Hi Peeps! Debbie here for the Easter Theme Week at Pretty Pink Posh! Today, I’m playing with the adorable Easter Bucket Additions die set and many more new and previously released products! 

I was recently inspired by Tammy Stark’s flag and treat boxes. So, I decided why can’t the Candy Bucket Dies be used as a treat box as well! Not knowing that it would lead up to making all three of them!

For my first Candy Bucket Treat Box I went with the pink bunny!

I started off making the Candy Bucket with pink card stock and the Mini Checker Stencil on a grip mat and added a light pink ink to make it monochromatic. Remember to cut out two of the candy buckets, one for the front and one for the back. Next, I die-cut out the bunny die-cut from the Easter Bucket Additions. Attaching the face to the bucket and the back has ears as well. I added in some lashes and googly eyes. I filled up her bucket with the larger carrots from the die set. I found the perfect size carrot in the Easter Holders Additions die set. Then I went through my PPP stash and found the perfect front feet  in the Big Easter Cupcakes die set to hold on to the carrot.   I stamped the “ Hoppy Easter” with the Easter Banner Greetings and then with the Banner Greetings 3 die set I cut it out. With a hole punch I made a hole to be able to run a sheer ribbon through to attach to the handle and make a bow. Next, I added a glitter bow and in the center I attached one Pink Blush Pearl. Make sure to add any white highlights now while it can be flat. 

For the back bucket panel I added one white Pom-pom for the bunny bum! After the whole bucket was made I added Glossy Accents to the nose and set it to the side to dry. 

To make the treat box I made my own piece to glue in between the two bucket panels.

For the second Candy Bucket treat box I made the Chick from the Easter Bucket Additions.

This is the same process with the Candy Bucket and using the Easter Bucket Additions die set. And for the Easter Basket under the wing it is from the Easter Holder Additions die set. I thought it would be cute to have the legs going up to make it look as though it is sitting down.

Then for my final Candy Bucket Treat Box is the Lamb!

The lamb Candy Bucket is filled with flowers from the Easter Bucket Additions die set  as well as more foliage from the Stitched Spring Flowers die set. The small eggs and the bow are from the Easter Holder Additions die set. 

And here is the back of these cuties! I just happened to have a big yellow puff ball in my stash, I made the mistake of cutting it in half though. Liquid glue to the rescue!

I hope you like my adorable Easter Bucket Treat boxes. Now it’s time to grab some chocolate Easter eggs to fill them up with! Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty day!

Hello Crafty Friends! It is Hanh here with you today. I’m sharing a St. Patrick’s Day card featuring the adorable Bear Holder Dies with his arms full of goodies from the Lucky Holder Additions and Decorative Shamrock Dies. I paired these fun dies up with several new products: Lucky Animals stamp set, Lucky Words Stencil and Pinking Rectangles Dies. So let’s get started.

I used the Bear Holder Dies, Lucky Holder Additions Dies and the Decorative Shamrock Dies to diecut the bear, clovers, pot of gold and rainbow out of Neenah Solar White, green, black and gold cardstock. I colored the bear and rainbow with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS: Bear: E50/51/53/33, R000/20 Rainbow: R24, YR04, Y13, YG03, B02, V04

For the background, I took a piece of white cardstock and lightly inked the background with the Lucky Words Stencil and Mowed Law Distress Oxide inks. I used the largest die from the Pinking Rectangles Dies to diecut a piece of vellum that I used to overlay to soften the background. 

For the sentiment, I stamped the “Happy St. Patrick’s Day” sentiment from the new Lucky Animals stamp set with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of black cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed it out with a paper trimmer.I adhered the bear, decorations and the sentiment to the panel with a combo of liquid glue and foam tape.The panel was adhered to a piece of green cardstock before it was adhered to a white A2 cardbase (4.25″ x 5.5”).

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Hi crafty friends, Marine here, I’m back with this cute and pretty card showcasing a beautiful floral wreath and a cheeky bunny ready to properly celebrate the arrival of Spring. Obviously, here I put flowers in my wreath to create a Spring themed card, but you definitely could replace them with Easter eggs for a cute and fun Easter themed card. The Pretty Pink Posh die collection is so diverse that the possibilities are endless!

I started off by cutting a large Eyelet Rectangle panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock, I covered the stitched edges with washi tape and then applied spun sugar oxide ink all over the panel. To match with the Spring theme, I used the Layered Blooming Vines stencil set to create a beautiful floral pattern on my light pink panel. For the greenery I applied rustic wilderness oxide ink, for the flowers I applied worn lipstick oxide ink and for the small dots I applied fossilized amber oxide ink. Next I splattered water on my panel and dried it with a piece of paper towel, I mixed vintage photo distress ink with water and added brown splatters to my panel with a slim brush, and I did the same with copic opaque white ink. When my panel was dry, I attached it to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches light brown woodgrain panel using 1mm foam tape, and then to a white card base using double sided sticky tape.

I cut the wreath out of green cardstock using the Floral Wreath Builder die set. In the end we can see it, and that was the point, I just needed it as a base to glue all the leaves. Speaking of which, I cut them all out of two different pattern papers: a green stripes pattern paper and a green plaid pattern paper. I added white splatters to each of them and when they were dry, I attached them to my wreath base using liquid glue. To add more interest to my wreath, I used the same die as the one I used to cut the base to cut another wreath out of vellum, I added white splatters to it, and then stuck it to my leafy wreath using liquid glue. Next I used the ring die from the Floral Wreath Builder die set to cut a ring out of the same light brown woodgrain cardstock as the card base, added vintage photo distress ink splatters to the ring, and then attached it on top of the vellum wreath using liquid glue. This ring is mostly covered by the flowers but we still can see it between the bunny’s paws.

Still using the Floral Wreath Builder die set, I cut the flowers and started with the pink ones: I cut the large petals out of a pink cross pattern paper, the small petals out of light pink cardstock and the pistils out of yellow cardstock. I added white splatters to the petals and pistils, liquid stardust splatters only to the light pink petals, and fossilized amber distress spritz splatters only to the pistils. I let them dry and assembled them using 1mm foam squares. For the daisies, I cut the petals out of white cardstock and the pistils out of yellow cardstock. I added liquid stardust splatters only to the white petals, and white splatters and fossilized amber distress spritz splatters to the pistils. Again I let them dry and assembled them with 1mm foam squares. I also cut three branches out of dark kraft cardstock and added white splatters to each of them.

Next I cut the bunny pieces using dies from the Big Easter Cupcake die set. I cut the bunny’s behind and paws out of light kraft cardstock, and cut the tail and paw pads out of white cardstock. I added vintage photo distress ink splatters to the light kraft pieces, liquid stardust splatters to the tail pieces, and then assembled the paws using liquid glue and the fluffy tail using a 1mm foam square.

I cut a Stitched Torn Rectangle panel out of vellum using the second largest die from that set, attached my leafy wreath on the upper section using 1mm foam squares, stuck the bunny pieces at the bottom of the wreath, and then all the flowers and branches using foam squares and liquid glue. Next I worked on my greeting and cut a banner out of dark brown cardstock using a Banner Greeting 2 die, on that banner I white heat embossed “Sending bunny kisses” from Easter Banner Greetings, I folded the banner on each end, and then attached it below the wreath using 2mm foam squares.

And that’s it! Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Hello Crafty Friends! Catherine here and I’m sharing these mini Easter treat holder cards created with the Chick Holder and Springtime Holder Additions die sets. These little treat holders are super sweet and perfect for gifting small Easter treats!

To start, I die cut two white scalloped rectangles using the second largest rectangle in the Eyelet Rectangles set. 

Next, I created the background by ink blending a checker pattern using the Mini Checker Stencil and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide on white cardstock. I trimmed the panel to fit the Eyelet rectangles and adhered it in place. 

For the chick holders, I die cut four chick holders from white cardstock- two for the front layers and two for the back layers. I then die cut two circle openings in the center of two chicks using a 1 1/2″ circle die. The front chick layers were ink blended with Mustard Seed and Scattered Straw Distress Oxides. I also ink blended two white circle pieces with Mustard Seed and adhered them onto the bottom chick layers.

I die cut the eyes and beaks and ink blended with Black Soot and Carved Pumpkin and Dried Marigold Distress Oxides. For the cheeks, I borrowed them from the Bear Holder set and ink blended with Spun Sugar, then adhered all the facial features onto the chicks. 

Next, I placed some mini candies into the center of the bottom chick layers and sealed them with a plastic craft dome.

The chick fronts were adhered over the domes. I added rims by die cutting a 1 1/2″ circle with a 1 1/4″ circle inlay, then ink blended them with Mustard Seed and Scattered Straw.

I die cut the umbrella from Springtime Holder Additions and ink blended using the following Distress Oxides:

Umbrella Shaft– Hickory Smoke
Umbrella Panels– Salty Ocean, Tumbled Glass, Wilted Violet, Shaded Lilac, Carved Pumpkin, Dried Marigold
Cap– Spun Sugar

I decorated the umbrella with flowers and greenery from Stitched Spring Flowers. The flowers were ink blended with Scattered Straw, Tumbled Glass, Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo, while the greenery was ink blended with Mowed Lawn. I added pink enamel dots to the center of the pink flowers for added dimension.

To finish the card, I added the sentiment “Joyful Easter Wishes” from Easter Banner Greetings and Banner Greetings 3, layered on vellum. 

Thank you so much for joining me today! I hope you enjoyed my mini Easter treat holders and found some inspiration for your own Easter crafting!

Hello crafty friends, June here! Today I’m sharing a Saint-Patrick’s Day card. I was so excited when I saw the Horseshoe Shaker! The shakers are always the dies I’m most excited about seeing each release and this release did not disappoint. Both the Ladybug Shaker and this one are right up my alley! I can’t wait to turn this horseshoe into a cowboy themed card sometime, but first I wanted to use it the way it was intended: to wish some good luck during Saint-Patrick’s Day!

I cut the horseshoe from light grey cardstock and did a bit of ink blending and splattering to give it more interest. I filled the shaker with the Best Of Luck Shaker Beads and added the decorative stars to the outside. I cut out a bunch of the clovers that are included in the set, did some Copic coloring on them and added gel pen details. I added them onto my horseshoe in clusters of 2 or 3. 

I blended a soft green background using Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide and added some ink splatters. I didn’t use a stencil this time, but still wanted my background to look a bit more interesting, so I also cut some brown cardstock strips to go on the top and bottom of my card. These will act as a base for my Shamrock Border Dies. And of course, I also added ink splatters on the cardstock strips, you know me by now! I used the extra clovers to add on top of the borders using foam tape, I love the extra dimension this gives. I added the same detailing on these as I did for the other clovers. 

I stamped the ‘Lucky’ scripty sentiment from the Lucky to Know You stamp set using brown ink and added it on top of the horseshoe. I stamped the ‘you’re so’ sentiment from the same set inside of the negative space the horseshoe left on the card. A perfect spot!

Quite a simple card, but still very detailed because of all the details I added using ink, markers and gel pen. A good example to show how much all those details can do to make a card design really pop! I hope to see you again soon with a new blog post.

Spring is when the flower sing! Melissa here with you again today and I’ve pulled out some new, springtime Pretty Pink Posh products to create with.  Let’s get started!

My card uses the adorable, new Decorative Easter Egg die as my focal point.  I cut it twice from white cardstock and on the bottom layer, I ink blended soft pastels in pink, aqua, and yellow.  I then layered over the top, detailed layer and watched the colors shine through.

I layered this over an aqua background cut using the Pinking Rectangles die. Next I used the Watercolor Oval stencil to add a washed background in aqua. I then used the new Raindrops stencil to add a bit of soft rain in the background. I love how much detail this stencil adds in just seconds!

Lastly, I added my sentiment using the new Large Spring Shadow dies and then a few flowers bursting forth from the bottom of my large egg.  These were cut using the Spring Foliage dies, which are so full of life and happiness. I layered all of these over a pink card base and even added a few touches of adhesive pearls, sequins, trim, and glitter to finish.

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

Hello Crafty Friends! It is Hanh here with you today. Happy Lucky Theme Week! There are so many fun Lucky themed products available in the Pretty Pink Posh shop. 

Today I have two cards to share with you featuring the super cute Lucky Animals set. Let’s get started!

For both cards, I stamped the images from the Lucky Animals Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Lucky Animals Dies to diecut them out. For this first card, I also diecut a bow using the Beautiful Bows Dies. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen. 

COPIC COLORS:

Dog: E51/53/33/99/35, R20, R22, W5/7
White Duck: C00/0/1/3, Y38 YR04, R000/20
Duckling: Y11/13/15, Y38 YR04, R20
Cat: W1/3/5/7, R000/20
Hats: YG01/03/25/17, Y06, W5/7 Green: YG01/03/25/17

For the background, I used the largest die from the Pinking Rectangles Dies to diecut a piece of white cardsctock. I masked off the bottom and edges of the panel and lightly ink blended a subtle background with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink. A piece of craft foam was adhered to the backside of this panel before it was adhered to a piece of light blue cardstock and then a white A2 card base (4.25” x 5.5”). 

For the sentiment, I stamped the “Lucky” sentiment from the Lucky to Know You stamp set with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of green cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I used the Lucky to Know You Dies to diecut it out. I also stamped the “to be your friend” sentiment from the same set directly onto the panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. 

I adhered the colored images, bow and Lucky sentiment onto the panel with a combination of liquid glue and foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest.

For my second card, I decided to make a fun boxcard using the Scallop Box Card Dies and featuring the adorable little pup from the Lucky Animals set with some lucky elements from the Horseshoe Shaker Die set. I used the Scallop Box Card Dies to diecut the base, two shelves and the back panel out white and blue cardstock. I assembled the box, back and side scalloped panel with liquid glue. 

For the sentiment, I stamped the “You’re My Lucky Charm” sentiment from the Lucky to Know You set directly onto the scallop front panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I adhered the panel onto the front of the boxcard. 

I used the Horseshoe Shaker Dies set to diecut the horseshoe and some clovers out of matte gold and Neenah Solar White cardstock. I colored the dog from the Luck Animals set and the clovers with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS: Dog: E51/53/33/99, R20, R22, W5/7 Green: YG07 G05/19/28

I decorated the box card with the lucky dog, horseshoe and clovers as seen in the picture. I used a clear acetate strip to adhere the floating clover. I love that this fun little 3D box card can flatten to fit into an envelope for easy mailing. 

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my cards and are inspired to create and send out some Lucky themed cards of your own. Be sure to head on over to the Pretty Pink Posh Shop to check out all of the fun Lucky themed products.

Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Hi friends! Sophie here today and I am thrilled to be participating in Lucky Theme Week. I have 2 cards to share with you to celebrate all things “luck” themed! I am featuring the Stitched Shamrocks die set for my projects. Let’s dive in! 

For my first card I am featuring a mix of old and new products. I started by die cutting out a bunch of the Stitched Shamrock dies from various scraps of both patterned paper and solid colored card stock. This project is a great scrap-buster and it came together so quickly you could easily mass produce this design! You could swap out the shamrocks for other shapes like hearts as well! 

For my background panel I used one of the Pinking Rectangles and chose to cut it out of white card stock to keep the focus on the shamrocks and the sentiment but to offer a little bit of interest.

The sentiment comes from the Lucky Animals stamp set. I *love* that almost all of the sentiments in each Pretty Pink Posh stamp set has a coordinating die. To help the sentiment stand out a bit more I layered a vellum banner underneath it cut from the Banner Greetings 2 die set. As a finishing touch I put some Marshmallow Confetti scattered around! 

For my second card I decided to use the Stitched Shamrocks in a different way by just using their negative shape. I took a white card stock panel and cut out 5 of the shamrocks. I set these stitched shamrocks aside for another project and kept the panel and popped it up using foam tape over a panel of patterned paper.

The sentiment comes from the Lucky to Know You stamp set. I used the same Marshmallow Confetti as a finishing touch for this card as well. This one came together so fast and it’s a great way to use up patterned paper sitting in your stash!

I hope you feel inspired, and I hope you have good luck this week!
