Hello friends, Shannon here today. I have a fun clean and simple birthday card to share with you. I used the Birthday Friends stamp set along with the coordinating dies and the Storybook 6 die.
I started with an A2 sized piece of white cardstock that I die cut the Storybook 6 die in the center of, and adhered this panel onto a white card base. I ink blended my square and rectangle die cut pieces with some a few different colored inks to create a pop of color in the background and adhered them onto my card puzzling them back into the panel.
I stamped my Birthday Friends images onto some watercolor cardstock and colored them in using Zig real brush markers and a waterbrush and cut them all out using the Birthday Friends coordinating dies. I adhered all my pieces onto the card where desired and finished it off my stamping the sentiment in the set.
That finishes off my card today! It was fairly simple cut and I love the look of color on a white card! It just pops!
Thank you so much for joining me today!!
Hello friends, Eloise here and today I have two cards to share with you using the Wild Rose stamp set. I LOVE florals. They make for super classy cards for almost any occasion and I think everyone needs a good floral stamp set. This one is great as it contains so many images and you can create full clusters and bouquets. I’ll also be pairing in the Thank You Script word dies since I couldn’t help but use it also! These new products are amazing!
I coloured up my images the same way I colour on normal watercolour cardstock. I scribble some of my colour down where I want the darkest area to be and then with a water brush, I pull out the colour in stages into the rest of the area. This ensures a nice gradient between the colour so it looks perfectly blended. I repeated this process on all the petals and then on the leaves also and these markers blended so nicely on this paper, so super smooth and the colours blended out so well. I loved colouring with these markers on this paper I got great results and colouring on a different colour of cardstock gives it a really interesting look to it all. The colouring on the tan paper makes the colours appear more warm, and the colouring on the grey cardstock makes the colours appear more cool. Which is so interesting and gives a completely different look to these markers.
Once my colouring was completed I die cut the images out using coordinating dies. Next up, I used the Stitched Notes die set and cut into two pieces of white cardstock that measure 4″ wide by 5 1/2″ tall. This is because I want to use frame not the actual rectangle piece that it cuts. So when I lined up the die, I want it to be perfectly centered. So once I die cut those, I added foam tape onto the back and adhered them onto two card bases. For the inside of my cards, I die cut some green polka dot cardstock with the same rectangle die from Stitched Notes and adhered them flat into the card base. For my flowers and leaves, I arranged them onto the center of my card, picked them up with a little press n seal and adhered them down in stages. I used liquid adhesive for the leaves, then more foam tape for the flowers. I did this since I wanted these flowers to be placed perfectly, and once I got them places I didn’t want to loose where I had placed them.
For my sentiment, I used the ‘Hello’ from Birdie Friends and white heat embossed it twice onto a strip of black cardstock. Then I used the Thank You die set and just cut the ‘you’ word six times out of white cardstock and adhered three each together. I then adhered both sentiments onto my cards. To finish up I used the Berry Bright Sequin Mix and scattered them around the flowers.
Good morning Pretty Pink Posh friends! Heather here this morning with a couple cards to share for a very special blog hop for Autism Awareness! You can find all the info on the hop HERE – what it’s all about, who’s participating, and all the sponsors of this great event!
I made two cards today featuring a variety of new and old Pretty Pink Posh products!
I created some bright happy scenes with fun sentiments, happy balloons, and pretty flowers – not to mention a few of the popular new Pretty Pink Posh jewels!
I started off with the cute little boy and girl from Birthday Friends, and stamped the bundle of balloons for them as well. I colored them up, then die cut with the coordinating Birthday Friends Dies. I die cut a couple of Stitched Speech Bubbles from black cardstock, and heat embossed sentiments on them from the new Encouraging Greetings Stamp Set (a must have!).
Next, I stamped several of the flowers and greenery from the new Bunny Friends Stamp set, and cut them out with the coordinating Bunny Friends Dies. I tried to keep the color combos well coordinated, using the same Copic colors between balloons, flowers, and clothes, then mixing them up between the cards to balance everything out.
After I planned my placement of everything, I did some Copic coloring with my Warm Gray Copics to add a ground for the scene. Next, I adhered the girl and boy and their balloons with foam adhesive, and covered the balloons with a good thick coat of Glossy Accents. Once they dried, I even added a second coat for lots of shine! You can see it best in the next two photos.
Once that all dried, I adhered the sentiment on the speech bubble with two layers of foam adhesive to pop it up above the rest, then adhered the flowers directly on the cardbase. This layering makes the scene pop just that much more! I finished off by adhering a few of the new jewels- Spring Green on the girl card, and Lemon Drop on the boy card.
I had so much fun building the scene on these! Pairing all the different sets together was so much fun – and as always, I love how well all the Pretty Pink Posh products work together!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day!
Hi everyone, Rina here. I am a BIG fan of shaker cards, so today I thought I would make a mini shaker birthday card. I love this smaller size; you do not have to use too many sequins to make a huge impact.
I am using the Bunny Friends, Birthday Friends and Fly Away Friends stamp sets for today’s card. I am also using the larger Scallop Square die to create the shaker frame. I am coloring the bunny and balloon images with 4 copic markers: RV0000, RV21, RV25, RV29.
I adhered all these layers with Tim Holtz collage medium. Before you adhere the solid square in pink, fill the shaker well with sequins. I used the Friendship Mix, Mini Gold Star Confetti, Sparkling Clear Stars and 3mm Sparkling Clear Sequins.
To create the sentiment I cut out a thin piece of black paper and white heat embossed the Happy Birthday sentiment from Fly Away Friends. I wrapped the piece around the shaker frame. Once the sentiment is in place, adhere the bunny and balloon images to the middle of the card. To finish off the card, I accented the stamped images with Spectrum Noir Sparkle pen in Clear and adhered the new Watermelon Jewels to the outside of the shaker.
Once the card front is all complete, adhere the shaker to a 4 ¼ x 4 ¼ inch card base!

Hello, Gemma here today sharing a card using the beautiful new Cherry Blossoms stamp set and coordinating dies.
I wanted to create a background using the flower images, and add some dimension with layers.
Two of the flowers in the set work really well layered, so I began by stamping and gold heat embossing the larger of the flowers, along with the leaves. I set the stamps up in a cluster on one stamp block, making it quicker to stamp the background.
On a seperate piece of card, I stamped and gold heat embossed lots of the smaller cherry blossom flower, then die cut them with the coordinating die. I chose two colours of Zig clean colour real brush markers – 071 flesh colour and 026 light pink – and coloured in all the smaller die cut flowers. I love how these markers blend so easily without water.
Next, I adhered the embossed panel to a card base, and rounded two opposite corners with a 1/2 inch corner chomper.
I added the die cut flowers to the card base with foam tape, over the top of the larger flowers.
Thanks for joining me today.
Hello Pretty Pink Posh fans! This is Yana and today I am sharing video tutorial showing how to create a colorful birthday card for a girl using the Birthday Friend stamps.
Pretty Pink Posh has many other stamp sets from the Friends series and many of them can be used to create a card like this. The characters within these sets maintain their size so you can easily combine friends from different sets to tell a story on your cards.
I picked pinks and yellows for this project as primary colors and made it into a birthday card for a girl, by using greens and blues you can easily change it up and make into a birthday card for a boy.
I started working on my card by stamping nearly all of the images from this stamp set in Copic Marker friendly ink onto white cardstock panel. The only image I didn’t stamp was the little candle. I colored my images using Copic markers. I used:
I cut my images out using the coordinating dies and also die-cut identical shapes out of sticky fun foam – I often prefer to use a solid fun foam shape to foam adhesive squares. This adds a lot of stability to my foam mounted elements and prevents sagging.
Next, I white heat embossed the birthday sentiment onto a gray cardstock panel, foam mounted it in the center of a 4 ¼ x 5 ½” white panel and added my colored elements around it. In a way it looks like there’s a Birthday party going on on this card and the friends are dancing and having lots of fun!
Finally, I embellished my card using the sequins I used for my color combo inspiration – I added a lot of sequins in various sizes filling in the gaps in between the images. I also coated some elements using a shimmer pen.
Hi Everyone! It’s Melody here today. I have a project to share created with the Cherry Blossoms Stamp Set and the Cherry Blossoms Coordinating Dies. I was so excited when Pretty Pink Posh added flowers to their product line and the new Cherry Blossoms are definitely a favorite.
Let’s start out by talking about the card front. I used the new Stacked Edges 2 Die. There are three dies in the die set and I am using the v shaped die for inspiration for the layout. I cut the die twice, once from white cardstock and again from black cardstock. I layered the die cuts in the middle of card, adding white cardstock at the top and a patterned paper on the bottom.
At the top of the card I stamped a sentiment from the Encouraging Greetings Stamp Set in black ink. Next I stamped the flowers and leaves on watercolor paper in white pigment ink and embossed with white embossing powder. The flowers and leaves are colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brushes.
When the flowers were dry, I die cut with the Cherry Blossoms Coordinating Dies. Once I was happy with the placement of the flowers and leaves I added them to the card front with glue and foam tape. In the center of each flower I added a Watermelon Jewels.
Today’s card video tutorial shows off how to colour your stamps without fancy crayons or markers! It’s Justine again, taking over the Pretty Pink Posh blog! I’m excited to be here with you again bringing you another video tutorial! Today I am using some of the fun new release stamps Cherry Blossoms and Encouraging Greetings! I am generally quite intimidated by colouring, so I always love to figure out ways to colour without needing a lot of colouring skills!
Good morning! Heather here this morning to share another Something Old, Something New card with you – the idea is to mix together both older and newer Pretty Pink Posh products – and to show you how AMAZINGLY well all of Pretty Pink Posh’s products work together! Today’s card is definitely not one to tackle unless you have a bit of spare time – but the results are SOOO worth the effort! Check out that SPARKLE!
I played with the new Sparkle Dot Patterns 2 Stamp set and some of the newly released (and AMAZING I might add!) Jewels – a brand new addition to the Pretty Pink Posh line. I’m in love with them, as you may be able to tell on this card! I also used the new Happy Easter Script Die – and a couple of older releases: Easter Blessings and the classic Scallop Frames Dies.
So I started off by stamping the bottom border from Sparkle Dot Patterns 2 Stamp set on a panel of white cardstock repeatedly with soft gray ink. I did this so that once I finished the card, if I used a jewel too small to cover the dot, or misplaced it slightly, you wouldn’t see a black circle peeking out. It was also helpful for the Clear Droplets I added, since you can’t see it under there either.
Then was the slowest part! I add alternating rows of Aquamarine, Lemon Drop, and Watermelon Jewels. I filled in the centers of the pattern with 4mm Clear Droplets. I used alternating sizes of the jewels – mostly so I didn’t have to sort through for one size, or run out! My jewel picker was very helpful with placement. There are lots of options for adhesive – for this I used tiny dots of Glossy Accents. It was nice and sturdy to hold everything in place, and I like that since it dries glossy, it just adds to the look of the Clear Droplets.
Next up, I die cut a large Scallop Frame from aqua cardstock, then stamped and heat embossed my image from Easter Blessings in the negative die cit so as not to waste anything!
I colored the image with Chameleon Colored Pencils, then die cut with the coordinating Easter Blessings Dies. I also die cut the Easter from Happy Easter Script Die twice – once from pale yellow, and once from white to adhere together with a glue pen for a bit of a more sturdy and dimensional sentiment.
I adhered the frame using Double Sided Foam Sticky Strips (SOOO perfect for thin dies like this!) and the lily using Double Sided Foam Squares carefully placed between the jewels.
These jewels are SOOO beautiful! They are super sparkly and fun in real life – kind of hard to fully capture in a photo.
I definitely think this is the longest I’ve spent on one single card in a while! I almost feel like I should frame it and use it as a decoration – haha!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day!
