Cards

Hello crafty friends! It’s Yoonsun here to share with you my Christmas card with the new Joy stamp set & coordinating die set along with other new holiday goodies.

I started by heat embossing the word “JOY” & Santa hat in gold onto watercolour paper. I partially coloured the stamped images with Festive Berries & Evergreen Bough Distress inks, and then die cut it with the matching dies.

I die cut the poinsettia parts from watercolour paper, applied Distress inks onto them using Blender Brush, and then glued the layers together using foam tape. 

Behind the “JOY”, I made a partial stencil background with the Leaves & Berries stencil. I placed the stencil in place over the watercolour paper panel, applied red & green Distress inks using Blender Brush, and then lightly brushed over all images with water brush.

Finally I mounted all elements as shown in the picture using foam tape, then embellished with a few clear droplets.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Be sure to visit tomorrow for another sneak peek of the October 15th release!

Hello, Gemma here today to share a card using the new Winter Wreath stamp set, which is part of the October 15th release. This beautiful set makes it easy to create quick and elegant holiday cards. 

I began with a piece of blue card, cut slightly smaller than my card base. I heat embossed the Winter Wreath in gold on the card, then white heat embossed the sentiment from the set in the centre of the wreath.

The embossing looks beautiful as is, so you can stop there, but I decided to add some colour to the wreath using my coloured pencils. I added a layer of white pencil first, then went over the top with other colours. The white layer keeps the colours vibrant on the darker card.

I adhered the panel on a white card base, then die cut a white glitter bow from the Twine & Bows die set to add to the wreath.

To add a little sparkle, I adhered some watermelon, pink blush, pearl white and sparkling clear jewels around the wreath, along with some of the new Celebration Confetti Mix to finish.

Stop by tomorrow for a brand new sneak peek of the new release!

Hi Friends, Angelica here and I am so excited to share with you a sneak peek of the new Holiday Signs Stamp set. These little critters are ready for Christmas, and they brought Santa along too!

I stamped these friends onto white card stock, and colored them with Copic Markers. I stamped a sentiment from the stamp set onto each sign with embossing ink, and heat-embossed them with silver embossing powder. I used the coordinating dies to die-cut them.

For the background, I blended Chipped Sapphire and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide inks onto watercolor paper. I sprayed the paper with water, and used a paper towel to dab up the water. I then splattered watered-down acrylic paint for falling snow. I trimmed the panel, then added it to a card base with double-sided adhesive.

I cut hills from white pearlescent paper, and softly blended Broken China Distress Oxide ink on the edges. I attached the hills to the card, and added the friends with thin foam squares. I added Sparkling Clear Jewels to finish the card.

These little friends are so cheerful, and will put a smile on anyone’s face. That’s all that I have for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Friends- Angelica here with a fun Halloween card to share for the last day of Halloween week. All products in the Halloween section on the PPP shop is 15% off through tonight. 

I love using the color purple for Halloween cards, and that’s exactly what I did here. I taped off the bottom of a panel of Bristol Smooth Paper, and blended Milled Lavender, Dusty Concord, and Black Soot Distress Oxide inks for the sky. I flipped the mask around and blended Forest Moss Distress ink for the ground. I trimmed the panel down, then stamped and white heat-embossed a sentiment from Halloween Friends stamp set. I then stamped the spider from the same set in black ink, and heat embossed clear embossing powder to make the spider shine. I attached then panel to a card base with foam adhesive. 

Next, I did a lot of Copic coloring. I pulled stamps from several sets to build my Halloween scene. I started with the little critters in costume and candy bucket from the Halloween Friends stamp set. I used the coordinating dies to die-cut them. The little pumpkin is from the Halloween Pals stamp set, and coordinating die. I stamped BOO! from Halloween Friends onto the Scarecrow’s sign before die-cutting him. My last colored image is the pumpkin and rabbit from the Pumpkin Patch Friends stamp set. I made the pumpkin into a jack-o-latern before die-cutting it. My last die-cut was the Spooky Fence.

I glued the fence to the card, and added highlights with a white gel pen. I attached each image with thin foam squares. To finish the card, I added three Glossy Black Jewels.

I hope I have given you some creative ideas for your next Halloween card! That’s all that I have for today. Thanks for stopping by.

Hi Everyone! It’s Melody here with you today for Day 6 of Halloween Theme Week. I have a Halloween card to share with you that was created with a friend or older child in mind. Even though my girls are not “kids” anymore, I still like to give them a card and a sweet treat! I used a combination of the Autumn Wreath Stamp Set and Autumn Wreath Coordinating Dies and the Boo Stamp Set and Boo Coordinating Dies to create my Halloween Wreath. 

With the Autumn Wreath Stamp Set and Autumn Wreath Coordinating Dies I die cut the wreath to used for the base. Then I stamped and colored a variety of leaves and flowers and die cut with the coordinating dies. 

Then with the Boo Stamp Set and Boo Coordinating Dies I stamped and colored all the spooky and festive elements included in the stamp set.  

I attached a piece of twine at the top the wreath. Using the die cut wreath as my base I layered on a mixture of the die cut pieces until I was happy with the arrangement and then glued each die cut to the wreath. I added a few Glossy Black Jewels to the wreath for a little bling. The sentiment is included in the Boo Stamp Set. I stamped in Versamark Ink and embossed with white embossing powder. 

I cut a white panel of cardstock to give the feel of a door and scored lines on the panel. I added the border one each side of the door with one of the borders in the Stitched Borders I Dies. 

Thanks for stopping by! Join us tomorrow for the last day of Halloween Theme Week!

Hello! Thi here and today I am thrilled to be sharing a Halloween card I made for Halloween theme week! Pretty Pink Posh makes some of the most unique and fun Halloween products and I was very excited with the chance to mix some old and new products for today’s card.

For today’s card, I used the following Pretty Pink Posh products:

• Pretty Pink Posh Halloween Pals & the coordinating dies
• Pretty Pink Posh Halloween Friends & the coordinating dies
• Pretty Pink Posh Spooky Fence
• Pretty Pink Posh Boo Coordinating Dies

I started by coloring all my critters from Halloween Pals & Halloween Friends with Copic markers and die cutting with their coordinating dies. 

Next, I cut an A2 size piece of Bristol smooth card stock and ink blended with Distress Oxides in Stormy Sky, Broken China and Chipped Sapphire. I splattered some black ink on top of my ink blended background for interest and spooky fun!

I then die cut the Spooky Fence in black card stock and directly glued this onto my background while trimming off the excess with a pair of scissors. To finish my background, I stamped the sentiment from Halloween Friends directly onto the bottom of this background piece.

For some fun impact, I die cut the BOO from the coordinating dies for the Boo stamp set (which is gorgeous but I did not use today though) onto Bristol smooth card stock and ink blended with Distress Oxide in Dried Marigold and blended down into white. I felt this gave it some color but kept it subtle since it will be sitting on a dark background.

I lined up and popped the BOO and my colored critters onto the card with foam tape for dimension. For a little something-something, I added that cute spider from Halloween Friends into the O in boo and my card is finished!

I hope you liked my Halloween card and as always, thanks for reading! Have an amazing day!

Hi friends, it’s Dana! It is Halloween Theme Week at Pretty Pink Posh and I am excited to be sharing a fun Halloween card with you all. This week the design team will be sharing lots of projects that use many favorite Halloween products from the Pretty Pink Posh online shop. For my card, I used the Trick or Treat Friends set along with many other favorite supplies.

As an added bonus all the Halloween Products will be 15% during Halloween Theme Week. 

For my  card, I started by creating my background. I added Color Burst powders (Orchid, Merlot and Indigo) to a piece of watercolor paper along with some water to create my night sky. Once that was dry I used the Stars Stencil along with some Transparent Gloss Texture Paste. I love how the stars have a subtle but shiny texture.

Next, I stamped my images from the Trick or Treat Friends Stamp Set and the Boo Stamp Set with a Copic friendly black ink. I colored my images with Copic markers and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. 

I then ink blended Distress Oxide Ink in Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn to a piece of smooth cardstock. I used the Scallop Borders 1 Die Set to create my ground/grass, and the Spooky Fence die to create the fun fence line in my background. Next, I stamped my sentiment from the Boo Stamp Set onto the bottom section of my grass.

To finish my card, I attached my grass along with my fence line to my sky background. I then added all of my fun Halloween images to my card front with foam adhesive. These little trick or treaters, all dressed for Halloween, sure do make me smile!

I hope you enjoyed my card today! Join us tomorrow for another day of inspiration.
