I sure hope there are more of these Tags Stamp & Die sets released in the future. So let’s get started.

I stamped the image from the Valentine Tags Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Valentine Tags Dies to diecut it out. I colored it with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen. 

COPIC COLORS:
Ghost: C00/0/1, R000/20
Hearts: R14/24/27
Pink background: RV000/10

For the background, I used the largest die from the  Pinking Rectangles Dies to diecut a piece of pink cardsctock. I used the Layered Cupid Items Stencil to lightly ink blend a subtle background with Saltwater Taffy and Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide inks. A piece of craft foam was adhered to the backside of this panel before it was adhered to a white A2 card base. 

For the sentiment, I stamped the “Happy Valentine’s Day” sentiment from the Valentine Banner Greetings stamp set onto a piece of white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. 

I used the Banner Greetings 2 Dies to diecut a banner out. I adhered the colored tag and the sentiment banner to the pink panel with a combo of liquid glue and foam tape for a bit of dimension. I finished the card with a few tiny hearts diecut from one of the dies from the Box of Chocolate Dies.

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card and are inspired to try out these Tags Stamp & Dies sets if you haven’t already done so. Be sure to head on over to the Pretty Pink Posh Shop for more info and inspirations. 

Happy Valentine’s Day! Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Hello crafty friends, it’s June! Today I’m sharing a card I had so much fun creating! It features a lot of new products from the spring release, but the highlight really are the Stitched Spring Flowers for me. 

I wanted to create a folk art inspired background with the new Eyelet Diamonds as the center. I cut a ton of flowers and leafs from the Stitched Spring Flowers from white cardstock so I could color them with ink later. No plans for my colors yet, I wanted to get the shape of my pattern down first before trying to balance out the colors.

Once I was happy with the layout, I varied between light and darker soft pink flowers and also colored my leafs and flower centers. I had some leftover flowers that I put to good use as well, but more on that later!

I cut a panel from tan cardstock and used the Watercolor Oval Mask to darken the edges of my card. It’s not very visible, but it creates a subtle oval shape to use as a base for my symmetrical floral design. I also splattered darker brown ink to give it kind of an earthy texture.

I cut a Watering Can Shaker from light grey cardstock and filled it with Bunny Hop Shaker Beads. Both shaker bead mixes in this release are so my style, it was hard to decide! And here’s where those leftover flowers come in! I added them on the watering can to give it a fun little detail.

For my sentiment, I picked one from the Easter Banner Greetings stamp set. I love how there’s a couple of sentiments that are generally spring themed and not just for Easter! I embossed it on the pierced banner from Banner Greetings 3, cut from pink cardstock. This new set includes 2 of my favorite new additions to the banner dies: the pierced and ‘half’ one that goes on the side of your card. I’ve been using these banners so much that it’s fun to see all these details getting changed from set to set, and this is probably my favorite set so far!

And that’s my card, I hope you enjoyed reading about it as much as I enjoyed making it! Hope to see you again next time, bye!

Hello, friends! It’s Melissa here with you today and I’ve got Spring on my mind. I’ve created a fresh, pastel card for you that is all things Springtime.

I began with the darling, new Layered Watering Can Florals stencils and created my background. These stencils are a dream…it’s so much fun mixing and matching colors!  I then layered on a vellum layer cut using the Notched Rectangles dies. I love the softness vellum adds.

An Eyelet Diamond die cut came next in order to provide a base for my die cut Daffodil Shaker. I paper-pieced my daffodil together and brought in bright pops of yellow to coordinate with my background.

I finished my card with a sentiment from the new Easter Banner Greetings stamp set, stamped on a Banner Greetings 3 die cut.  I added in some fresh florals from the new Stitched Spring Flowers dies and a butterfly from the Springtime Holder Additions dies.  

It’s been such a treat to create for you today. Happy Springtime crafting!  Thanks for visiting!

Melissa
