Cards

Hello everyone! Melissa here with you today and I’ve got a sweet Hugs & Kisses card to share with you…just in time for Valentine’s Day.  

I love starting my cards with stencils and Pretty Pink Posh has the most creative selection!  I used the Layered Heart Lattice Stencils to create my background. I then added a couple of die cut Scallop Flag Tags and layered using dimensional adhesive.  I stamped my sentiment using a sentiment from the Decorative Hearts stamp set.  

Now comes the fun part…adding delightful embellishments to dress up my card.  I used the darling, new Valentine Word Scenes stamps and dies to add “Hugs” across the bottom, using my Copic Markers and Crystal Stickles glitter to bring in a bit of shimmer.

I added a trio of layered hearts using the Stitched Hearts Dies, beginning with a vellum layer and ending with a red patterned paper heart. Lastly, I used florals from the Valentine Holder Additions dies and the Big Valentine Cupcake die. They make the perfect, sweet addition.

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

Hello crafty friends! Rachel here with a festive card featuring the new Lucky Animals Stamp Set.

I absolutely love this set! It’s filled with so many cute critters that pair well with many of the products from the new release. I paired this set with the Lucky to Know You Stamp Set and Lucky to Know You Coordinating Dies.

To start my card, I first stamped my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I then colored them with Copic markers and cut them out with the Lucky Animals Coordinating Dies. For my background, I trimmed a piece of green card stock to 4.25” x 5.5” and layered it with a 4” x 5.25” piece of white card stock as well as a 3.75” x 5” piece of smooth white card stock that I had blended with Bundled Sage Distress Oxide Ink.

I stamped part of my sentiment and heat embossed the word “Lucky” onto a strip of green card stock with Fine Detail White Embossing Ink.  Lastly, I adhered my images to my card front with 3D foam adhesive tape for a pop of dimension.

I hope you enjoyed my card today!  Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by. Wishing you all a lovely day!

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, how exciting it is to be back with this shaker card showcasing items from the January 2026 release, including the amazing Xoxo Shaker die. I love shaker cards, they’re just so easy to put together, and they’re even funnier to build when Pretty Pink Posh has such an amazing shaker dies collection and the most beautiful shaker accessories ever. Speaking of which, the Love Is Kind shaker beads color palette is my favorite when it comes to Valentine cards, so I was very excited to create this Xoxo Shaker card.

I started off by cutting a 5,5 x 4,25 inches panel out of aqua cardstock and added a cute pattern to it using the Layered Heart Lattice stencils along with distress inks: candied apple for the hearts and peacock feathers for the stitched details. I mixed copic opaque white ink with water and added splatters to my panel, and then did the same with peacock feathers distress ink. Next I cut another panel out of turquoise cardstock using the largest Pinking Rectangle die, added a word pattern to it using the Love Words stencil along with peacock feathers distress ink, mixed liquid stardust droplets with water, added sparkling splatters to my panel and then white splatters as well. Once dry, I attached my Pinking Rectangle panel to the Layered Heart Lattice panel using 1mm foam squares, and then stuck the whole thing to a matching card base.

Next I worked on my Xoxo Shaker following those steps:

1. I cut an Xoxo Shaker frame out of red cardstock using both dies from the set,
2. I cut a whole Xoxo Shaker panel out of acetate and stuck it at the back of the red frame using liquid glue,
3. Still at the back of the frame, I attached foam strips all around it, following the curves,
4. I poured Love Is Kind shaker beads and Sweet Xoxo confetti inside each letter,
5. I cut another whole Xoxo Shaker panel out of pink cardstock, added white splatters to it, and once dry, attached it to the foam strips to close my shaker.

I cut a large Eyelet Circle out of pearlescent vellum, attached my Xoxo Shaker to it using 1mm foam squares, and then attached the vellum circle to my card using foam squares again. As an extra greeting, I white heat embossed “You’re a sweetheart” from Valentine Banner Greetings on aqua cardstock, cut it into a wavy banner using a Banner Greetings 2 die, and attached that banner on my Xoxo Shaker using a bit of liquid glue behind the fishtail ends.

And that’s it! I hope that this shaker card has inspired you to maybe recreate it or create your own with a different color palette. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Hey everyone, it’s Sophie. I’m so happy to be here on the Pretty Pink Posh blog sharing a card I made for the new release featuring the Lovely Ladybugs Stamp Set.

I started by die cutting a rectangular panel of white card and ink blending the background. I used Distress Oxide inks in shades ‘Squeezed Lemonade’, ‘Dried Marigold’ and ‘Kitsch Flamingo’. To add texture, dimension and a touch of subtle sparkle I added splatters of gold and white paint. While the background was drying I started on the main decoration pieces.

The ladybugs pair perfectly with the florals from the Hummingbird Floral Stamp Set so I stamped and die cut a number of flowers and ladybugs. I wanted to tie in the colours I used in my stamped images with the colours in the background so I chose a variety of Copic markers in shades of pink, orange and yellow. I really love colouring the ladybugs in pink instead of the traditional red and I think they look so pretty!

I added the main floral piece to the centre of my card and then adhered the ladybugs using foam squares for depth. Once everything was adhered in place I then stamped my sentiment (always scary stamping your sentiment last!) and added an extra ladybug zooming around – the heart shaped trail is so cute!

I’m all about the sparkle so I just had to finish the card by adding some glitter glue to the flowers along with a few highlights in white pen.

I hope everyone is loving this release because I know I am and I had so much fun creating this card!

Happy crafting everyone! 

Hi friends, Debbie here with the new Valentine’s Day/St. Patrick’s Day Release! When I saw the new Lucky Holder Addition Dies I knew I had to bring out one Lucky Dog with the Dog Holder Dies!

I started off by die-cutting out a few of the items from the Lucky Holder Additions, because he is so lucky he needs more then one horseshoe in his paws! 

As I wasn’t completely sure on what color I wanted the dog to be. So I started off by ink blending the Layered Lucky Items Stencil onto a standard A2 panel. With the stencil layer A over the panel on a grip mat, I ink blended on green for the shamrocks and in the one stripe of the rainbows, black ink for the pot of gold! Then with the Layer B I applied a thin layer Gold Glitter Paste, set it to the side to dry.

I knew now that I wanted the Dog Holder Dies to be a white dog with a black spot over the one eye. Giving him a little shading with gray ink blending on the outer edges for some dimension. Add a little rosy cheeks and Onyx Pearls for the eyes. 

Next, with the largest Pinking Rectangle Dies I die-cut it out some gold vellum in my stash. This will make the Dog Holder stand out but you can still see the Lucky Items on the panel. 

Then with the Lucky to Know You stamp set I stamped and gold heat embossed the “I’m so Lucky to know You” and die cut out the “Lucky” with the coordinating dies. And for the remaining sentiment stripes I used the Sentiment Strips Die Set to cut them out. 

I adhered it all together and attached to the vellum Pinking Rectangle. Then one the back side I had places to hide the  liquid glue when attaching the vellum to the panel. 

Then final touch I added the clay shamrocks from the Lucky Mix to the center of the die-cut shamrocks. And then add white highlights and Glossy Accents to the nose.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Hi friends! Christina here to share a darling Valentine’s Day card with you featuring two new stamp sets from the latest release. I used the Lovely Ladybugs and Valentine Word Scenes stamp sets to create this super cute design. I colored the images in a simple color palette of watermelon, minty green, and charcoal gray and placed them on a dainty Layered Heart Lattice background. Take a peek at my supply list, and then we’ll get started!

Lovely Ladybugs Stamp Set
Lovely Ladybugs Coordinating Dies
Valentine Word Scenes Stamp Set
Valentine Word Scenes Coordinating Dies
Valentine Icons Stamp Set – xoxo heart
Valentine Icons Coordinating Dies
Valentine Greetings Stamp Set – smaller hearts
Valentine Greetings Coordinating Dies
Valentine Banner Greetings Stamp Set
Banner Greetings 2 Dies
Pinking Rectangles Dies
Scallop Frames Dies
Layered Heart Lattice Stencil

I started my card design by stamping the Lovely Ladybug images and the Valentine Word Scenes with black ink on white cardstock. Then I colored all the images with Copic markers W3, W7, RV14, and BG34. I used the coordinating dies to die-cut the images and did a little fussy cutting on the “Be Mine” word scene to separate them so I could stack them on my card front to better fit my design layout. 

My next step was to stencil the Heart Lattice pattern on a Pinking Rectangle panel with minty green ink. Then I layered this panel onto a coordinating minty green cardstock and finished with a charcoal gray Scallop Frame. I centered everything on a side-fold card base, giving the design a thin white border. 

To bring the design together, I attached all the colored and die-cut images onto the lattice panel. I placed the word scenes first and then added the ladybugs flitting around the words and popped in a few heart icons. My last step was to add a Valentine Banner Greeting heat-embossed on minty green cardstock. 

Thank you for checking out my Valentine’s Day card featuring some of the darling new products from the latest release. Have a lovely day!

Hi, friends! It’s Melissa and I’m here with you today sharing a “Lucky in Love” card that combines hearts and lucky shamrocks in a fun and unique way. Let’s get started!  

I pulled out the sweet Layered Shamrocks Stencils, which are a 2-step stencil, but I only used one of the stencils to create my background.  I wanted a subtle look and wanted to be sure my heart clovers took center stage.

To help center my clovers and give them a bit of a landing space, I used the Scallop Ovals dies, cutting the outer edges from a soft cream and the center from vellum.  I attached them to the center of my card.  

Next I cut three clovers using the Stitched Shamrocks dies and selected the solid image. Hearts cut from the Big Valentine Cupcake dies were just the right size to add to each of the leaves on the clover. I used three different colors and even added in some fun patterned paper to bring in extra character and personality.

For my sentiment, I used the Sentiment Strips:  Valentine stamp set, stamping it on a white heart and then adding it to the center of one of my shamrocks. I then used the Love You Shadow dies for the second portion of my sentiment.  I added some tiny flowers and leaves cut using the Big Valentine Cupcake dies, sequins, and Crystal Stickles glitter to finish.  I can’t wait to give this to a dear friend!

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

Hello Crafty Friends! Catherine here, I’m so excited to be sharing a sweet chocolate-themed Valentine created with the new Bear Holder, Box of Chocolates, and Heart Card Base from Pretty Pink Posh’s latest release! This collection is full of adorable stamps and dies that are perfect for mixing and matching for endless creative possibilities!

I began by stencilling the background using the Love Words Stencil with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide, then layered a soft vellum Pinking Rectangle over the top.

To create the chocolate box, I die cut the Heart Card Base from pink cardstock. I die cut the inner heart with white cardstock and softly ink blended the edges with Spun Sugar Distress Oxide. 

Next, I die cut the chocolate pieces and ink blended with the following Distress Oxides:

Pink: Kitsch Flamingo
Light Brown: Tea Dye
Medium Brown: Gathered Twigs
Dark Brown: Ground Espresso

I added a touch of glitter and heart sprinkles to the chocolates then adhered them onto metallic gold wrappers. 

I glued a small amount of shredded white paper into the heart base, followed by the chocolate pieces. I added a bow across the center of the heart and secured it with a removable glue dot so the box can open and close.

For the bear, I die cut the Bear Holder and ink blended the bear with Gathered Twigs, Tea Dye, and Antique Linen. I added details with Black Soot for the eyes and nose and Spun Sugar for the cheeks.

I adhered the chocolate box onto the card front and tucked the bear behind it. To finish, I added a “BE MINE” sentiment from the Valentine Word Scenes set, colored with Copic markers; R32, R30, RV13, RV11, RV10.

Thanks so much for joining me today! I hope you enjoyed this sweet Valentine! 💕

Hello crafty friends, June here! I hope everyone’s as excited about the new Valentine’s & Saint Patrick’s Day release as I am. I always love bug-themed things, so when I laid my eyes on the Ladybug Shaker, I know that this release was gonna be a good one! 

I think this die would look amazing in traditional ladybug colors, but I decided on a brown-pink-yellow combo instead. Even though it was very cold when I made this card, I must’ve been in a spring-y mood judging by that color choice. I cut everything out of white cardstock and did some ink blending on those pieces so I could easily get the multi-colored look. I love how there’s the option of either dots or hearts to go on its wings, and since I wasn’t going for the look of a real ladybug anyway, I used the hearts. The shaker bits I added inside were older ones, the Chocolate Shaker Beads and the Paradise Shaker Beads. 

I had loads of fun creating this background. I knew I had to include the Layered Ladybugs Stencil that perfectly matches the shaker, but I wanted it to be quite subtle. What I ended up doing is creating a tone-on-tone look using pink inks inside of the Watercolor Oval Mask. I added a bright mustard shade to the outside to bring back the color of the hearts. I also splattered darker yellow ink on the outside for some extra texture. I’m still so in love with both of the Watercolor Mask stencils, they’re a great way to bring a pattern into your card design without having to go for a full patterned background each time. They’re so insanely fun to play around with!

I cut my ink blended panel with the largest of the Pinking Rectangles. I’ve been loving matting my card panels lately, so I trimmed a piece of beige paper to be a bit larger than the rectangle and backed both of those onto my slightly larger cardbase. Lots of little details!

I couldn’t decide on just one sentiment, so I added two! Of course, the ‘Bugs & Kisses’ from Lovely Ladybugs was a must, but I also wanted to use one of the new banner shapes from Banner Greetings 2, so I also picked a fitting sentiment from Valentine Banner Greetings to fit inside. I stamped both of them in brown to bring back the color of the bug’s body.

I feel like I got to use all my favorites from this release on one card! All of the bug-themed products, the new stackable rectangles and the new banner shapes. Valentine’s cards are always so much fun to make, but I feel like these items are gonna be staples for me all year round, even the lovebugs. 

I hope you enjoyed reading about my card as much as I enjoyed making it. I hope to see you again soon, bye!
