Sneak Peek: Fall Corners

Hello, Gemma here with a sneak peek to share with you all. I’m using the new Fall Corners stamp set, which is perfect for pretty autumn cards.

Pretty Pink Posh- Sneak Peek: Fall Corners

I stamped out one of the corners from the Fall Corners stamp set. There are 3 pumpkin arrangements in this set, along with additional images. I coloured the image with copic markers, using fun non-traditional colours for the pumpkins. I die cut the image with the coordinating die, adding two more layers behind for dimension.

For my background, I blended pumice stone distress oxide ink over the previously released Woodgrain Circle stencil. I’m using a 4.75″ card base and blended the pattern directly onto this.

I used the previously released Stitched Strips dies to cut some pearlescent card in autumnal colours, adhering them on to my card base. I then added the Fall Corners image over the top.

For my sentiment, I used the new Falling Leaves stamp set. I heat embossed the large ‘Autumn’ word onto pearlescent copper card, using white embossing powder. I die cut it out with the coordinating die, again adding a couple of die cut layers behind for dimension.

I stamped an accompanying sentiment from the Falling Leaves stamp set directly on the card base, then adhered the die cut word above.

To finish, I adhered a few Espresso jewels around the sentiment. These are my favourite jewels for autumn projects.

Sneak Peek: Woodland Thanks

Hello hello! It’s Leica here today and I have a sneak peek of a Thanksgiving card featuring images from the new Woodland Thanks Stamp Set, available on September 13th. These botanical images are absolutely gorgeous and can be used for any occasion. 

Pretty Pink Posh- Sneak Peek: Woodland Thanks

For this card, I cut a 5″ square panel in yellow cardstock and ink blended the bottom with Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide Ink. I also cut a 4.5″ square in white cardstock and ink blended the center with Festive Berries and the top and bottom with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink. I splattered some water for an oxidized effect and added black and white dots using gel pens. I then adhered the smaller panel to the larger one. For the center of the card, I cut a 1″ strip and ink blended with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink and foam mounted it to the pink/red panel.

Next, I stamped the images with Memento Rich Cocoa ink on 110lb white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers – E49/47/44/43/42, G99/46/43, R39/37/35, YR23/18/13, YR07/04/02. I then tucked in and adhered the leaves behind the brown strip. The Thankful greeting is also from the same Woodland Thanks Stamp Set and I love that it has a coordinating die. I cut additional pieces to stack up for dimension. I then stamped Happy Thanksgiving on a strip of yellow cardstock and glued it under the brown strip. Lastly, I cut a white 5″ square, scored at the .25″ mark, and adhered it to the card panel to finish my card.

I hope that you enjoyed seeing my card for today! Stop by tomorrow for another sneak peek!

Sparkly Interactive Halloween Card + Video

Hi, it’s Mona here, and I can’t wait to show you how I made this pinky-sparkly Halloween card with an interactive twist! From my newest video on Pretty Pink Posh YouTube Channel you can learn how to easily transform word die-cuts to the wished shape.

Watch the video above  I  Watch the video in HD on YouTube

I made the glittery background with the Stars stencil on a pale pink cardstock with the Silver Glitz Glitter Gel. In the video I am showing you what is my favorite method for this process.

While the background dries, I stamped the Halloween Wreath and the other coordinating images from the same stamp set with brown alcohol marker friendly inkpad to a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock and colored them with Spectrum Noir Illustrators.

I have used the following colors: CT1, CT2, CT4, GY3, BO1, BO2, BO3, BO4, OR2, OR3, CR1, CR3, CR5, CR7, GB1 GB4, GB6, GB10, RB3, RB1, AP4, AP3, AP2, PP1, FS1, MG1, MG2, BG1, BG2, Blender.

After the coloring I die-cut all the images and I colored the wheel with a pale pink alcohol marker.

Next, I continued with the die-cutting. I made more die-cuts from heavy weight cardstock, because I wanted to add thickness to the wreath and the spiders, in this case the interactive part will be more durable. Then I transformed the Happy Halloween Die-cuts made with the Happy Halloween Script Die. This is a fun way to alter the scripted sentiments, in the video I am describing how.

When it was done, I created the interactive element and added the spider to the circle with fishing line, and created the card front. I covered the glittery background with a piece of vellum, and styled the circle, the sentiment and the other elements.

In the end I styled my card and added some Metallic Rose Gold Sequins to it as a decoration. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.

Hugs, Mona

Pretty Pink Posh: Halloween Cats Box Card

Let’s start! For the design, I ink blended Shaded Lilac through the new Trellis Stencil. I just love using stencils for a patterned paper look and Pretty Pink Posh has a variety to choose from, so make sure to check them out on the website. 

Next, I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo ink, colored with Copic markers, and cut with their coordinating dies. 

Pretty Pink Posh: Halloween Cats Box Card

The images I used for this card are from different stamp sets: 

Cats – Cuddly Cats Stamp Set

Candies, witch hats (fussy cut from the wreath), spider – Halloween Wreath Stamp Set

Cat in Circle, pumpkins on the sides of the box (fussy cut) – Halloween Circles

Small pumpkin bags – Halloween Friends Stamp Set

Sentiment – Halloween Pals Stamp Set

Pretty Pink Posh: Halloween Cats Box Card

I adhered the images with liquid glue and stamped the sentiment onto the rectangle panel in the front. I also made a matching tag using the new Halloween Circles Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies.

That’s all for this Halloween box card. I hope I’ve inspired you to look through your stash and mix and match old and new stamp sets. Happy crafting!

Birthday Monster Trio

Pretty Pink Posh: Birthday Monster Trio

I started by coloring the images I would use to create the set of cards. Along with the Monster Hugs stamp set, I used the Cupcake Critters stamp set, Party FriendsLet’s Party, and Reindeer Friends stamp sets.

Pretty Pink Posh: Birthday Monster Trio

After coloring the images, I started creating the base panels for each of the cards. I started by die cutting the base layers using the Slimline Peekaboo WindowsSlimline Scallop FrameScallop Square Tag Celebrate ShakerSimple StripsStitched Film Strip to create the designs for each of the cards using the same soft pastel color palette. 

For the sentiments on the slimline card, I used the speech bubbles from the Stitched Speech Bubbles die set.

Stretch Your Stencils + Video

Hi, it’s Mona here, if you like stencils like me and you want to get more from them, don’t miss my cool trick on Pretty Pink Posh YouTube Channel.

Watch the video above  I  Watch the video in HD on YouTube

For my background I have used the Hibiscus Flowers stencil set to achieve this beautiful look with various Distress Oxide colors. I have used: Salvaged Patina, Peacock Feathers, Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire and Wilted Violet colors. For the full process visit the video tutorial.

Pretty Pink Posh: Stretch Your Stencils + Video

I stamped cute tiger from my favorite summer set, the Summer Fun stamp set, and now I will show you how I colored it as a bleached tiger with my coloring guide below. Before the coloring I gave a quick heat set to the image, this will prevent the ink smearing. And I started with a grayish green color, because it makes the fur warmer and more natural, then I followed the coloring like on the guide.

Pretty Pink Posh: Stretch Your Stencils + Video

Instead of coloring, I made an ink blending through the Hibiscus Stencil with yellow, turquoise and pink inkpads and blended them together. The result was this pretty rainbow look.

Pretty Pink Posh: Stretch Your Stencils + Video

Next, I continued with the sentiment. I stamped the summer text from the Summer Drinks with a watermark ink to a piece of violet cardstock. Then I sprinkled on it white embossing powder and heat embossed it to get a nice and crisp white sentiment, then I die-cut it. I repeated the same thing but with the Thanks a bunch sentiment from the Simple Sentiments set, this time on an orange cardstock.

Pretty Pink Posh: Stretch Your Stencils + Video

Next, I cut the sentiment, as well as the created background for a 5.25” by 4”. I wanted to add to the card something colorful, so I stamped and colored some surfboards too with my alcohol markers.

In the end I styled my card and added some squeezy lemons to my card as a decoration. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.

Halloween Boo

Hello, Gemma here. Today I have a fun Halloween card to share featuring new and old Pretty Pink Posh sets.

Pretty Pink Posh: Halloween Boo

I began by creating the background. I blended out from the centre using distress oxide inks in picked raspberry, wilted violet, blueprint sketch, chipped sapphire. I then flicked the panel with water to get lots of distress details.

On the panel, I stamped a greeting in clear embossing ink, from the new Halloween Wreath stamp set, and embossed it with WOW Super Fine Opaque Bright White embossing powder.

Pretty Pink Posh: Halloween Boo

From the centre of the panel, I die cut the Boo Shaker die. I’ll keep these die cut pieces for another card. I adhered the background panel to a square card base, leaving a small white border.

Next, I die cut the Boo Shaker die from black and orange card, and twice from white card. Any pieces I don’t use this time can be saved for another card too.

Pretty Pink Posh: Halloween Boo

I layered the two white die cuts together, then adhered them into the space on the card. From the orange die cut, I took the inner pieces and inlaid them in the pumpkin. I then cut the wording from the black die cut and adhered this over the white word.

I stamped out images from the previously released Halloween Pals stamp set, along with the new Halloween Wreath stamp set. I coloured the images with copic markers and die cut with the coordinating dies.

Pretty Pink Posh: Halloween Boo

I attached some silver embroidery thread from the boo word to the spider, then used foam tape to add the images to the card.

I love the fun, bold colours of Halloween and combining new and old Pretty Pink Posh sets together.

Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.

Trick or Treat Wreath

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today sharing a Halloween card that uses the new Halloween Wreath stamp set

Pretty Pink Posh: Trick or Treat Wreath

I started my card by stamping the Halloween Wreath with a Copic friendly black ink. I then colored the wreath images with Copic markers and used the Halloween Wreath coordinating die to cut it out. 

Pretty Pink Posh: Trick or Treat Wreath

For my card panel I used a die from the Stitched Borders 1 die set to create my zig zag edge at the bottom of my white panel. I then splattered the panel with a little paint and set it aside to dry. Next, I began working on the stripes at the bottom. I used the Simple Strips Dies to cut a variety of strips in coordinating colors. I attached the strips to a thin piece of paper, added the white panel and trimmed everything down. 

Pretty Pink Posh: Trick or Treat Wreath

Next, I stamped my sentiment from the Halloween Wreath set onto a piece of black cardstock and heat set it with white embossing powder. I then attached the wreath over the sentiment with foam adhesive for a little added dimension. Lastly, I attached the cute little spice to a piece of baker’s twine and hung it down from the wreath. That little spider just makes me smile.
