Hi friends! It’s Jeanne here today!  The thing I miss most in the winter months is gardening.  I love to spend time outdoors watching the birds and the bees. I’m always amazed at how a little seed becomes a plant, and absolutely thrilled when I see a hummingbird at the feeder.

Reminder: the Ladybug Friends stamp set is FREE with orders over $80 through January 31, 2020 (after any discounts, before taxes/ shipping). Orders over $100 will also receive the coordinating dies!

Ever since I was little the ladybug has been just magical to me. Of course they were on the “nice” list because they’re “ladies” after all, and I knew the ladies wouldn’t harm me.  I would sing the childhood rhyme and blow on them to send them home to their families, or count their spots to see who had the most.

My card starts with a lime green background panel layered with some Zig Zag Stacked Edges 1.  I wanted to give the base a variegated leaf feel – the perfect place for my garden friends. I topped the panel with the Tropical Frame from white card stock. 

The sweet little ladybugs are colored with Copic markers.  I adhered them with adhesive foam tape for more dimension. The finishing touch is just a few Shamrock jewels for some sparkle and shine. 

I think the Pretty Pink Posh Ladybug Friends stamp set is magical too.  The smiles on the ladybugs is contagious and always have me smiling too! 

I hope this card brought a smile to your face. Thanks for stopping by the Pretty Pink Posh blog today!

Hi, Friends!

This is Caly with you today!  I’m sharing a card made using the Love set along with the Large Floral Hearts set to spell the word love by replacing the “o” from the Love set with the “solid” heart from the Large Floral Hearts set.  This requires a longer slimline card to fit all the required letters and images. My total card size is 3.75” x 7”.  

I colored my images with Copic markers and made it cohesive by sharing the same colors across each letter and the heart.  It’s helpful that the illustrations are the same between the two stamp sets. After coloring, I die cut the letters and images and added a few white gel highlights to help my images pop.  The images are small so there wasn’t a whole lot to add. I set my images aside to work on a background.  

Copic colors used:  W0, W3, G12, G14, G43, G46, R22, R24, RV11, RV14, B000, B00, B02, V12, V15, BG11, BG13, Y06.

After figuring out the size of my card by laying out my elements, I cut down a blank panel and ink-blended across the center, leaving about an inch from the sides with Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink.  Then I went over and around the first color with Cracked Pistachio. To give my panel extra interest, I splattered it with some dark teal paint as well as some white paint.

Using a T-ruler to help line up my images, I adhered them down using foam adhesive.  I glued my birds down directly on the card panel – focusing the dimension on the letters and floral heart only.  My sentiment is embossed over black card and adhered to the center of my card using more foam adhesive.

Thanks so much for joining me today!  Have a wonderful day!

Hello, crafty friends! Leica here and today I am sharing a slimline card using the Large Floral Hearts stamp set and the adorable mice from the Party Friends stamp set.

Save 15% off items in the Valentine section during our Valentine Theme Week!

My slimline card measures 3.5 x 8.5 inches. The base is a white rectangle cardstock stitched with a light green thread onto a pink scallop rectangle.

I stamped the heart floral stamp three times, colored with Copic markers, and cut using the coordinating dies. I used the following colors for the flowers and leaves – R20, R21, R22, R24, G40, and G21. Next, I stamped the mice from Party Friends and colored with the following – NO, N1, ROOO, and R20 for the blush and around the sign.

For the sentiments, I used “love you always” and “I love us” from the Large Floral Hearts stamps set, embossed with white ink onto a black cardstock. Then for the banner, I stamped “xoxo” from the Floral Hearts stamp set. I simply rotated the stamp upside down to spell “oxox.”

The last step is adhering everything and I used foam tape for the hearts, mice, and the sentiments for added dimension. 

I hope you enjoy the projects I created to share with you today and feel inspired to create. Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by!

Hi Everyone! It’s Melody here with you today for Day 6 of Valentine Theme Week! I have a Valentine card to share with you that was created with one of my daughters in mind. Even though my girls are not “kids” anymore, I still like to give them a card and a sweet treat for Valentine’s Day! I used a combination of both newly and previously released products to create my card. I love the way all the stamp sets and dies work together.

Let’s start with the background. I cut a piece of white cardstock for the card front and then used the Wide Stripes Stencil with a light aqua ink to create the subtle background pattern. Next I die cut the Love Shaker Die from a red cardstock and attached the heart to the front of the card. 

Around the heart I created this arrangement with the Love Stamp Set and the Love Coordinating Dies. The stamped images are colored with Copic Markers. I used foam squares to attach some the images. I like the dimension it adds. The sentiment is from the previously released Floral Hearts Stamp Set. I stamped in Versamark Ink and embossed with white embossing powder. 

At the bottom of the card I stamped one of the three borders in the Love Borders Stamp Set and added a sentiment from the Love Stamp Set. 

I finished off the card with a few Buttercream Jewels. I love adding just a little sparkle! 

Thanks for visiting! I hope we have given you some ideas for your Valentines! Stop back by tomorrow for more inspiration. 

Hello crafty friends, Sharna here with some Valentine inspiration for you. I love combining the old with the new and Paulina’s sets all work so well together. On today’s card I combined the original Floral Hearts stamp set with the new Large Floral Hearts stamp set.

I made the background first to establish a color combo to use on the rest of the design. I started with the lightest color of distress oxide ink in Spun Sugar, the next was Picked Raspberries and lastly I used Wilted Violet to darken the bottom edge. I then splattered the panel with white paint and dried. 

I stamped and die cut the open heart design from both the old and new set & picked a sentiment for both I thought worked well together. After making sure the panel was dry I stamped and white heat embossed the sentiments inside each heart. I selected several different shades of copics in pinks and purples to match with the background and a single shade of light green for the foliage. I did not do any shading just simple coloring. With such small images shading is not necessary. 

Lastly to finish off the card I picked a selection of Pretty Pink Posh sequins also in pinks and purples. The purple is Lavender Moon and the pinks come from the Friendship Mix.

I really hope this helped inspire you for your Valentine’s projects! Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Friends! It is Dana here today and I am so excited to be sharing some inspiration for Valentine Theme Week. I love creating for Valentine’s Day and Pretty Pink Posh makes some of my favorite products. All the products in the Valentine Section are 15% off this week so it is the perfect time to buy a few new supplies! 

I have two cards to share with you all, I mixed one of my favorite stamp sets from last year along with a favorite from the latest release. I love how these two sets work so well together. Let’s get started, shall we?

I started my first card by stamping the Large Floral Heart wreath in VersaFine Clair black ink and heat setting it with clear embossing powder. I then used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens to watercolor the flowers. (No. 025 PInk, No. 022 Carmine Red, No. 070 Orange and No. 047 May Green) Next, I used the Large Floral Hearts Coordinating Dies to die cut the wreath. 

For my card design, I used the Scallop Border Die Set to die cut my decorative edge. I added this to a piece of orange patterned paper and attached it to my A2 card base. Next, I stamped my sentiment from the Large Floral Hearts Stamp Set onto a banner and added this to my card front along with my die cut wreath. Lastly, I added a few sequins from the Flamingo Pink Jewels Mix to my card front. 

My next card follows the same format as above, though this time I used the Floral Hearts Stamp Set. I stamped the wreath twice, watercolored the wreaths and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. 

For this card layout, I used the straight Scallop Border Die. I die cut it from raspberry cardstock and attached it to my white card panel before attaching everything to my grass green patterned paper. I once again stamped my sentiment onto a banner and added a few jewels from the Flamingo Pink Jewel Mix to finish my card. 

Thanks for joining me today! Join us again tomorrow as we have another day of Valentine inspiration!

Hi everyone! Ardyth here with a couple of cards featuring the some of the new (and old!) Valentine products. Each day a different designer will be here on the blog with some Valentine inspiration for you!

And to help you celebrate, we’re having a 15% discount on all items in our Valentine Section during this theme week!

Today I have a non-traditional valentine using plenty of different techniques – ink blending, stencilling and double-inlaid die cuts! I started by inkblending a panel of white cardstock with pink and yellow inks. Then I used the new Layered Hearts stencils. With the first stencil layer, I added more ink to give a subtle tone-on-tone look to my hearts and with the second stencil, I spritzed some shimmer spray through to add some shine.

I used the large Scallop Heart die to cut out a heart from the colourful panel (see how I didn’t let it go to waste, below), and then inlaid a black heart.

I blended some more ink onto another white panel, and I cut it with the Love word from the Love coordinating die set, and spritzed the letters with the shimmer spray before inlaying them into the panel.

I used the Happy Birthday to You Script die, and trimmed the ‘you’ from the rest of the die cut. I looped the extra curl on the word over the middle arm of the E for some added interest.

For a sparkly finishing touch, I added some of the darkest pink jewels from the Valentine Mix.

I couldn’t let that colourful heart go to waste so I made another card with it. I popped it up on a white panel and then stacked two layers of the Happy Valentine’s Day Script die on top. More of those pink jewels to finish it off and now I have two valentines to send to friends!

Good morning! Heather here today with a fun card for Valentine Theme Week here on the Pretty Pink Posh Blog – and today I’m sharing this soft and sweet card mixing together some of the newest release with some previous ones – I love how Pretty Pink Posh’s products all work together so well from old to new!

I started off for this card by doing some super soft ink blending on my white horizontal card base using Cracked Pistachio and Broken China distress inks.

Next, I stamped, colored, and die cut the images using Pond Friends and Large Floral Hearts stamp set and some simple Copic colors. I also added some sparkly clear Nuvo drops to parts of the floral heart wreath and to the crown, flower, and beaks on the swans.

Once that dried, I layered everything on my inked cardbase, adding a border along the bottom die cut with one of the dies in Stitched Borders 2. I then heat embossed a sentiment  from Pond Friends in white on a thin strip of black cardstock trimmed into a banner shape and mounted with foam adhesive.

Finally, I finished off with a good sprinkling of Sparkling Clear Jewels! I love to adhere these upside down – or with the smaller surface down on the card – I feel like it shows off their sparkle even better that way!

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Join us tomorrow for another day of Valentine theme week!

There’s lots to love during Pretty Pink Posh Valentine Theme Week! It’s Jeanne here today and I’m so excited to be kicking off the festivities with the Pretty Pink Posh LOVE stamp set.

It’s easy to focus on the L O V E Letters in this set, but once you look past them you’ll see lots of other sweet images in the set.. flowers, hearts, a cupcake and even a little dove! 

I inked the middle of a white card stock panel with Spun Sugar distress ink.  I splattered it with water and some Picked Raspberry ink before penciling in a circle using a circle shaped die as a template.

I arranged all the images from the set along the circle. Some of the images are adhered with adhesive foam tape and others are adhered to the card base to add dimension. A sprinkle of Sparkling Clear Sequins are like sugar – candy for the eyes! 

The sentiment is stamped on a strip of white card stock layered over a stitched scallop border from Stitched Borders 4 in pink.

If you’re smitten with these sweet images just like I am, you’ll want to add them to your stash.. and there couldn’t be a better time than now because all the Valentine products in the store are 15% off!  

Stop by tomorrow when we’ll be sharing more Valentine inspired cards!
