Hi Everyone! It is Melody here on the blog today. Welcome to another day of ValentineTheme Week! I have a Valentine card to share with you that would be perfect for your older daughters or girlfriends. I still enjoy sending Valentines to my daughters even though they are young adults now.
I started by cutting the With Love Shaker Die from white cardstock and adding color with Copic Markers. You could use a number of options to add the color, colored pencil, inks, and watercolors. I cut a square of white cardstock and cut the With Love Shaker Die directly in the center of the square. I inlayed the colored heart in the white square. On the backside I added clear acetate and foam tape to form the shaker.
Here are the other pieces I created to add to my card. I cut another square of white cardstock, brushed on Distress Ink in Squeezed Lemonade. This square covers the back of the shaker after the sequins are dropped in. Next I cut a strip of pink cardstock and stamped a sentiment from the Floral Hearts Stamp Set across the strip. I cut three scalloped borders with the Stacked Edges 1 Dies and sponged on Worn Lipstick, Squeezed Lemonade, and Twisted Citron Distress Inks.
I used the Sparkling Clear Confetti Mix for the shaker. Since I used a lot of different colors and patterns on my card I decided the clear confetti would look the best.
There are so many fun possibilities with these products.
Thanks for stopping by today. I hope we have inspired you to starting creating your Valentines! Join us tomorrow for another day of inspiration!
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 setfor 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.
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 theFloral Hearts stamp set. I love the fact that this stamp set included a variety of smaller sentiments that fit perfectly in small spaces!!
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 friends, Eloise here and today I have some Valentine’s tags to share with you all using the brand-new Floral Hearts stamp set. I honestly love this small set so much. There are endless possibilities with these hearts and along with the coordinating dies there are multiple ways to cut them as well. I’ll be using them to create styles of tags today for all different sizes of gifts.
To start off I stamped these hearts out using my MISTI. I stamped the wreath + inside heart first, creating a full heart. I then stamped the wreath and inside heart piece separately as well. I then used my Copic Markers to colour them all in the same way.
Once they were all coloured, I die cut them out using the coordinating dies. The dies can create all three styles of hearts – a wreath, a large full heart and a small full heart creating lots of possibilities. I decided to take advantage of that and create three styles of tags. I then die cut plain white die cuts and adhered them on the back so you would have a clean place to write your message.
I then punched a small hole in the tops of each of the tags for a place to thread through the ribbon. I pulled in the Stitched Notes Dies and cut the small banner from light pink cardstock. I took three of the sentiment stamps from the same Floral Hearts stamp set and stamped them onto each of the banners. I punched a hole through those as well and threaded them onto my tags with ribbon. Lastly, I tied a bow with hemp cord at the top of each of the banners and my tags were complete.
Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you enjoyed my simple Valentine’s tags.
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.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed this Valentine’s Day card! Join us tomorrow for another day of inspiration!
Hello everyone, it’s Mayra here with you today! This week we will be sharing Valentinethemed 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.
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 availablehere.
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.
I also used the smaller scalloped heart to create a mini shaker for the mini Valentine card set. The sentiments are from theCupcake Critters andFloral Hearts sets.
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 Ardyth and today is my very first time on the Pretty Pink Posh blog and YouTube channel! I have a video tutorial to share using the new Pinata Party set.
I used the Pinata Party set to make a fun shaker card with a special feature! The Pinata is hanging on some twine, so he can swing inside the shaker among all the fun jewels and sequins!
I started by stamping the background – I used one the Let’s Party sentiments from the set and created a grid by stamping it, turning the stamp and then stamping again. I added some colourful stamped confetti to the background, so that when all the jewels and sequins settle, there are still bright happy colours all over the card!
I built my shaker frame with 6 layers of the large Scallop Square die cut. This seemed to work fine, but I still think that next time, I’ll use 7 to give my shaker fillers a bit more room. I put acetate behind the top layer of the shaker frame, and I glued the silver twine to the second layer of the frame, so that the pinata could swing from that. I used some anti-static powder on the acetate so he could swing freely without getting stuck on the acetate.
Then I used some of the new Party Mix jewels and Sparkling Clear Confetti Mix as my shaker filler. I stamped another sentiment and some confetti on the inside of the card as well. I love how it looks like the pinata has already exploded, and the party is ready to start!
Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you enjoyed the card and video.
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 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.
Hi friends, Angelica here and today I’m sharing a fun shaker card using new products from the Pretty Pink Posh January release. I am so in love with the new Cupcake Critters stamp set, and the images pair perfectly with the new Celebrate Shaker die.
My first step was coloring the cupcake critter. I stamped the image onto white card stock with Copic-friendly ink. I then colored the image with Copic Markers. I started with the bunny: W5, W3, W1, W00, R00. For the frosting, I used V00, V01, V12, V15. I colored the frosting with V00, did a little shading with V01, then did little dots of colors to finish the rest of shading, and to add texture. For the wrapper, I used Y21, Y23, Y26, Colorless Blender, and V91 for the drop-shade under the frosting. Lastly, the cherry I colored with R24, R27, R29, and R59. I used each marker to draw a line, leaving white space around the stem.
My next step was inking the card front. I used Scattered Straw and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Inks to blend onto Neenah Solar White 80 lb card stock. I started at the top with the Scattered Straw, blending ink down towards the middle of the card front. I blended the same with the Wilted Violet, blending the ink up towards the middle. I didn’t want the inks touching too much. When I was finished, I tapped shimmer water all over the paper. I let the water sit for about 15 seconds, then dabbed the water up with a paper towel. This left shimmery drops all over paper.
To make the shaker element, I ran the card front through my die-cut machine with the Celebrate Shaker die. I then closed the window from the backside with a piece of acetate and 1/8 inch Scor Tape. I die-cut Celebrate again out of white card stock that I had added Stick It Adhesive to on the backside. This made it really easy to attach the die cut to the front of the shaker window. I flipped the card front around to the backside and added Darice Double-sided Adhesive Strips to all four sides of the window. I filled the window with Sugar Plum Jewels and Sugar Plum Confetti, then closed the window with another piece of acetate. I added foam tape to the rest of the back and attached the card front to an A2 size card base. I used thin adhesive squares to add the Cupcake Critter, then used W3 and W1 Copic markers to draw a quick shadow under the cupcake. My final touch was adding a few Sugar Plum Jewels using Ranger Multi Media Matte.

Hello and welcome to Day 2 of the Pretty Pink Posh 5th birthday celebration! If you missed Day 1, click here.
Gemma here and today I’m sharing a card using the new Pinata Party stamp set. I absolutely love this set!! The images are so much fun and the sentiments are perfect!
I began by working on the background. I stamped the solid pennant image with dye inks, choosing colours to match the new Party Jewels Mix. I stamped two per colour, die cut them out with the Pinata Partycoordinating die, then used foam tape to create vertical borders on both edges of my card base.
Next, I stamped and copic coloured the unicorn pinata image and die cut it with the coordinating die. I used a clear glitter pen all over it for lots of sparkle.
I cut a piece of gold thread to add to the back of the pinata, then used foam tape to add the unicorn to the white card panel. I tucked the end of the gold thread behind the panel, then added it to the card base with lots of foam tape.
Using the same ink colours as I used for the pennant images, I stamped some confetti images around the unicorn. I then finished with some jewels from the new Party Jewels Mix, adding them around the unicorn and also to the center of the pennants.
