Hello, Gemma here today to share a card featuring the adorable new Koala Friends set. On this card, I’ve teamed this new release set with some previously released PPP products.

I began by die cutting the Storybook 1 die from white card. I adhered the frame onto a kraft card base. On the frame pieces, I added a blend of distress oxide inks in the colours Squeezed Lemonade, Wild Honey, and Candied Apple. I love the warm sunset look this gives to the card.

Next, I stamped the image of the koala and baby in the tree from the Koala Friends stamp set, along with some leaves from the Wild Rose stamp set. I coloured the images with copic markers, then die cut them with the coordinating dies.

I found the perfect sentiment for my card in the Encouraging Greetings set, stamping it with versafine onyx black ink onto one of the frame pieces. Then I added the koala and the leaves to the card, using foam tape to pop some of the images up for dimension.

To finish my card, I chose some of the gorgeous Metallic Rose Gold jewels, which look beautiful on the sunset background.

Enjoy browsing the Pretty Pink Posh Shop full of the new products. There will be more inspiration with the new release and next week, we’ll have a two day blog hop filled with even more inspiration!

Sneak Peek: June Die Cuts + Free Gift

Hello, Gemma here sharing about the fabulous new release arriving on June 7th. I paired the fun Love You Script with the Darling Dragonflies. This has to be one of my favourite sets and an absolute must have!

For my card today, I began by die cutting a stitched rectangle from light blue card, using the Stitched Notes die set. I stamped the reed images in a light blue ink at the bottom of the panel. I then added a slight blend of the same colour to add some constrast to the panel, before adhering it to a white card base.

I die cut the new Love You Script die from blue glitter paper, adding it to the panel in the center.

Next, I stamped some dragonflies, then coloured them with copic markers. I die cut the, with the Darling Dragonflies coordinating dies, and added some Wink of Stella clear glitter to the wings. I then adhered them to the card with foam tape for the larger ones, and the smaller one with liquid glue.

Lastly, here’s a look at the free gift that will be available once the new release goes live. These are while supplies last.

Sneak Peek: Geraniums

Hi crafty friend, Crystal here today sharing a sneak peeks of the June Release! I have the honor of creating with the stamp set called Geraniums. You will absolutely fall in love with this newest floral stamp set from PPP.

For today’s post I have created a sweet and delicate floral card that is perfect for any occasion.

To make this card, I stamped and heat embossed the Geraniums and leaves with gold embossing powder. I did not mask any of it, just stamped the flowers in a round pattern.

Next, I colored each petal of the Geraniums with Copic numbers. I used RV17 for my darkest shade and RV10 for my lightest shade. The leaves were colored with YG13 (lightest) and YG17 darkest shade. You will notice, I am only using two markers, for that medium shade I do a “kissing” technique where the lightest marker tip kisses the darkest. Then feathering up from the dark to light on the actual petal or leaf.

Once my Geranium was colored, I moved on to shade the edges of the entire floral bundle. Using Distress Ink in Antique Linen, I blended starting at the edge of the petal and moving down careful not to color the interior of the petal.

Then with Gansai Tambi Starry Colors, I flickered yellow gold watercolor over the entire card panel.

Now onto that gorgeous sentiment! For this I used the Lovely Script die released in May! Ran that die through my gemini on a piece of gold foil cardstock. I then trimmed tiny pieces of foam adhesive and added those to the die.

To finish, I added a variety of Metallic Gold Confetti Mix to card.

These Geraniums are absolutely super fun to color! Hope you enjoyed today’s sneak peek! Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Sneak Peek: Koala Friends

Hello everyone, Joni here sharing a sneak for the new upcoming June 2018 release. The cute Koala Friends stamp set and Koala Friends die set are a must have.

To begin my card I first stamped and die-cut my pieces. Then colored them with Copic Markers.

Next, I distressed my card panel with Distress Oxide and then splattered them with water. I also used the stitched scallop from Stitched Borders 2.

Then, I also stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set Koala Friends using Platinum embossing powder after distressing a white piece of cardstock. Then, I die-cut the piece with Stitched Borders 1.

To finish the card I adhered everything with foam tape for added interest. I then finish the card by added Ivory Jewels.

For my second card, I used the new Hello Shaker die to coordinate with the Koala Friends.

To start my second card, I distressed a white cardstock also using Distress Oxide inks and splattered with water.

Then, I die-cut the Hello Shaker 3 times and adhere with glue on top of the other for a thick look.

I also added the strip of black and white strip of paper and I also added some Ivory Jewels to finish off the card.

Thank you so much for visiting! Stay tuned for more sneak peeks in the next few days!

Sneak Peek: School Friends

Hello everyone! Alix here as a guest designer sharing products from Pretty Pink Posh upcoming June release. I have been a Pretty Pink Posh super fan for quite a while and I am so honored to start this exciting moment with you.

To begin with my card, I first stamped the images from School Friends stamp set on a piece of cardstock paper and cut them with School Friends coordinating dies. Then I colored them with my trusty copic markers and set aside.

I wanted the have the main focus on my shaker window, so I decided to keep the card base almost pure white. For inked background, I ink blended background using distress ink oxide in Tattered Rose, Abandoned Coral and Candied Apple, then I stamped sentiment that comes with this stamp set with some Watermelon Jewels to embellish.

To create the shaker window, I cut the frame for 5 times using the Scallop Ovals, then I glued 4 of them together sandwiched with a piece of acetate paper and the last frame die cut. Before I closed up the top, I poured some Iridescent Mini Star Confetti and 3mm Sparkling Clear Sequins. When its ready, I attached the window onto a A2 base card front.

I arranged all colored images around the window using glue and double sided foam squares to create some dimensions. At last, I scattered 4mm Sparkling clear sequins and 6mm Sparkling clear sequins onto the bottom of this card.

For Copic coloring references for this card:

When you are holding a cute and lovely stamp set, there is no way that you could only make one card. So this second card idea came up very quickly. The scene I wanted to create is that a nerdy boy who likes to bury himself in a library with tons of book. A shy girl who had crush on him expressed her feeling with full courage.

I started to ink blended distress oxide in Peacock Feathers, Twisted Citron and Cracked Pistachio onto a piece of watercolor paper. I sprayed water over inked background and removed all wet spots with a piece of paper towel. When it dried, I splattered a mixture with ink and water over upper portion of background to add some interest.

While I was waiting for background to dry completely, I cut my white frame using the Scallop Frames and I popped them up using double sided foam squares to create dimension. I did my pick and choose for the best images to create my ideal scene and colored them with copic markers. Then I arranged them inside of the frame I created.

I stamped sentiment that comes with this School Friends Stamp set with very black dye ink since my background is in slightly darker color. I also stamped mini hearts around them and added 1/4″ Iridescent star confetti to create lobe sparkles between them.

Sneak Peek: Darling Dragonflies + Simple Sayings: Miss You

Good morning Pretty Pink Posh friends! Heather here this morning with a peek at some of the upcoming Pretty Pink Posh Release! I get to share a sneak peek with you featuring the CUTEST little dragonflies ever – as well as a fabulous new sentiment set! On my second card I also used a few of the new colors of seed beads that are part of this fabulous release!

First up, I created this watercolor card, using the colors I think of when dragonflies come to mind. I used my Peerless watercolors to create a pretty ombre watercolor background, then added some gold splatters with my Gansai Tambai Starry Colors Palette.

I stamped and colored the adorable dragonflies from the new Darling Dragonflies stamp set, then cut them with the coordinating Darling Dragonflies coordinating dies. I added some Nuvo Honey Gold Glitter Drops to the wings for some extra sparkle as well!

I stamped my sentiment from the new Simple Sayings: Miss You, then mounted the dragonflies around it with foam adhesive. I matted that panel with a bit of white cardstock, then mounted on a cardbase made with deep purple cardstock. Finished off with a few Metallic Gold Jewels – the perfect finishing touch!

Next up, I pulled out an older die, Stitched Film Strip, and created a fun little scene with some of the additional images in the stamp set – and turned it into a shaker card filled with some of the pretty new seed beads!

I love the little grass and cattail stamps in Darling Dragonflies – so cute for scene building! And the grass fit PERFECTLY behind each of the windows on the Stitched Film Strip. I separated each window of the die to create the shaker element, and filled each window with a different color of beads (Cotton Candy, Aquamarine and Blush).

I stamped my sentiment underneath, again from Simple Sayings: Miss You using an aqua ink that coordinated with the Stitched Film Strip, and added a couple extra cattails next to the sentiment. Finished off with some Golden Sunset Nuvo Drops on the cattails, and some White Blizzard Nuvo Drops on the wings for lots of sparkle!

Hope you enjoyed today’s sneak peek! Join us tomorrow for another sneak peek of the June release!

Cherry Blossoms & Hummingbirds

Hi there, Liz here. I absolutely love these Cherry Blossoms flowers from Pretty Pink Posh and couldn’t resist but to make a birthday shaker card to make someone smile.

To get this card started, I decided to create the background first using the Stacked Edges 2 die and use the diamond shape border for the design. Therefore, I die cut several rows using the same color and placed them together onto a piece of card stock. Later, I ran it through the die cut machine for the size I wanted and to press more firmly all together.

Next, I moved onto the shaker portion of the card where I used one of my favorites, the Stitched Duo 3 and added this wonderful Berry Bright Mix of sequins which has an array of sizes including 4mm, 6mm, and Clear Droplets. Plus, I love the color combination of pinks, reds, green, and clear.

Moving on, I stamped several flowers and leaves from the Cherry Blossoms set and colored them using my copic markers and reached for the coordinating die to help me cut them out. Next, I colored this gorgeous hummingbird from the Hummingbird Thanks set along with using the coordinating die.

Afterwards, I thought it would be great to add a sentiment so I pulled out the Everyday Greetings since it has a combination of big and small fonts. For this card, I used the smaller font “It’s Your Big Day” and embossed it using white embossing powder.

To finish this card, I added some Clear Droplets in the center from the sequins mix and used some foam mount tape to pop the big flower up and hummingbird. Love how the clear droplets sparkle and adds to the detail.

I hope you enjoyed this post. Join us tomorrow for the start of sneak peeks of our June release!

No-Line Coloring Flourishing Fuchsias

Hi, everyone! It’s Marge here and I’m sharing a no-line watercolor floral card with you, featuring some of the items from the May release.

To begin my card, I stamped floral images from Flourishing Fuchsias stamp set on A2 size cold press water paper using Distress ink Antique Linen. I also stamped butterflies from Butterfly Friends stamp set on separate watercolor paper. Then I watercolored them using my Daniel Smith Watercolor paints (Quinacridone Coral, Rose of Ultramarine, Quinacridone Gold, Sap Green, Prussian Green, Ultramarine Turquoise, and Burnt Umber).

After I finished watercoloring as shown in the picture above, I added more details on those blossoms by using Polychromos colored pencils. I cut butterflies using the Butterfly Friends coordinating dies.

Just compare the two photos of before and after adding pencil detailing. It is always fun to look how the images come to life by a little bit of pencils touch.

After coloring was done, I added splatters of dark watercolor ink and white acrylic ink onto the panel and let them dry. In the mean time, I diecut Lovely Script Die from watercolor paper three times, then I glued them top on top to give the script some dimension. I colored the top surface with black watercolor ink. Sentiment “You’re” is from Bear Hugs stamp set.

Next, I adhered sentiments and butterflies onto the panel using glues and foam tapes. To finish, I adhered the panel onto A2 card base, then I embellish the card by adding some Jewels. For this, I used Metallic Rose Gold Jewels and Sparkling Clear Jewels.

That’s it from me today. Thank you so much for visiting and reading this post.

Everyday Playful Puppy Cards

Hello everyone, Joni here sharing my take on the new released Playful Puppies stamp set and the Playful Puppies coordinating dies. I also used the new Happy Mail stamp set, Happy Mail coordinating dies along with the oldie but goodie Bee Friends stamp set and Bee Friends coordinating dies.

To start my project I first scored my white card panel to create interest on the background with less bulk.

Next, I stamped and die-cut my pieces from the Playful Puppies stamp set with the Playful Puppies coordinating dies, Happy Mail stamp set, Happy Mail coordinating dies, Bee Friends stamp set, and Bee Friends coordinating dies.

Next, I die-cut the new Hugs Shaker Die, but left off the scalloped circle. I also did cut 3 times then stacked the pieces and Copic color the “hugs”. I also sandwich the hugs in between to give that interest on the die-cut.

I also distressed the panel with Distress Ink Oxide.

Here’s the final piece, I literally adhered everything with foam tape for dimensions. I also incorporated the new Metallic Gold Jewels to give it bling.
