Autumn Theme Week: Day 3

Autumn Theme Week: Day 3

Hello crafty friends, Davina here to share so fun autumn inspiration. Pretty Pink Posh always has the prettiest fall themed products and I pulled together some of my favorites for you. There are several layered leaf stencil sets, and I gathered together a newly released stencil to use as the background for my scene. 

Autumn Theme Week: Day 3

I started this fall card by inking the Layered Fall Wreath stencil onto the largest Eyelet Rectangle layer. I used shades of yellow, coral, orange, brown and even green for these leaves. I splattered the panel with brown and gold ink and put aside to dry. Next, I die cut the super cute Acorn Shaker Die from creamy cardstock, and inked it with several shades of brown. The large layered mushroom from the Fall Mug Additions is one of my favorite dies, with that fancy little ruffle. I colored it in shades of cream and coral, then added some splashy details. 

Autumn Theme Week: Day 3

The main accent of this scene are the two sweet birds that are also inked die cuts. I cut two of the birds from the Stitched Birds dies, and used the residual ink on my brushes to gently add some color to these cuties. After adding some small copic details, I assembled the pieces. 

Autumn Theme Week: Day 3

I adhered all of my die cut pieces to the stenciled background, then added a stamped sentiment from Autumn Pumpkins to the center. I loved the look of the crisp brown lines so I decided to stamp a few leaves from the same stamp set, and tucked them around the scene. I finished this off with a sprinkling of sequins from the Matte Gold Confetti Mix.

I just love how all of the products from Pretty Pink Posh mix so well together, it makes so easy to put together beautiful cards no matter what your crafty style is. Thank you for dropping by!

Autumn Theme Week: Day 1

Autumn Theme Week: Day 1

Hi friends! It’s Stefanie here today kicking off Autumn Theme Week and I’ve created a cute pumpkin shaker on a simple stamped background to share with you!

Save 15% on all items in our Thanksgiving section during theme week!

Autumn Theme Week: Day 1

To create the card, I started by using the Pumpkin Shaker Dies and die cut the outline of the pumpkin 6 times on white cardstock. I stacked them together using liquid adhesive and sandwiched some acetate between the top 2 layers to create a shaker window.

Autumn Theme Week: Day 1

I filled the shaker with a combination of the gorgeous Matte Gold Confetti Mix and Sparkling Clear Confetti Mix. Then I sealed off the back of the pumpkin shaker with cardstock that I ink blended evenly with Concord and 9th’s Marmalade orange.

The stem and leaf at the top of the shaker are also from the Pumpkin Shaker Dies, but this time I only used single layer die cuts. I ink blended the stem and leaf using Concord and 9th’s Wheat and Sprout colored inks, respectively and adhered them behind the pumpkin shaker.

Autumn Theme Week: Day 1

Now that the shaker was complete, I moved on to create the background. I wanted the pumpkin shaker to be a bright focal point and opted for a simple stamped background using the cutest mini stamps from the Fall Jar stamp set. I stamped them all out using Pumice Stone distress oxide for a soft and subtle look.

Autumn Theme Week: Day 1

The pumpkin shaker was then adhered directly onto the background and I propped up a sentiment underneath. The sentiment is from Sentiment Strips: Fall stamp set, embossed in white on a banner from the Sentiment Strip Dies which I colored brown using Copic marker E44.

And finally the card is finished! Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you like how my card turned out!

Boo Ghosts Shaker

Hey, friends! Leica here. Halloween is quickly approaching and I wanted to share a fun and easy Halloween shaker card using a mix of Pretty Pink Posh products. Let’s jump right in!

Pretty Pink Posh: Boo Ghosts Shaker

To start, I created a cute A2-sized background by applying orange watercolor on watercolor cardstock. Once it dried, I stenciled the adorable ghosts in Lost Shadow Distress Oxide. For their faces, I used Black Soot, and Wilted Violet for the stars. To make the shaker, I cut a frame from teal glitter cardstock, added acetate, and foam tape around it to create the shaker well. Inside, I used a combination of Spooky Glass Beads and 4MM Summer Sequins Mix as shaker bits.

Pretty Pink Posh: Boo Ghosts Shaker

Since I wanted the ghosts to remain visible, I only added sentiments to the front of the card. I cut the word “boo” from the Large Boo Shadow in black glitter cardstock and the shadow die in vellum. For the sub-sentiment, I stamped one of the sentiments from the Sentiment Strips: Halloween stamp set and cut it using a rectangle scallop die from the Sentiment Strips. Finally, I glued the card panel onto an A2-sized white cardstock, and voila, my card is complete!

Thank you so much for stopping by, and I hope I’ve inspired you to have fun with your stash. Happy crafting!

One Stamp Set, Three Different Ways + Video

Hi, friends! It’s Lauren and I am back with a new video making three cards – they all have a similar layout, but they’re for a different holiday! The new Holiday Trees Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies make beautiful Christmas cards, but they’re also great for Halloween and Thanksgiving.

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

I started with hot foiling all three of my sentiments with Satin Metallic Hot Foil and the Large Boo, Thankful Script, and Merry Christmas Hot Foil Plates. I used the shadow dies from the Large Boo, Thankful, and Merry Christmas Shadow Dies to cut each of them out. Next I cut out the second largest Eyelet Rectangles Die out of white, kraft and black cardstock.

For my backgrounds, I have a piece of pink, yellow, and mint blue cardstocks A2 in size. I used the Deco Leaves Stencil to add in a subtle background with Saltwater Taffy, Dried Marigold, and Evergreen Bough Distress Inks respectively. I also added some ink to the edges of the background and used Distress Mica for some beautiful splatter.

While my backgrounds were drying, I started stamping out my trees from the Holiday Trees stamp set for each of my cards. I used four different colors per card and you can see how I stamp each set of trees in today’s video. The Halloween card uses Distress Inks in Milled Lavender, Saltwater Taffy, and Spiced Marmalade as well as Morning Mist VersaFine Clair Ink. The Thanksgiving card uses Distress Inks in Dried Marigold, Scattered Straw, and Vintage Photo as well as Fallen Leaves VersaFine Clair Ink Pad. Finally, the Christmas card uses Distress Inks in Evergreen Bough, Kitsch Flamingo, and Salvaged Patina as well as Warm Breeze VersaFine Clair Ink Pad. When all the stamping was done, I used the Holiday Trees coordinating dies to cut them out.

I assembled each of the cards together similarly as you can watch in today’s video. The Eyelet Rectangles are adhered to the center of the background with foam adhesive, the Holiday Trees added with liquid adhesive and foiled sentiments with foam adhesive. For some final touches I added Purple Shimmer, Espresso, and Strawberry Shimmer Confetti Mixes for some extra shine!

I hope today’s cards bring you inspiration for all kinds of holidays and I would love to know what other holidays you think this layout could also work for… Maybe you’ll see more holidays from me with these trees!

Holiday Birds Scene

Hi there, crafty friends! It’s Leica, and I’ve got a cozy square Christmas card to share using dies and a stencil from the new October release.

Pretty Pink Posh: Holiday Birds Scene

First, I grabbed a white card panel that’s 5 inches square. I made a pretty background using the Layered Winter Wreath and some green inks from Pigment Craft Co. To make things interesting, I added some splatters of gold paint.

Pretty Pink Posh: Holiday Birds Scene

Next, I put together a birdhouse using the Decorative Birdhouses dies from before. I glued it onto the card panel and added some Christmas trees from the Love From Afar dies. Then, I made a couple of cute birds using the new Holiday Birds dies. I gave them a little lift by sticking them on the card panel. I also included some greenery from the Holiday Mug Additions dies and a sweet little flower from the Winter Foliage dies.

Pretty Pink Posh: Holiday Birds Scene

For the sentiment, I cut out “Happy Holidays” in gold cardstock and the shadow in vellum. Finally, I glued the card panel onto a 5-inch square card base.

Thanks a bunch for hanging out with me today! Have a blast with your crafting!

Festive Jolly Stockings

Hello, Gemma here today with a card using one of my favourites from the October release – the Build a Stocking die set.

Pretty Pink Posh: Festive Jolly Stockings

I love that there are so many different looks that can be created with the Build a Stocking die set. Change the colours, add some sparkle, switch the stocking toppers….so many possibilities! I decided on a colour palette of pink and navy, with gold sparkle accents.

Pretty Pink Posh: Festive Jolly Stockings

There are backing layer dies for each of the size stockings, then decorative layers to add over the top. As it’s difficult to adhere anything on top of glitter card, for the spotty stocking I cut it from both navy and gold glitter card, so I could inlay the gold glitter spots. You could skip this step if layering over something non-glitter.

To add glitter stripes to the light pink stocking, I first adhered some double sided tape to the stocking, then covered with gold glitter.

Pretty Pink Posh: Festive Jolly Stockings

On a 5.25” square card base, I adhered a piece of ivory speckled card, slightly smaller than the card base to give a border. On this, I stamped a sentiment from the new Holiday Stockings stamp set, using a brown ink. Next, I added some white glitter foliage, cut using the previously released Pine Sprigs die set.

Finally, I added the three stockings using some foam tape for dimension.

Thanks so much for joining me today! I hope this card inspired you.

Whimsical Holiday Cupcakes

Hello crafty friends, it’s Davina here. The beautiful October release from Pretty Pink Posh is available now and you will love it! This is the largest release ever, and full of so much good stuff to bring your winter and holiday projects to life. I created a tiered cupcake stand using the incredibly cute Christmas Cupcakes stamps and dies. I combined serial other new products and previously released items to being this fun card to life. 

Whimsical Holiday Cupcakes

I started by using the pretty Pierced Snowflake Plate on Bristol Smooth Cardstock, and inkblending an ombré citrus green background. Once it was completely dry, I trimmed it down 1/4 inch, to  make room for a striped patterned paper background layer. I stamped the cute cupcakes and colored them in before cutting them out with the coordinating dies. I used the cake stand from last summers Fancy Cake Dies to pile on my cupcakes, then I added a bow from the new Holiday Mug Additions

Whimsical Holiday Cupcakes

I wanted to add some small stamped details and I found all of the images, and a sentiment, that I needed from one older stamp set. The Holiday Envelopes stamp set from last year had all of the great snowflakes, pine boughs, and the holly with berries images that I used. I stamped some of these in colored ink, including the sentiment, and added them to my treats. Finally, I adhered my images to the inky background, using foam tape behind the cupcake stand, and added my sentiment to a cute scalloped banner from the Sentiment Strips Dies

Whimsical Holiday Cupcakes

There are so many wonderful new products to play with and so much inspiration to see. Make sure you hop along with both the New Release Blog Hop and then the Instagram Hop, to see how magically the Design Team used the products and for your chance to win!

Merry Stocking Shaker

Hello friends! It’s Leica, and today I’ve got a delightful Christmas shaker card featuring the Stocking Shaker Die as the star of the show. This card is a breeze to recreate, so let’s dive right in!

Pretty Pink Posh: Merry Stocking Shaker

First things first, I took some pink cardstock and cut it into a large rectangle using the Eyelet Rectangles Dies. Then, I used the Stocking Shaker to cut out the center area of the stocking. I taped the edges of the stocking onto the pink card panel and added a piece of clear acetate to the back of the stocking shape. To create the shaker part, I attached foam tape to the back of the card panel and filled it up with the Christmas Tree Mix. For the back of the shaker stocking, I used a piece of red cardstock that I decorated with dots using the Mini Polka Dots stencil.

Pretty Pink Posh: Merry Stocking Shaker

For the sentiment, I cut out “Merry” in silver glitter foam and stamped “Christmas” in black ink on the top part of the stocking. Next, I cut out a cute Christmas tree from green cardstock, glued it onto the acetate of the shaker, and added some dots using Liquid Pearl in White Opal.

Pretty Pink Posh: Merry Stocking Shaker

I then cut a piece of patterned paper to fit an A2-sized card and elevated the eyelet rectangle on the card panel using foam. Finally, I glued the panel onto a standard A2-sized card base.

That’s the lowdown on my shaker card! Thanks a million for hanging out with me, and I hope you’re smitten with today’s card share. Have an absolutely wonderful day!

Festive Holiday Mug

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today and I am excited to be back to share a holiday card that uses the new Holiday Mug Additions die set. I love that this set can be combined with the original Winter Mug dies to give you so many possibilities! 

Festive Holiday Mug

I started my card by using the Layered Candy Canes stencil set (2 layers) to create my card panel. I ink blended white pigment ink and Distress Oxide ink in Candied Apple onto a pink cardstock panel to create my background. 

Festive Holiday Mug

Next, I used the Winter Mug dies along with the Holiday Mug Additions dies to create my mug and accessories. I die cut the pieces from white cardstock and used finger dabblers to add ink to each of the individual pieces before assembling. I then used the Eyelet Rectangle die to die cut a vellum rectangle for the center of my card. I attached my mug and accessories to my panel with foam adhesive. For my sentiment I used the Sentiment Strips: Christmas stamp set along with the Sentiment Strips dies. Lastly, I added a few white paint splatters to my card to finish it off. 

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my card. I can’t wait to see what you create with these fun new products!!

Enjoy your day, Dana
