Cards

Hi Friends! Dana here today and I am excited to be sharing two Valentine’s Day cards and treats with you all. I love Valentine’s Day and all the fun crafting that goes along with it! I used the Bee Friends stamp set for all of my images and incorporated many other wonderful dies from the Pretty Pink Posh Shop.

On my first card, I started by stamping the small bees and flowers onto the bottom of my card panel. I used a Copic friendly ink, and colored all of the images with Copic markers. Next, I stamped and colored the larger bees from the stamp set. I then used the Bee Friends coordinating dies to cut the bees out.

For my center heart, I used the new Scallop Hearts die set. I began by using Candied Apple Distress Oxide Ink to ink blend my background. I then ran it through my die cut machine. Next, I stamped the Thinking of You sentiment from the Bee Friends stamp set. To finish my card, I used the Scallop Borders die set to create my decorative edge.

I thought it would be fun to also create a candy bar wrap. I used the same stamp set and supplies so that it would coordinate with my card. For my sentiment, I used the Floral Hearts stamp set. I love the fact that this stamp set included a variety of smaller sentiments that fit perfectly in small spaces!!

On my next set, I followed the same format as above. Though this time, I used Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Ink for my ink blending.

For my treat bag, I began by die cutting the Stitched Tag Die. I ink blended Distress Oxide Ink in Picked Raspberry and Peacock Feathers onto my tag. Next, I added the small bee and flower and another small sentiment from the Floral Hearts stamp set. To finish my treat bag, I filled a small glassine bag with Conversation Hearts and attached my tag with a small clothespin.

I hope I inspired you to create a few Valentine treats for your friends and family! Join us tomorrow for another day of Valentine inspiration!

Hello, Gemma here today to share a card for Valentines, using some new and older released Pretty Pink Posh products.

I love the paper cut look of the new With Love Shaker die, so decided to make this the focus of my card. I die cut it from white card 3 times and adhered them together. I then die cut it once from white glitter card and added it on top for a lovely dimensional die cut.

On my card base, I layered a piece of pink patterned paper. Next, I cut a piece of grey gingham paper and die cut the With Love Shaker die from the centre. I adhered the grey paper on top of my card, then added the dimensional With Love Shaker stacked die cut in the gap.

The Hummingbird Thanks images are the perfect accompaniment to this new die. I stamped out two hummingbirds and coloured them with the following copic markers: G12, G14, G17, RV00, RV52, and RV55.

I die cut the hummingbirds with the coordinating dies, then used foam tape to adhere them to my card. For a pretty finishing touch, I added some Shamrock, Pink Blush and Watermelon jewels to the stacked die cut, matching the colours of the hummingbirds.

  

Hello everyone, it’s Mayra here with you today! This week we will be sharing Valentine themed projects with you. I created a fun set of non-traditional Valentine cards using the adorable Bunny Friends stamp set. This set also has the coordinating dies here.

If you don’t own any of these sets yet you’re in luck! Pretty Pink Posh has 15% off items in the Valentine section!

I LOVE the brand new Scallop Hearts dies and knew they would be perfect for this theme. The idea for my card began with the largest heart which I thought it would be perfect for creating a mini scene.

To get ideas for what I would be creating I started by looking through my PPP sequins. I went through my stamps and chose the images I would be using to create the scene inside the heart.

The wood stump, mushrooms, and tulip are from the Woodland Critters set the dies are also available here.

I then colored the images using Copic markers.

For the bunnies, I used E40, E41, E55, E43.

For all of the orange areas, I used YR09, YR18, YR15, and YR12.

For the greens, I used YG01 and YG17.

Next, I used the Stitched Borders 1 and Stitched Borders 2 to create the clouds and grassy hill. I applied Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide ink to the hill and Tumbled Glass to the cloud border.

I also used the smaller scalloped heart to create a mini shaker for the mini Valentine card set. The sentiments are from the Cupcake Critters and Floral Hearts sets.

Hey there everyone, it’s Lindsay! I’m sure you all are really enjoying the new release! I’m loving all the birthday and celebration themed items since I’m always running low on birthday cards. For today’s card, I paired the Crocus Flowers stamp set and coordinating die set with the Celebrate Shaker Die to make a festive shaker card.

I started with coloring in the images from the Crocus Flowers stamp set with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and blending out the color with a waterbrush.  After die cutting the flowers, I got to making the shaker.

I wanted the shaker element to be an embellishment on its own and really pop. So I started with cutting out 3 of the Celebrate Shaker Die pieces and gluing them together. I then added an acetate sheet behind all 3 layers of the Celebrate Shaker Die. To that, I put foam tape around all the edges of the shaker piece and added in lots of confetti from the Sugar Plum Confetti Mix. I then cut out a rectangle piece just perfect to fit behind the shaker die and adhered that to the foam tape.

I then had my Celebrate Shaker all ready to go. I played with the layout for a while, finally deciding the background needed some ink blending. I added a bit of Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide Ink to the background to make the shaker really pop. I arranged my flowers from the Crocus Flowers stamp set all around the shaker, added a sentiment from Cupcake Critters stamp set and finished it all off with some Sugar Plum Jewels.

Hope you all have a great day!

Hello, Gemma here today to share a card using the beautiful new floral set, Crocus Flowers, which is part of the January release. I love crocuses and the images in this set are just perfect for colouring.

I began by stamping the images on white card, then colouring them with my copic markers. I used V17, V15, and V12, with some YR15 for the centres. For the leaves, I used G17, G14 and G12. I then die cut them with the coordinating dies.

From a piece of white card, I die cut the Stitched Pieces die. I placed it so it die cut off centre, towards the bottom right side. On my card base, I added some colour with milled lavender and seedless preserves distress oxide inks, concentrating the colour at the bottom and fading towards the top. I then adhered the white panel over the top.

Next, I tucked in the Crocus Flower images to the windows on the panel, popping some of the images up with foam squares. To keep the focus on the flowers, I stamped a small sentiment from the new Floral Hearts stamp set with black ink, following the vertical edge of the top stitched window.

To finish, I adhered some jewels from the Sugar Plum Mix around the card.

Enjoy browsing the Pretty Pink Posh Shop full of the new products. There will be more inspiration with the new release and later in the week, we’ll have a three day blog hop filled with even more inspiration!
