Hello, Gemma here today sharing a card using the new Playful Puppies set. It teams up so well with the Happy Mail set, I decided to make a scene card featuring them both.
On a piece of white card, cut to the same size as my card base, I die cut a simple stitched diamond to create a window opening. On the card base, I blended on a light layer of blue and greens ink, for the sky and grass of the scene. I flicked them with some water for droplet details.
To help build the scene, I die cut a Picket Fence from brown card stock. I adhered this to the card base, then added the card panel over the top. I found a lovely sentiment from the Encouraging Greetings stamp set, which fit the scene and the space perfectly.
Next, I stamped lots of the images from the Playful Puppies and Happy Mail stamp sets, and coloured them with copic markers. I then die cut them with the coordinating dies.
I tucked the mailbox and the dog under the edge of the diamond window (using the Stitched Diamonds die set), then added some foam squares at the top of each image for some dimension. Then I added the bird flying down towards the scene and the ball next to the dog, both with foam tape. I love the look of the images breaking out of the window scene.
Finally, I added some of the gorgeous new jewels to the card. A few of the Sparkling Clear jewels around the sentiment, and a Metallic Silver jewel is the perfect finishing touch on the dog’s collar tag.

It’s Marge here with you today. Are you enjoying our new May Release Collection? Today I’m sharing a warm greeting card for your friends or family who are not feeling good. I hope this card will make the recipients feel better and know that we are always caring and praying for them.
Next, I trimmed Bristol paper into A2 size (4.25 x 5.5inch), then ink blended it with Distress Inks: Worn Lipstick and Tattered Rose with splatters of water and dark ink on it. I diecut Get Well Soon Script Die from Copic friendly paper three times, glued the pieces top on top, then I colored them using copic markers : W10-W8-W6.
Next, I adhered pieces of flowers and leaves on the left side of the panel as shown in the picture using a glue and thin double sided foam tapes. I also glued the sentiment on the right side . Then I adhered the panel onto A2 card base with double sided adhesives.
I’m excited to reveal all of the individual products that are part of this May 5th release. First up is JEWELS! Each package includes four sizes (3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm)! This release I went with classics and they’re going to be stunning on all your projects!

Jeanne here today and I can’t tell you how excited I am to be sharing in the sneak peeks of the Pretty Pink Posh May Release! You know I love dies and I bet you do too! I’ve got some new ones to show you today!!
The new Get Well Soon Script Die makes a big impression! For this card I inked up a background of clouds and then die cut the panel with the sentiment. What I love about this die (beyond the beautiful handwritten font) is that the three words are together on one die (they’re not meant to be cut apart) so you do an inlay technique they’re perfectly positioned with one run through your die cut machine. These three aren’t going to fall apart after you use them a few times like others I’ve had.
I chose the Playful Puppies for this get well card because no one misses me more when I’m down than my dog. She’s always ready to play or go for a walk, and if I’m under the weather there are two of us that aren’t happy!
I love making scenes with dies! The Scallop Borders 1 make a wonderful grassy yard, and the Picket Fence make it more like home!
I paired the Hugs Shaker die with the new Happy Mail stamp set. I filled it with my own mix of sequins from the store including Lemon Drop, Lemon Meringue, Sunshine Glow. If you look close, there’s another new surprise….Metallic Gold Jewels. They’re gorgeous! They look like diamonds dipped in gold!
Again I started this card with a distress inked sky. This time I cut a Stitched Borders 1 grassy hill for the Happy Mail mailbox. I stamped a sentiment on the green cardstock and attached it to the cloudy panel.
The Summer Flower sequins are the prefect embellishment for adding flowers to scenes. The size of the flowers is in proportion with the stamped images. It’s going to be a nice day!
I put yellow card stock behind the Hugs Shaker die so it looks like a sun in the blue sky! Everybody loves a little happy mail!
I hope you enjoyed today’s cards and look at some of the new dies. Join us tomorrow as we reveal the whole May 5th release!

Have a wonderful day. Make sure you visit tomorrow for some more inspiration!
Hello everyone! Amy here sharing a sneak peek of the new upcoming May 5th release. For my two projects today, I’m highlighting the adorable Playful Puppies stamp set and Playful Puppies coordinating dies.
To begin, I colored the stamped images with Copic markers and cut them out with the coordinating dies.
I created the patterned panel by stamping the two solid bone stamps with white pigment ink on A2 sized kraft card stock. After, I die-cut the panel with the frame die from Stitched Notes for the beautiful stitched detailing on the card. I stamped the sentiment with dark brown dye ink.
To finish, I foam mounted the images as shown and adhered the front panel to a top folding card base.
For the second card, I created a fun scene using the puppies. I colored the stamped images with Copic markers again and cut them out with the coordinating dies.
I trimmed Smooth Bristol paper to 5″x 3.75″. I create the clouds using an acetate stencil I made using the cloud shaped die from Stitched Borders 2 and Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. Once again, I stamped the sentiment with dark brown dye ink.
I die-cut natural card stock with a Picket Fence die and adhered the fence to the cloud panel. Then, I die-cut Smooth Bristol card stock with a die from Stitched Borders 4 to create the lawn the puppies are sitting on. I inked it with Mowed Lawn Distress Ink. To finish, I foam mounted it to the top of the fence and adhered the puppies as shown.
I hope you enjoyed my projects; thank you for stopping by. Join us tomorrow for another sneak peek!
Good morning Pretty Pink Posh friends! Heather here this morning with a peek at some of the newest goodies from Pretty Pink Posh! You may remember the butterflies from the Butterfly Friends set that was the free-with-purchase set for the January release. It will now be available for purchase on it’s own! I paired it up here with the new Simple Sayings: Life– a sweet little sentiment kit for this rainbow butterfly cards! I also managed to sneak on a few of the new colors of jewels that will be releasing!
I played with some 3D effects for the butterflies using the coordinating dies. For this first card, I used some of the simple outline butterfly images I was going to color them, but ended up liking them clean and crisp and white so well that I left them that way. I did cover them with a sparkly coat of Nuvo clear glitter drops to help them pop a little.
I used some pretty rainbow pattern paper for the base of my card. I stamped the sentiment and butterflies on the white layer, then die cut the butterflies with the coordinating dies. I adhered the white panel to the rainbow layer, then adhered the butterflies just on the body portion, leaving the wings loose and curling them up once my adhesive dried. I finished off with a few of the Sparkling Clear Jewels.
For these next two cards I used the same technique, just changed up the colors on each one!
I stamped one of the large butterflies from the set, then die cut it with the coordinating dies. I then used the coordinating dies to cut the same butterfly again (without stamping) out of a rainbow of colored cardstock. I colored the stamped butterfly to coordinate with my layers of cardstock. I glued them all together in the centers, allowed to dry, then curled up all the wings for a SUPER fun dimensional effect! I also covered the wings of the top butterfly with sparkly clear Nuvo Drops as well.
I used Stitched Borders 1 to cut some pretty edges on a strip of pattern paper for the bottom of the cards, and stamped another of the sentiments from Simple Sayings: Life, then for these two cards added a few of the new Pearl White Jewels to finish these off.
So much fun- these rainbows make me so happy! And the sentiments and butterflies are both so darling together!
Hope you enjoyed today’s sneak peek! Thanks so much for stopping by today!
Hello everyone, Joni here sharing a sneak peek of the new Pretty Pink Posh floral stamp set called Flourishing Fuchsias that releases on May 5th. It’s such a pretty set and the perfect addition to the floral sets.
To begin I stamped the images on a white cardstock and colored the images with Copic Markers then I used the Flourishing Fuchsiascoordinating dies.
Next, I distressed another white cardstock using Distress Oxides then splattered with water. Once dried I then stamped the sentiment from Encouraging Greetings stamp set stamp set.
Next, I adhered the die-cuts with foam tape and added some jewels inAquamarine.
For this second card I also used the same Flourishing Fuchsiasstamp set and coordinating dies. I just changed the background color and used a different image.

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I have a card to share with you all using theFly A Kite Stamp Set along with showing you how to create your own pop-up box card.
To begin my card I first started off with my images. I coloured these a while ago and just used them now for a card. I used Copic Markers to colour them in and then used the coordinating dies to cut them out. Once my images are ready I can begin to work on my box card.
Making these box cards are actually surprisingly easy. I first pulled a piece of blue cardstock and cut down two pieces to 5 ¼” wide and 4 ¼” tall. Out of the same blue cardstock I also cut three pieces down to 3 ½” wide and 1” tall. Once they were all cut down I could score them. For each 5 ¼” x 4 ¼” pieces I scored them at 2” and 5” on the long side, then I turned my piece 90 degrees in my scoring tool, to the short side and then scored at 2 ¼”. I repeated this step for both pieces. Then for each of the three pieces I cut, I scored each end at ¼”. So, score at ¼”, rotate 180 degrees, score at ¼” again. Once all my pieces were cut, I took them to my paper trimmer and cut down the 2” score line to the horizontal score line, and the same at the 5” score line. Then I rotated my piece 90 degrees again and cut up from the bottom to the 5” score line, cutting on the horizontal score line, just to remove the over hang. I did this to both pieces.
Now it was time to assemble the box card. I folded along all the score lines and then added a strip of adhesive on one of the flaps and adhered it to the other side of the box card. I then added strips of adhesive on each of the three long pieces and adhered one side into my card. I them removed the backers from the other side and closed the box card on top of them, this adhered both sides of the middle pieces to the inside of my box card. Then on the last flap, I added more tape and adhered that inside too. Now my box card was all ready to go.
First up I die cut down a white cardstock piece using the Stitched Borders 1 Dies and I used the little scalloped edge as a border and adhered that to the background of my box card, to make it look like white clouds. I then added strips of acetate onto the back of three of my previously stamped, coloured and die cut kites and then adhered the strings on the bottom of each too and adhered them into the middle of my card. I also adhered some clouds and a sun to the background of my card flat.
Now my images were adhered, I laid my card down flat and adhered another cloud and also stamped the sentiment ‘Let Your Dreams Soar’ in black ink onto the front of my card. At this stage my card was missing a little something so I used the same Stitched Borders 1 Dies and cut down two more small strips of white cardstock with the scalloped border and adhered those onto both side flaps of my card to finish it up completely.
I loved making this card today and I hope you enjoyed the DIY tutorial on how to make a box card without a die. Thanks so much for stopping by and I’ll catch you next time!
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 a bright and happy watercolor spring scene featuring the Fly A Kite set, which is 25% off the next 3 days!
Lots of fun layers and colors – not to mention a good sprinkle of some of the fabulous jewels!
So to start off, I did some loose and messy watercoloring to create a background – nothing terribly fancy – just blue for the sky, and green for some grass or greenery at the bottom.
While that dried, I die cut a fence from white cardstock using the Picket Fence Die.
Then, simply pick up again with the Press and Seal, place on the watercolor background, press in place, then peal off the Press and Seal. At this point I also needed to adhere the kite to the clouds, but that was easy peasy!
Finally, it felt like my scene just needed a little something more – so I stamped, colored, and die cut a bunch of the flowers using Bunny Friends stamps and Bunny Friends coordinating dies again. I didn’t end up using all the flowers on this project, but I wanted to make sure I had plenty – and those others are saved and will probably be used on something else down the road!
For extra dimension, I adhered the tops of the flowers and greenery with Double Sided Foam Squares, then used liquid adhesive to adhere the bottom of the stems to the background. This makes it feel as if the flowers are popping right out at you!
I planned on stamping a sentiment, but left everything to dry, then forgot to add a sentiment before I finished photographing the card. I’m not sure if I will add a sentiment on here or not now – it’s kind of cute as it is, and it makes it super versatile since it could be given for any occasion. What do you think – would you add the sentiment, or leave it as is?
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day!
To finish off the card, I added some
