Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I have a shaker card to share with you all using the Boo stamp set. I’m pairing it with the Spider Web Stencil for my background.
I started off with stamping out my images and colouring them in with Copic Markers. Once they were coloured, I cut them out with the Boo coordinating dies. I also added white detail lines to each of the images as well.
I set the images to the side and worked on the background. I adhered down a piece of watercolour paper with washi tape and laid the stencil over the top. I then mixed up my own texture paste using Distress Inks, Glitter and Translucent Embossing Paste. I mixed up three colours and spread it over the stencil. I then sprinkled more glitter, dried it a little with a heat tool, peeled off the stencil and then let the piece dry.
Once the piece was dry, I cut the ‘Boo’
Word from the centre. I adhered acetate on the back and added foam tape around
the letters. I added in my sequins and star confetti and then added a black
piece of cardstock on the back. I flipped it over and adhered the middle of the
letters back in, too.
I adhered the images around the shaker
using foam tape. I also white heat embossed the ‘Happy Halloween To You’
sentiment onto a think black strip and adhered it down over the shaker. To
finish up I added a hemp cord bow to the right-hand side of my project.
That finished up my card for today, I hope you all enjoyed, and I’ll see you next time.
Hello friends, Eloise here and today I have three Halloween cards to share with you all using the Brush Strokes Stencil. I paired it with a few of the Halloween themed stamps in the most current release.
To start off my first card, I took a piece of watercolour cardstock and masked off individual “ghosts” from the Brush Strokes Stencil to ink blend onto the background. I used Pumice Stone Distress Ink and a little white pigment ink to blend them. Once they were all done, I made masks for them all using masking paper and adhered them over the top. I then used Washi Tape and the Wide Stripes Stencil to ink blend stripes over the background diagonally. I flicked on some water and dried it off with a heat tool.
I decided that the ghosts blended into the background too much, so I re-applied the masks and laid over the stencil and used some Black Soot Distress Ink to create a drop shadow on the each of them. Lastly, I adhered Silly Eyes to each of them using some glossy accents and white heat embossed the sentiment ‘Happy Halloween To You’ from the Boo Stamp Set onto a thin strip of black cardstock and adhered it straight across the card.
For the second card, I decided to turn the Brush Strokes Stencil into stamped images. I first took a piece of white cardstock and cut it down with the rectangle inStitched Notes Dies. I then used a stamping tool to stamp the pumpkin border from Fall Borders Stamp Set. I traced around the heads of the “ghosts” and then used the hat stamp from the Boo Stamp Set to stamp on the top of each of them. I erased the pencil lines, took the stencil and traced around each of the ghosts with a black marker. I then coloured everything in with Copic Markers.
After they were coloured, I drew faces on each of the ghosts using the same black marker. I then created masks for everything, adhered them on top and ink blended some Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn onto the bottom and Blueprint Sketch for the top. I removed the masks and then white heat embossed the same ‘Happy Halloween’ sentiment from the Boo Stamp Set onto a thin strip of black cardstock. I adhered it to the card and then adhered the entire panel onto a piece of patterned paper.
For my final card I wanted to create a mini shaker card. I started off with die cutting the Decorative Tag 2 three times, once from watercolour paper and twice from normal white cardstock. I used the Brush Strokes Stencil to ink blend some Wilted Violet, Carved Pumpkin and Twisted Citron Distress Inks over the top onto the watercolour cardstock tag. I flicked on some water and dried it off with a heat tool. I took a circle die and cut it from the centre and added acetate onto the back. I then took the one of the other white tags and adhered a piece of blue cardstock onto it. I added foam tape around the entire perimeter of the piece and added the star confetti’s inside. I then adhered my ink blended tag on top.
I then ink blended one of the “ghosts” from the Brush Strokes Stencil onto some more cardstock using Pumice Stone and white pigment ink, cut around it with scissors and adhered Silly Eyeson top. I then adhered it onto the front of my tag. I white heat embossed the same sentiment from the Boo Stamp Setonto a strip of black cardstock and adhered it into place. I then adhered the last tag I cut onto the back using a little bit of tape at the top and that finished off my third card.
I started by stamping my pumpkin patch, using the row of pumpkins from Fall Borders, and my original sized MISTI, and some masking.
To quickly colour the card, I used the same mask and ink blended the sky and pumpkins. Then I added some optional, extra colouring to add more depth and shadows, but you can stop anywhere along the way, depending on how much time you’ve got.
I finished the card with a sentiment and the bat image from the Boo stamp set and then put the panel onto a black card base. I made another card, with a white base – see how different the cards feel, with that one small change?
I hope you enjoyed watching how I made these two cards!
Hi all! Lindsay here on the Pretty Pink Posh blog today! I’m sharing a card using the new Sunflowers Stamp Set. I thought that the sunflowers were a perfect addition to PPP’s floral collection and a great one for fall cards!
I started with stamping a bunch of flowers from the Sunflowers Stamp Set all over a piece of smooth cardstock with Versafine Onyx Black Ink and then heat embossed the images with clear embossing powder. While that cooled, I cut masks for the different floral images, and with moving the masks around, I stamped the leaf images from the Sunflowers Stamp Set in the background which also were heat embossed.
Now that I had my full background filled with Sunflowers and Leaves, I got to coloring! I had just gotten the Altenew Watercolor Brush Markers and it was my first time trying them out for a watercolor look. I colored the sunflowers with Autumn Blaze and Warm Sunshine, the leaves with Moss, and the background with Dusk. I finished off the panel with a splattering of white paint. I can’t seem to get through a card these days without some splatter!
When that was fully drying, I die cut the smaller frame from the Scallop Frame Dies in kraft cardstock and the Happy Thanksgiving Script Die from white cardstock. I then adhered those to a dried background panel and a card base and the card was finished!
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you were inspired! Lindsay
Next, I stamped Fall Borders on Neenah Desert Storm Paper using Distress Ink Antique Linen for a no-line look, then I colored in the images using my Copic Markers as well. After the coloring was done, I added more shades using my colored pencils.
If you haven’t tried Copic Marker coloring on kraft paper yet, I would definitely recommend you to try it because it is very easy and fun. The paper is so smooth that Copic markers are blended very well on it. Since the paper is dark, your Copic colors are not as bright as those on white paper, which creates an overall tone-down look perfect for the autumn mood. Plus, you can hardly see coloring mistakes on this dark paper as well.
Next, I adhered my colored images onto the kraft panel to create a lovely autumn scene. I also added pumpkins and leaves from Pumpkin Patch Critters, Autumn Wreath, and Giving Thanks stamp sets. At first, I was doubtful of putting images that were colored on white paper with black lines onto a kraft background full of no line images. But, in the end, I love how it came out and I hope you’ll like it, too.

Hello, Gemma here today to share a card using a mix of the fabulous new August release and some previously released Pretty Pink Posh products. I love to mix sets to make a scene for my cards.
I began with the copic colouring. I stamped images from the new Sunflowers and Fall Signs, along with some pumpkins from the previously released Pumpkin Patch Critters.
I chose the following copic colours for my sunflowers, mixing a bit of the E50 shades into the petals: Y11, Y15, Y17, E53, E55 and E57. I stamped a greeting on the scarecrow’s sign, using a sentiment from the Fall Signs stamp set, then used the coordinating dies to cut out all the images.
Next, I worked on the background. I cut a piece of orange patterned paper to adhere to my card base. I then die cut the previously released Lattice Backgroundfrom white card and adhered with liquid glue over the top. I love cover backgrounds for adding interest to a card.
I arranged my images on my card base and, once happy with the placement, I used liquid glue to adhere the sunflowers and leaves. I used foam squares to add the scarecrow over the top, then adhered the pumpkins at his feet. I just love the pumpkin with the little mouse peeking out!
For some finishing touches, I added my usual white and black gel pen details. I then used the beautiful Espresso jewels to add some sparkle to the centre of the sunflowers. TheEspresso jewels are a must have for fall cards as they tone in so well with those beautful autumnal colours.

Hi friends, Angelica here with a pair of Halloween cards cards showcasing two stencils from the upcoming release. These products will be available August 20th.
I used the new Spider Web Stencil to make this flocked background. I sprayed the back of the stencil with Pixie Spray, then adhered it to black card stock. I spread DecoFoil Transfer Gel over the stencil in an even layer. I removed the stencil, and set the card stock aside for a few hours to dry.
I trimmed a piece of black DecoFoil Flock Transfer Sheet slightly larger than the black card stock. I put the flock side down onto the dry Transfer Gel, and ran it through my pre-heated MINC machine. Once it was out of the machine, I peeled off the sheet, revealing a flocked spiderweb.
The large BOO is from the new Boo Stamp Set. I stamped and colored the word, then used the coordinating die to die-cut it. I attached it to the spiderweb with thin foam squares. I added the panel to to a card base, then finished the card with a white heat-embossed sentiment from the same stamp set.
My second card features the new Wafers Stencil.
I used Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade, Wilted Violet, and Black Soot Distress oxides to blend over the stencil. I moved the stencil in a different position for each color. I used my Ranger Make Art Stay-tion(You can see how much I use this tool!) to keep my stencil positioned straight and even. My last color, Black Soot , was topped with a thin layer of Brutus Monroe Unicorn Horn Glitter Glaze.
Once the glaze was dry, I trimmed the panel, and mounted it onto black card stock.
I colored the cat and dog from the Halloween Pals Stamp Set, and used the coordinating dies to die-cut them. I attached them to a die-cut Window Frame, then added the frame to the card front. I used foam adhesive to attach the card front to a card base, then added a heat-embossed sentiment to finish the card.
We have a total of six stencils in this release- you are going to love each of them. Tomorrow you’ll see all of them in picture form!
I hope I have given you some new ideas on how to use these stencils. Thanks for stopping by.
Hi Friends! It is Melody here on the blog today and I am going to give you a sneak peek at the new Fall Borders Stamp Set and the Thanksgiving Scene Stamp Set being released on August 20th. I always am a little extra excited for the Fall Release. It kicks off the start of creating for the holidays!
Here’s a look at my first project. I stamped the Thanksgiving Scene Stamp Set in a dark brown pigment ink and colored the with my Copic Markers. I used a blending brush to add a pale yellow ink to the background.
There are three different border stamps in the Fall Borders Stamp Set. I cut a piece of Kraft cardstock to fit the card front and stamped the leaves borderat the top and bottom of the card front. I stamped in Versamark Ink and embossed with gold embossing powder. Then I colored the leaves in a variety of fall colors. Around the edges of the card front I sponged on Distress Ink in Brushed Corduroy.
Next I stamped and embossed the sentiment from the Thanksgiving Scene Stamp Set on a strip of deep red cardstock and added a strip of gold cardstock at the top and bottom of the scene.
On my second card I used the Fall Borders Stamp Set in a couple of different ways. First I used the Fall foliage border to create the background pattern, stamping dark green ink on dark green cardstock. The I stamped the border again on a strip white cardstock, colored with Copic Markers, and sponged Antique Linen Distress Ink on the edges. Then I die cut the larger of the window in the Window Frames Dies directly into the card front.
Hello crafty friends! It’s Yoonsun here to share with you my autumn-themed card with the Fall Signs StampSet & Coordinating Dies along with the Pumpkin Background Stencil. All of these products will be available on August 20th!
I started by stamping some images from the Fall Signs set on watercolor paper using black pigment ink. I watercolored all stamped images, and then die cut them with the matching dies. I stamped the autumn greetings on the sign boards using black ink as well.
For the background, I placed the Pumpkin Background stencil on white card base, and then inked with pale brown dye ink.
I adhered all watercolored images on the bottom of the card using foam tape. I embellished with a few jewels for finishing touches.
Isn’t this a fun set and stencil? You can create all sorts of cards with them for the fall season. Be sure to visit us tomorrow for another sneak peek!
Hello, Gemma here with a sneak peek to share with you all. I’m using the new Boo set, which is so much fun for Halloween. I made two cards to show how easy it is to get very different looks with this set.
For my first card, I started with the background. I inked up two panels of white card with distress oxide inks in cracked pistachio, peacock feathers and black soot.
On one of these panels, I used the new Spider Web stencil with embossing ink, then heat embossed the pattern with a clear glitter embossing powder.
On the other panel, I stamped the larger ‘Boo’ from the set and embossed it with white embossing powder. I then used the coordinating die to cut the letters out, keeping all the pieces.
I layered the spider web panel onto my card base with foam tape, then adhered the stamped embossed letters from the other panel in the spaces. I set these back for dimension, and popped up the inside letter pieces (from the spider web panel) with foam tape.
For my second card, I’m using the die cut spider web letters from my first card to create a very different look.
I white heat embossed a sentiment from the Boo stamp set at the bottom of the card, then used foam tape to adhere the Boo die cut letters. I love the impact of these large letters across the card.
The Boo stamp set has lots of fun Halloween images. I stamped and copic coloured them, choosing mostly blue, pink and purple colours to match my background.
I used the coordinating dies to cut the images out, then placed them around my card, adhering with foam tape. I love to add the hat to one of the letters.
I hope you enjoyed these Halloween cards- there are so many fun uses for this set. Join us tomorrow for another sneak peek of the August 20th release!
