Hello friends! It is Dana here today for Day 2 of our blog hop featuring the new release. This release is amazing…full of gorgeous stamps, dies, and of course, embellishments!
Today, I am using the Spring Wreath Stamp Set along with the Spring Wreath Coordinating Die. I started my card by stamping my wreath image with a watercolor friendly ink. I then used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens to watercolor all of my spring flowers. Once this was dry, I used the coordinating die to die cut my wreath.
Next, I began working on my card panel. I used a piece of white cardstock for my card front. I die cut the scallop border with the Scallop Borders Die Set. I then attached this to a piece of plaid patterned paper.
To finish my card, I stamped my sentiment (also included in the Spring Wreath set) in the center of my white cardstock. Lastly, I attached my wreath with foam adhesive to my card front.
PRIZES: be sure to leave comments on each stop. I’m giving away 4 $25 gift certificates to four random comments (2 winners each day) left before March 13, 2019 at 11:59 PM PST. I’ll be announcing the winners next week, so be sure to return and see if you are one of the winners!

Hi, everyone! It’s Marge for you today and I’m so happy to share a card featuring the New Release products from Pretty Pink Posh.
I started by trimming a piece of heavy weight cold press watercolor paper into A2 size, and then I stamped beautiful Magnolia Flowers using Versafine onyx black ink. I water-colored my images using watercolor brush markers and watercolor paints. I also colored a butterfly from Beautiful Butterflies set and cut it using Beautiful Butterflies Coordinating Dies. Once I finished coloring, I splattered with white and dark ink all over the panel and let them dry. Then, I stamped a sentiment from the Beautiful Butterflies set and adhered the butterfly close to flowers using Mini Glue Dots.
To decorate the butterfly, I added some jewels on the wings and body: Metallic Gold Jewels, Watermelon Jewels, and Midnight Black Jewels. Next, I foam mounted the panel onto A2 sized card base and finished off my card by adding some Sparkling Clear Sequins Mix.

Hi friends, Angelica here and today I’m sharing a fun shaker card using new products from the Pretty Pink Posh January release. I am so in love with the new Cupcake Critters stamp set, and the images pair perfectly with the new Celebrate Shaker die.
My first step was coloring the cupcake critter. I stamped the image onto white card stock with Copic-friendly ink. I then colored the image with Copic Markers. I started with the bunny: W5, W3, W1, W00, R00. For the frosting, I used V00, V01, V12, V15. I colored the frosting with V00, did a little shading with V01, then did little dots of colors to finish the rest of shading, and to add texture. For the wrapper, I used Y21, Y23, Y26, Colorless Blender, and V91 for the drop-shade under the frosting. Lastly, the cherry I colored with R24, R27, R29, and R59. I used each marker to draw a line, leaving white space around the stem.
My next step was inking the card front. I used Scattered Straw and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Inks to blend onto Neenah Solar White 80 lb card stock. I started at the top with the Scattered Straw, blending ink down towards the middle of the card front. I blended the same with the Wilted Violet, blending the ink up towards the middle. I didn’t want the inks touching too much. When I was finished, I tapped shimmer water all over the paper. I let the water sit for about 15 seconds, then dabbed the water up with a paper towel. This left shimmery drops all over paper.
To make the shaker element, I ran the card front through my die-cut machine with the Celebrate Shaker die. I then closed the window from the backside with a piece of acetate and 1/8 inch Scor Tape. I die-cut Celebrate again out of white card stock that I had added Stick It Adhesive to on the backside. This made it really easy to attach the die cut to the front of the shaker window. I flipped the card front around to the backside and added Darice Double-sided Adhesive Strips to all four sides of the window. I filled the window with Sugar Plum Jewels and Sugar Plum Confetti, then closed the window with another piece of acetate. I added foam tape to the rest of the back and attached the card front to an A2 size card base. I used thin adhesive squares to add the Cupcake Critter, then used W3 and W1 Copic markers to draw a quick shadow under the cupcake. My final touch was adding a few Sugar Plum Jewels using Ranger Multi Media Matte.
For the celebration, I brought along some very special guests to celebrate with us. Be sure to leave them lots of comments on their blogs and check out their amazing projects!

Hello and welcome to Day 2 of the Pretty Pink Posh 5th birthday celebration! If you missed Day 1, click here.
Gemma here and today I’m sharing a card using the new Pinata Party stamp set. I absolutely love this set!! The images are so much fun and the sentiments are perfect!
I began by working on the background. I stamped the solid pennant image with dye inks, choosing colours to match the new Party Jewels Mix. I stamped two per colour, die cut them out with the Pinata Party coordinating die, then used foam tape to create vertical borders on both edges of my card base.
I measured the gap in between the borders and cut a piece of white card to fit the gap. I used one of the Scallop Borders dies to add a decorative edge to each side. I then stamped a greeting from the Pinata Party stamp set with Versafine Onyx Black ink.
Next, I stamped and copic coloured the unicorn pinata image and die cut it with the coordinating die. I used a clear glitter pen all over it for lots of sparkle.
I cut a piece of gold thread to add to the back of the pinata, then used foam tape to add the unicorn to the white card panel. I tucked the end of the gold thread behind the panel, then added it to the card base with lots of foam tape.
Using the same ink colours as I used for the pennant images, I stamped some confetti images around the unicorn. I then finished with some jewels from the new Party Jewels Mix, adding them around the unicorn and also to the center of the pennants.
For the celebration, I brought along some very special guests to celebrate with us. Be sure to leave them lots of comments on their blogs and check out their amazing projects!

Hi everyone, it’s Marge here and I’m so happy to share my card featuring the brand new January Release with you. I made a window scene card using Decorative Tag 2 Dies from the New Release.
To begin, I die cut Decorative Tag 2 Dies out of Neenah White and red card stock. Next, I stamped Bold Blooms stamp set on white paper using Distress Ink Antique Linen, colored the images using copic markers and diecut them all using Bold Blooms Coordinating Dies.
I used Stitched Borders 1 Dies to make a roof and a wall for my tag. Then I scored down vertically along wavy borders on each die cut to give patterns to the walls.
I cut another window using Mini Storybook 1 Dies out of pastel pink pattern paper which will be main background for my tag and then I assembled those pieces using foam adhesives. Next, I added floral images around the Decorative Tag 2 using Micro Glue Dots. Sentiment was chosen from Floral Hearts stamp set and was heat embossed in white on red card stock. Now, what would expect to see inside the door?
When you open this window, you can see a bunny holding a sweet cupcake. I stamped the image from the Cupcake Critters stamp set and did no-line coloring and then cut it using the Cupcake Critters coordinating dies.
Lastly, here are copic marker numbers I used. Leaves (G29-G28-G07-YG03 ), Purple (BV08-V17-V15-V12), Red (R59-R46-R43-R20), Orange (YR07-YR04-Y38), Yellow (Y38-Y17-Y15), Bunny (E13-E11-E00-E000), Cupcake (E18-E15-E13, BG18-BG15-BG13, R46-R43-R20)

Hello, Gemma here today and I’m sharing a card featuring Decorative Ornaments– one of my favourite sets from the Pretty Pink Posh November release.
I’ve had fun trying different techniques with this set, including watercolour with zig pens, and embossing on vellum. I love to copic colour images, though, so decided to stamp some images with copic friendly black ink and colour that way. I kept to one colour family on each bauble, to keep the tones similar and let the patterns shine out. Once they were coloured in, I die cut them with the coordinating dies. Then I added some white gel pen and clear glitter pen details.
For this card, I thought it would be fun to revisit a design I made (HERE) with the Bunny Friends stamp set earlier this year. It’s still one of my favourite designs – I love the border of images with a bold colour behind. On the right side of a card base, I added a blend of Chipped Sapphire distress oxide ink, flicking it with some perfect pearls mix for shiny droplet details.
I took another piece of card, not as wide as my card base, and blended on Milled Lavender distress oxide ink. I stamped a greeting from the Penguin Pals stamp set with versafine black onyx ink. I find a pigment black ink is necessary for stamping sentiments over distress oxide ink, as dye ink seems to fade back too much.
I added foam tape behind this panel, then adhered to my card base. I arranged the baubles on to the edge of the panel, using some purple tape to temporarily adhere them together. This makes it easier to add the adhesive in one go – foam tape for the right side where they overhang, and some liquid glue for where they sit directly on the panel. To finish the card, I added some jewels around the sentiment from the new Starry Sky Jewels Mix.
PRIZES: be sure to leave comments on each stop. I’m giving away 4 $25 gift certificates to four random comments (2 winners each day) left before November 20, 2018 at 11:59 PM PST. I’ll be announcing the winners next week, so be sure to return and see if you are one of the winners!

Hi, everyone! It’s Marge here with you today and I’m going to share a watercolor poinsettia card featuring the New Release Products.
I started my card by stamping Poinsettias and Elegant Holly onto 140lb cold press watercolor paper using embossing ink, then heat embossed them in gold. I watercolored the images in red and green, then I die cut them all using Poinsettias Coordinating Dies and Elegant Holly Coordinating Dies. White acrylic ink was splattered onto the images to express snow.
To make a panel, I prepared A2 sized watercolor paper, masked four edges then I ink blended it using Distress Ink Antique Linen and Tea Dye. I splattered dark ink and metallic gold ink on the panel and let it dry. After I stamped a sentiment from Decorative Ornaments Stamp on the lower part, I adhered my colored images using glue and foam tapes. Finally I foam mounted the panel onto red card base, then finished it off by adding some Sparkling Clear Sequins Mix and 3mm Sparkling Clear Sequins.
PRIZES: be sure to leave comments on each stop. I’m giving away 4 $25 gift certificates to four random comments (2 winners each day) left before November 20, 2018 at 11:59 PM PST. I’ll be announcing the winners next week, so be sure to return and see if you are one of the winners!

Hello Pretty Pink Posh friends! Angelica here today with an adorable Halloween card featuring a combination of Pretty Pink Posh products and Glue Dots for Day 2 of our collaboration blog hop.
To create this card, I used Halloween Pals stamps and coordinating dies, as well as Halloween Friends stamps and dies. I also used several different sizes of Glue Dots to adhere everything together.
To begin, I made a background by ink-blending Distress and Distress Oxide inks. For the night sky, I used Black Soot and Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks, and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink. For the moon, I used Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide inks. I die cut the moon using the large Window Frames Dies. Next, I stamped out several characters from the Halloween sets, as well as grass from Darling Dragonflies stamp set, and used Copic Markers to color them. After Die-cutting them out, I used Glue Dots to put the night scene together. I used the ½-inch size for the moon, 1-inch glue lines for the grass, and 3/8-inch size for the characters.
I stamped the sentiment, then attached the card front to an A2 size card base. My final touch was adding small stars with a white gel pen.
Prizes: Each company has a prize pack to give away!
The only thing you need to do for a chance to win is leave a comment on each of the design team members blogs! Winners will be chosen at random from comments left on all blogs on the blog hop by 6:00 AM PST on October 23rd. Winners will be announced on the Pretty Pink Posh and Glue Dots blog.

I am really happy with how this card turned out, and how mess-free the Glue dots are. (I tend to get liquid glue everywhere when I use it!) Thanks for stopping by!
