Valentine Theme Week- Day 2

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

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!

Valentine Theme Week- Day 1

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.

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

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!

Pretty Pink Posh Birthday Celebration- Day 3

If you missed Day 1 CLICK HERE // If you missed Day 2 CLICK HERE

Hi, everyone! Angelica here, and I’m excited to be sharing two cards made with some of the new January Release products from Pretty Pink Posh.

My first card showcases the new Balloon Shaker die. I used double-sided adhesive to attach Rainbow Shattered Glass Deco Foil to white card stock, then die-cut it with the Balloon Shaker die. I stamped a background panel with birthday hats from the new Party Friends stamp set then used the Balloon Die to die-cut a shaker window. On the backside of the panel, I added 1/8″ Scor tape around the die-cut window. I attached a piece of acetate onto the adhesive to close the window. I turned the panel around and added the foiled balloon die cut to the front. I turned the panel back around and added thin foam adhesive strips around the window. I filled the window with Party jewel Mix, and closed the back of the window with a piece of acetate. I added foam adhesive all over the back of the panel, and attached it to a card base. To finish the card, I used a shimmer pen and Crystal Glaze to add sparkle and shine. I used a T-ruler and gold gel pen to draw a string, and finished the card with a gold die-cut Bow and a single Metallic Gold Jewel.

My second card is a clean and simple card, featuring candles from Birthday Borders stamp set.

I stamped a single row of candles, and colored them with Copic Markers. I did really simple coloring, in a rainbow order, and finished the candles with shadows, using C1 and C3 markers. I stamped a birthday sentiment from Everyday Greetings stamp set. I added adhesive to the back of the panel, and attached it to a card base to finish the card.

Pretty Pink Posh Birthday Celebration- Day 2

Hello and welcome to Day 2 of the Pretty Pink Posh 6th birthday celebration! If you missed Day 1, click here.

Leica here and today I am sharing a happy birthday pop-up box card using the new Party Friends stamp set.

To start, I created the Lawn Fawn pop-up box as directed, in Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock. The patterned paper that I used are from Echo Park Happy Birthday 6×6 paper pad.

Next, I stamped the adorable critters from the Party Friends set on white 110lb cardstock, using Memento Tuxedo black ink. I colored them with the following Copic sketch markers and die cut with the coordinating dies:

Mice – N0, N1, R00

Koala – 0, C1, C3

Cake – BG10, BG11, BG15, Y11, Y13, Y15, V12, V15, RV00, RV10, RV11

Lion – Y21, Y23, Y26, E000, E00, E11

Gift – RV10, RV11, RV13, V12, V15, V17

I then stamped “make a wish” to the banner that the cute little mice are holding. Next, I stamped “happy birthday” to a rectangular piece and stamped the confettis around the sentiment. I used the same copic markers mentioned above. It was so much fun to stamp the confettis to create the background.

Lastly, I glued the adorable koala and lion in the back insert piece, the cute little mice holding a banner in the front insert piece, little star die cuts that are glued to acetate, and the happy birthday sentiment in the front flap of the box.

Pretty Pink Posh Birthday Celebration- Day 1

Hello, Gemma here today to share a love themed card featuring lots of fabulous new products from the Pretty Pink Posh January release. Also, we are celebrating day 1 of our three birthday celebration!

I’ve been so inspired by all the amazing slimline card designs I’ve seen and am enjoying creating my own CAS style slimline cards. I wanted to combine the large sentiment from the Love set with the beautiful Large Floral Hearts set, so a slimline card is the perfect dimension for that.

I began by stamping out the images I want to use from the Love set, Large Floral Hearts set, and the Pond Friends set. I coloured all my images with copic markers, then die cut them with the coordinating dies.

To give my letters and floral heart some dimension, I die cut two extra layers from white card and stacked them behind. This is a great way to get even dimension for your die cuts.

Next, I took a piece of card cut to the same width as my slimline card base, but slightly shorter. I heat embossed a border from the Love Borders stamp set along to lower edge, using a white pearl embossing powder. I love the subtle look this gives.

Before adhering the panel to my card base, I added a piece of white pearl card to show along the lower edge. It’s tricky to capture this in the photo, but I think it gives a lovely finish to the card and matches the embossed border really well.

I used liquid glue to adhere the letters to the card, using the floral heart in place on the V in LOVE. Finally, I added the two swans on the heart, using some foam tape where they sit on the card base.

No party would be complete without guests, gifts and a party favor, right? During the celebration, save 10% off your order using the coupon code provided below.

For the celebration, I brought along some very special guests to celebrate with me and I cannot wait for you to see what they made. Be sure to leave them lots of love- I’ll be giving away prizes to some comments left on their blogs!

Fairy Tale Pond Friends

Hi Pretty Pink Posh friends! It’s Jeanne here and I hope you’re having a great day! I don’t know about you but I just love a fairy tale and still there is nothing better than a happy ending! When I was young I used to love looking through the beautiful books my Grandmother had for us when we would visit.

It wasn’t just the stories that would captivate me.. the beautifully drawn renderings of the events in the book could have me day dreaming for hours. When I saw the Pond Friends stamp set all those stories came back to me. Stories about becoming who you are and finding your perfect mate.

My card starts with a soft blue card stock panel stamped with a sentiment from the set. Next I layered on swoops of Stacked Layers 1 of ombre blue card stock to look like waves. A Scallop Oval die cut is left open so the colorful stripes peek through.

Next I adhered the swans and lily pads. The swans were left uncolored except for their bills and rosy cheeks. I adhered some of the images flat to the card base while others are raised with adhesive foam tape to add dimension.

I know I’ll be reaching for this set for all my real life dreams come true like weddings, engagements, valentines, or just a love letter to my sweetie.

Be sure to visit the blog next week as we’ll have a three day blog hop filled with lots of inspiration. Thanks for stopping by!

January 2020 Release Now Available + Free Gift Offer

The January 2020 Release is now available in the Pretty Pink Posh Shop and select retailers that carry our products. If you missed our post yesterday, we revealed all of the products in picture form, but if you would like to see them in a video, Ardyth has that for you today!

Watch the video above I Watch the video in HD on YouTube

It’s release day at Pretty Pink Posh today and I have two cards to share with you using the new free with purchase stamp set called Ladybug Friends. I love this cute little cheerful stamp set that has the perfect sentiment for thank you cards.

Pretty Pink Posh: January 2020 Release Now Available + Free Gift Offer

During January 2020, we’ll be giving away this not-yet-released 3″ x 4″ stamp set called Ladybug Friends with qualifying orders over $80. Qualifying orders over $100 will also receive the coordinating die set! This is while supplies last and will automatically be included with orders.

My first card uses my favorite stamping technique which I call “random stamping”. I started with a card size piece of white cardstock and then I stamped all of the images in the set with a light color of ink. I then colored them in with colored pencils.

After I colored the images of the ladybugs, I decided they would look better with outlines, so I used a black colored pencil to add them. I used a gray colored pencil to add a shadow below each of the images. I used a white gel pen to add dots inside each of the circles on their wings and lines on their bodies.

I stamped the sentiment in the set on a stitched rectangle from the Mini Storybook 1 Die using white embossing powder. I added a black cardstock rectangle behind it so it stood out more from the card. I also used a black and white frame around the card to frame it. I added some 4mm Raspberry sequins and some 6mm Raspberry sequins around the card to finish it.

For this card, I started by die-cutting an oval frame from a rectangle of white cardstock using the Scallop Oval Dies. I watercolored a piece of white paper with Nuvo Shimmer Powder to place underneath the frame. I attached the white piece to a black card base.

I stamped 3 ladybugs from the stamp set on white cardstock with a light color of ink and colored them with colored pencils. I outlined them again with a black pencil and then added white details with a gel pen. I cut my greeting in half so I could use just the word “thanks” which fit perfectly on a stitched rectangle from the Storybook 5 die. I used gray cardstock and white embossing powder. I finished the card with some Sparkling Clear Sequins.

Isn’t this just the cutest stamp set for thank you cards? Have fun shopping and thank you so much for joining us today to celebrate the new release!

Sneak Peek: January 2020 Stencils

Hi friends! Angelica here and I am excited to showcase some of the new stencils coming in the January 9th release. Lets get started!

My first set of cards showcases the new Layered Hearts stencils. I sprayed the back of the stencils lightly with Pixie Spray, then picked 2 ink pads and blender brushes for each card.

I used The Stamp Market Bubble Gum and Blush inks for the pink card. I blended Blush ink over Layer A, and Bubble ink over Layer B. Before taking Layer B off, I spread a thin layer of Nuvo Moonstone Glimmer Paste over it. I carefully took the stencil off, then cleaned the stencil with soap and warm water. I picked Raspberry Sorbet card stock to coordinate with the pink inks.

I used Pinkfresh Studio Ocean Breeze and Aquamarine inks for the teal card. I did the same steps as the pink card. I picked Cookie Monster card stock to coordinate with the teal inks. I trimmed both panels with a stitched rectangle die, and mounted them onto their matching card stock. I attached them to card bases with foam adhesive, and finished the cards with a heat-embossed sentiment from the new Love stamp set.

I used the new Layered Birthday stencil set to make my next card.

I started with the balloons stencil (Layer A). I attached it on top of masking paper, traced the balloons with pencils, and quickly fussy-cut them out. I attached the stencil to a white card stock panel, covered the balloons with the masks, and started blending ink with a blender brush, taking off one mask at a time. Once I finished, I used a T-ruler and glitter gel pen to draw balloon strings. Next, I attached the banners stencil (Layer B) over the balloons, and added Gina K Designs Bubblegum Glitz Glitter Gel. I set the panel aside to dry, and cleaned my stencil thoroughly with warm water and soap.

I trimmed the panel edges down, and attached it a card base. I glued a thin strip of black card stock to each side, and added a heat-embossed sentiment from Piñata Party stamp set.

Be sure to join us tomorrow as we reveal all of the new products in picture form and the January 2020 Bundle is available! Then on January 9th, all the individual products will be available.

I hope you enjoyed this sneak peek of the new layered stencils. Have a great rest of your day!

Sneak Peek: January 2020 Dies

Hello crafty friends. Happy New Year! It’s Yoonsun here to share a couple of my happy birthday cards with the new dies from the January 9th release. I’m featuring the Birthday Frame, Happy Birthday to You Script and Balloon Shaker dies.

I started by die cutting the Birthday Frame from watercolor paper. I then inked some Distress inks to the Birthday Frame in rainbow order using blender brush. After inking up, I applied water to lighten colors.

Once the frame was dry, I adhered the acetate behind the frame – made a shaker window panel. I added sequins to the center of the gray card – I used Mini Sparkling Clear Flowers, Mini Gold Star Confetti, 6mm Sweetheart Mix and Sparkling Clear Mix. I then covered the birthday frame over the card. For the sentiment, I die cut the word Happy Birthday to You from white cardstock, then added it to the center of the card (as shown in the picture) using foam tape.

For my second birthday card, I used the Balloon Shaker die and the Birthday Borders stamp set. For the background panel, I die cut stitched rectangle panel from red cardstock using the Stitched Notes die. I hear embossed the birthday borders with clear embossing powder, then added white pigment ink all over the panel.

I die cut the Balloon Shaker from white cardstock, I die cut a bow from the Twine and Bows die set from glitter gold cardstock. I mounted all elements as shown in the picture using foam tape, and then embellished with a few Sparkling Clear Mix.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Stop by tomorrow for a look at the new stencils!

Hugs,
Yoonsun
