Cards

Hi there, crafty friends! Leica here, and I’ve got a jolly Christmas shaker card to share with you. I used some dies, stencils, and shaker bits from the Pretty Pink Posh October release.

To kick things off, I used the Jade ink from Pigment Craft Co to color in the Layered Christmas Trees stencils. Then, I added some Finnabair Snowflake Paste to add detail to the tree (it’s the B layer of the set). I decided to skip adding the tree stems.

Next, I made a pink frame using the Fancy Cake dies. I glued a piece of clear plastic on the back and put foam tape all around it to create a well for the shaker part. Then, I filled it up with some Christmas Cookie Shaker Beads. It’s a blast to shake this card with those beads inside!

After that, I put together a stocking using the Build A Stocking dies and filled it with elements from the Holiday Mug Additions dies. The cute little gift is a rectangle from the Build A Stocking Dies and the Stitched Strips dies.

For the words, I used hot foil to make “Merry Christmas” in gold on white cardstock and cut it with the matching Merry Christmas Shadow die. Then, I added some pizzazz by white heat embossing “Merry” on a strip of red cardstock and sticking it onto the card panel with foam.

Finally, I glued the card panel onto a standard A2-sized cardstock, and that wraps up my card.

Thanks a ton for stopping by, and I really hope you enjoy today’s card share. Have a splendid day!

Hello, crafty friends! It’s Leica here and I’m thrilled to share a fall-themed Thank You card that’s a breeze to create thanks to the fall dies and stencils from Pretty Pink Posh. The best part? No marker coloring required this time, making it a real treat. I’ve been all about these marker-free creations lately!

So, let’s dive in. I started with a 4.5-inch white cardstock, which served as the canvas for my card. To give it a fun backdrop, I used the Layered Fall Wreath Stencils. Using Distress Oxide Inks in shades like Dried Marigold, Mowed Lawn, Spiced Marmalade, and Twisted Citron, I was able to achieve the look of patterned paper with the magic of PPP stencils. 

Next up, I cut the Easter Basket Dies in kraft cardstock and filled it to the brim with gorgeous sunflowers. I created these blooms using the Fall Cornucopia and Fall Mug Additions dies, all cut from Spellbinders cardstock. To add an extra dash of charm, I nestled some leaves behind the sunflowers and playfully placed a couple of acorns on the left side of the basket.

For the sentiment, I went with the heartfelt ‘Thankful For You’ stamped from the Sentiment Strips: Fall stamp set onto a tag, discreetly tucked behind one of the sunflowers. To frame the stenciled panel, I cut a dark green cardstock to  4.75-inch square and layered my stenciled panel atop it. This gave the card a splendid border of color. Finally, I glued the card panel onto a white card base.

And that’s a wrap for my card! I have to gush about how much I adore the Easter Basket Dies—it’s such a delight to fill it with cheerful sunflowers for an autumn-themed masterpiece. My hope is that this card inspires you to dust off this basket die and embark on your own crafting journey this season. Happy crafting!

Hello! It’s Lindsey here. It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of the entire mug collection of dies. There are so many fun bits and pieces in them, and in the Fall Mug Additions, the cute little acorn immediately caught my eye. Probably because I’ve loved finding acorns ever since I was a little girl.  

Well, I die cut one acorn, blended some ink on, and loved it so much that I die cut another…and another…and another. Before long I had a little stack of colorful acorns.  

I pushed the acorns aside to work on another card, but when I glanced down at the pile, I thought it looked so cute that I grabbed some press n’ seal to keep it all in place, and glued it right down onto a card. Quite possibly the easiest card ever!  

Not wanting to take any attention away from the acorns, I stamped a simple sentiment from the Sentiment Strips: Fall stamps and called it a day.  

Simple cards just make my heart happy. :) I hope they make your heart happy, too! Thanks so much for joining me today!  

Hey there, crafty friends! Leica here, bursting with excitement to share my cute autumn thank-you card with you. I used the Pumpkin Shaker Die and some other dies from Pretty Pink Posh to make this card extra special. Let’s jump right into the creative fun!

To start, I cut out the largest die from the Stitched Torn Rectangles dies using purple cardstock. Then, I used Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Ink to add a purple touch at the bottom for an ombre look. To make things interesting, I splashed on some purple watercolor and white ink.

Now, the star of the show: the Pumpkin Shaker Die! I thought it’d be adorable to have a cat on top of the pumpkin. So, I mixed things up by using the fox head from the Fall Mug Additions and the whiskers from the Halloween Mug Additions dies. Super cute, right?

Adding a bit of elegance, I used brown cardstock to foil the Thankful Script. Then, I used the Thankful Shadow Die to make it stand out. I also heat embossed “for you” in white on a strip of black cardstock and put it just under the Thankful script. It added a cool touch!

For an extra pop, I glued teal cardstock behind the card panel. Lastly, I glued the card panel onto an A2-sized white card base.

That’s the story of my pumpkin shaker card with a sweet kitty twist. I pictured it in my mind, and I’m so glad it turned out cute. Thanks for spending time with me today! Have a fantastic day filled with creativity and smiles.

Hi friends! This is Amanda from Twiddler’s Nook and I’m thrilled to be on the Pretty Pink Posh blog today sharing a card I created with the fall release. I paired the super fun Fall Jar stamps and dies with the Deco Leaves stencil.

I can tell the seasons are changing when I’m reaching for all of those rich, deep colors in my inks and copic markers. It’s almost subconscious because I love fall so much!

Today, I started my card with the messy background so it had time to dry while I was working on the other elements. First I inked up a 4×5.25 inch white piece of cardstock with distress oxide inks in aged mahogany and crackling campfire. I splattered the panel with water and blotted it dry before attaching the Deco Leaves stencil over the top and spreading Thermoweb Aged Copper Metallix through it.

I removed the stencil, set the panel aside and cleaned everything before switching gears to stamping and coloring.

I stamped out all of those sweet images from the Fall Jar stamp set and colored everything with copic markers before using the coordinating dies to cut it all out. Then I used liquid glue to adhere all of the parts and pieces together except the mouse. He needed to stand out in a foam square.

When my stenciled background was dry, I used liquid glue to adhere it to a white card base. Then I used the main die in the Spring Circles die set to cut a green label. I added the jar to that with foam strips and did the same to add the label to my background panel.

To finish things off, I tied jute twine around the top of the card and tied it in a bow. Then I added Touch of Gloss to the berries, small leaves and spots on the mushroom.

I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day! 

Hi friends! Welcome to the last day of Autumn Theme Week.

It’s Zsofi here today and I am sharing a heartwarming Fall scene mixing old and new stamp sets. I love all the different pumpkins from the Autumn Pumpkins stamp set and wanted to pair them with some cute critters. I chose the adorable foxes from Winter Woodland.

First I stamped and coloured the imags with Copic markers and cut them out with their coordinating dies.

Then I gold foiled the Thankful Hot Foil plate using a Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil Platform. I found that the best results I get with the Hammermill 100lb white cardstock, it is a game changer. The Thankful Shadow die cut the sentiment perfectly, it looks amazing. I white heat embossed the rest of the sentiment from the Fall Jar stamp set on a thin strip of black cardstock.

For the background I die cut light grey cardstock with the largest Stitched Torn Rectangles die an added a little bit of shading to the edges with black ink. I also added gold splatters to the panel using Gansai Tambi watercolours. It is an easy way to get some texture.

Then I assembled the scene using 3D foam squares behind the foxes, so they stand out. As a fishing touch I used a white gel pen to add highlights and a black glaze pen to make the eyes and noses shiny. I also added a bit of glossy accents to the stems of the pumpkins. Isn’t it a lovely scene of gratitude?

I wish you liked my card and got inspired to mix your older stamps with the new ones. Make sure you check out the previous days’ posts too, to see all the amazing Autumn inspiration from the design team.

Thank you for stopping by and see you soon,
