Hi crafty friends! I’m Michelle Woerner and I am super excited to be a guest designer with Pretty Pink Posh and help celebrate the 11^th birthday anniversary! Today I’m sharing a fun birthday shaker card using the new Party Hat Shaker die set and sentiments from Upright Greetings: Birthday stamp set.

Before I start any project, I always choose my color palette (my color cubes are my best friends) and I die cut all the elements in the die set with all my colors. What can I say? I love options! I play around with all the pieces until I find my favorite combination. For the Party Hat Shaker, I chose the fun teal color and filled it with a variety of shaker bits and sequins from my stash. I chose the same teal color for the hat “top” piece, and I popped it up on foam squares. I accented it with a cute pink flower and yellow center from the adorable Spring Foliage die set.  I chose the “Let’s Party” sentiment from the Upright Greetings: Birthday stamp set, trimmed it into banners and tucked the tops of each under the shaker hat topper.

For the background, I used the largest die in the Eyelet Rectangles die set die cut with white cardstock and adhered it to the card base with thin foam squares. Next, I adhered the shaker hat element down. I wanted to make a custom fun background to complement it, so I pulled out all the die cut circles from the small circle die in the Party Hat Shaker die set and played around until I liked how they were arranged. I LOVE that this one die has 10 circles, so with one pass you can get 10 of each color! Lastly, I added a few large sequins to fill in some gaps with a bit of sparkle.

Designer Tip: I followed the Rule of 3s and used 3 circles of each color which brings a visual balance to the card.

Hi friends, Debbie here and I am thrilled to be apart of Pretty Pink Posh 11th Birthday Celebration! Who doesn’t love an amazing Birthday Collection!

Today, I have the new Dog Holder Die! I am loving all the adorable Holder Dies and this is no exception! I can’t wait to see what’s in store for all of us in the future!

Let’s get started with the puppy, which I took my inspiration from my friend’s new puppy! Die cutting the body from white card stock, and adding a light gray ink to the edges for depth. And the rest from black card stock except the eyes. I used googly eyes from my stash because the black card stock wouldn’t have shown up very well over the black patch.

Next up was the background, with a standard A2 panel I inked blended yellow ink using the Cascading Stars Stencil. Then with the Confetti die from the Big Birthday Cupcake I die cut it out with the yellow, dark blue, light blue, and green card stock from my stash.

With the light blue and the green card stock I die cut out the Present Shaker Die but not the center to make it a shaker. I then attached the present to the panel with liquid glue. Next, adhere the confetti pieces around the present. Making sure the colors were dispersed around evenly as possible.

Then with the Birthday Holder Additions I die cut out the cake, party hat, and the word Wish (3 times) from the card stock. Adhered them together with liquid glue and attached the die cuts to the Dog. But to complete my sentiment I needed the “Make a” from the Birthday Scripts stamp set.  I could have die cut it out with a basic sentiment die. But then I thought how fun would it be if it fit into the Bone from the Dog Holder Die Set. And it did!

I popped up the Dog and the Bone with foam squares. Added some Star Dust Stickles and Shimmer pen to the some of the die cuts. Adhered one large Pistachio Pearl to the center of the bow and two underneath the Wish word.

Greetings Party People! It’s Jill here and I’m glad to be here with you all today to share in celebrating Pretty Pink Posh’s Birthday!

My card today uses the new Layered Garland Stencils. This set includes three stencils, each with a different type of festive banner. After tinkering around a bit, I decided I wanted to focus on using one style of banner in several different colors. I first cut a white panel using the Eyelet Rectangles.

I was excited to use this banner because I have many happy memories of having crepe paper strewn at my childhood birthday parties in the kitchen. 🙂

I blended on the different color inks, shifting the stencil down and rotating it to create different angles as I went along. The spacing for the different banners makes this easy to do, so you don’t accidentally ink in the wrong opening. Love that!

I wanted a bold sentiment to add to this card, and the new Let’s Party Shadow worked swimmingly in a dark navy blue. I love that the die set includes the backer die to hold the delicate die cut words. I added some stitching to the words for a little extra something and adhered them with foam tape.

I wanted to add a little extra party fun, so I reached for the Birthday Holder Additions. The party hat was my first choice and it worked out swimmingly! I put two party hats on top of an inked vellum star from the Birthday Cake Pops die set, to anchor them down.

Pretty Pink Posh also has a set of festive dies that would be fun to use here, either in place of the Layered Garland Stencil or in addition to. That set is called Streamer Dies. (I die cut a bunch of them, so I am looking forward to using them in the future!)

I enjoy how this turned out in the end–so fun and festive! This is perfect not only for celebrating a birthday, but could also be perfect for any celebratory occasion!

Hi friends! It’s Emily here with you today sharing my first blog post as a Design Team Member using the A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E Fox Holder Die Set and the Valentine Holder Additions Die Set.

To create the adorable valentine fox, I die-cut the fox pieces from white cardstock and colored the pieces using blending brushes and an assortment of orange inks for the body and a soft gray ink for the face, ears, belly & tip of the tail. I cut the eyes, nose and mouth from black cardstock and used liquid adhesive to assemble the fox. What a cutie!  And it gets even cuter when you add one of the many options from the Valentine Holder Additions Die Set. I went with a pink heart-shaped box of chocolates wrapped with a bow and a Flamingo Pink Jewel.

For the background, I started with a pink cardstock panel and used the heart layer from the Layered Heart Sprinkles Stencil to add the tiny pink hearts. To create the lace-like bottom of the card, I adhered a short white panel with three die-cut Doily Borders.

To finish the card, I used foam tape to adhere the fox to the decorated background panel and added a pink and white embossed “Happy Valentine’s Day” sentiment from the Valentine Greetings Stamp Set.

So there we are friends, a loveable-huggable fox card for your favorite Valentine.

Hello everyone, it’s June here! Today I’m showcasing a card using the new Love Word Shaker die and lots of other products from the Valentine’s Day release.

I wanted to keep the concept of the card fairly simple, but added details along the way for some more interest. I started by die cutting the Love Word Shaker out of coral colored cardstock so I could add a darker shade of red ink to the edges. I used Festive Berries Distress Oxide for this. I didn’t blend the same ombre on the backing piece of the shaker, but instead splattered the red ink all over. I filled my shaker using a mix of 2 new shaker bit packs: the Love Shaker Beads and the Strawberry Valentine Mix. I love how these 2 match so well! 

I let those shaker bits decide the rest of my color palette. First, I brought in the pink by blending Tattered Rose Distress Oxide onto a panel I cut out using the XOXO Pierced Plate. I also splattered some Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide onto it.

I didn’t just want to have my shaker on a ‘plain’ background, so I also cut out 2 pieces of different Doily Borders to make a decorative border. I got some embroidery thread and weaved it across one of them to get a stitching effect. I adhered the more narrow border just below it for some added dimension.

The only color that was in the shaker bits that I hadn’t used yet was brown, so I picked out one of the many small word dies that are in this collection and cut it out of brown cardstock. I ended up going for the ‘Love’ from the Valentine Cake Pops because it perfectly matches the big LOVE and I really like the scripted font. 

And tadaaa, that’s the finished card! It seemed like I was gonna get a pretty simple card with a big shaker that takes up the majority of my card, but it ended up getting very detailed with all the small details I added.

Hello, Debbie here with a new adorable puppy bucket featuring products from the brand new Valentine’s Release! The whole release is absolutely adorable and I can’t stop making with all new products. 

First I started with the Candy Bucket dies from a previous release to make the puppy bucket. Then with the new Valentine Bucket Additions, die cut out  brown ears and the trim to the bucket. The eyes and nose were attached and the pink nose has Glossy accents on top of it.

 Next up was to make the Valentine Cake Pops with light, dark brown, red and pink card stock. Of course I had to add in some glitter card stock to the cake pops and the bows from the Valentine Cake Pops die set and the Love word from Valentine Bucket Additions. The bows were two colors and off set to add some interest. Once I laid out the bucket and cake pops I realized it needed to be a 5X7 card. 

Next was the panels, I started with a 5X7 pink card stock and did some creative cutting with new XOXO Pierced Plate. With having die cutting plates off set and moving around to make the XOXO matching up. Then die cutting out the largest Eyelet Rectangle Die from a white panel. I knew that it to have the width of the die being 4 inches. So the length will be 5 3/4 inches, partially die cut and then slide up and match up to finish the cut.

Adhere it all down to a red mat, pop up some of the hearts with foam squares. Final touch was adding the Marshmallow Pearls and Cherry Red Pearls to the center of the bows.
