Sneak Peek: Halloween Envelopes

Hi Friends! It’s Raquel here today. I’m so happy to be sharing some fun sneak peeks of the upcoming Pretty Pink Posh August 10th release!

This release is all about Halloween and believe me, you are going to love it. Among the cutest stamp sets of this release, there is this super adorable set called Halloween Envelopes. The envelopes are so unique and gorgeous!

Let’s dive right in and let me show you my first project. To create this fun scene, I started by using the Layered Ghost stencils set.

I wanted to achieve a purple and yellow look to my entire design so I thought Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink would do the trick for these little ghosts.

I decided to apply ink more heavily on one side and blend it softly to the other side to get this ghostly look.

These stencils are so super easy to use! With the second layer I applied Black Soot Ink for the eyes and for the third and final layer, I used Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink for the stars. I trimmed it to a 4 ¼ and 5 ½ size panel since I knew I wanted a black border to show.

Next up I stamped my Halloween Envelope in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the images with Copic markers.

I used:

Boooo and Booo for the Ghost, Y

G00 and YG01 for the little Frankestein,

YR14 and YR16 for the Spider

W0 and W1 for the Spider Web

V6, V5, V12, V1 and V000 for the envelope.

Once I die cut this image with the Halloween Envelopes coordinating dies I foam mounted it onto the Layered Ghost Stenciled panel.

I wanted to dress up the scene a bit so I decided to add some little bats and ghosts from the same set. I colored them in the same colors of the envelope.

To complete the scene, I used some more ghost from the Ghost Friends stamp set. I also used the same markers (B0000 and B000) to color these bigger ghosts. I made them wear these super fun hats and bows which I believe are just perfect and make them even more adorable!

Finally, I just had to add my sentiment, so I thought the Boo Script Die in yellow was the perfect fit.

I started out by ink blending an A2 panel of white cardstock with Span Sugar and Seedless Preserves Oxide Distress Inks.

Next I colored another envelope from the same set: Halloween Envelopes, along with some of the smaller images that come in this set. This is what I love most about this set, it has these super cute envelopes, but it also has the cutest small images that are perfect to dress up your design.

I also used Copic Markers to color my images:

V0000, V000, V12, V05, V06 for purples,

BG15 and BG000 for blues,

Y11 and Y13 for yellows,

YR16 and YR14 for oranges,

RV13 and RV00 for pinks.

BV0000 and BV000 for the envelope.

Next up I trimmed my panel to 4 by 5 ¼ inches and adhered a plastic from some packaging I had all around the back of the panel except to the top.

I hand picked some clay confetti from several sets: Spooky Fun Mix, Monster Mash Mix, Spooky Night Mix and Halloween Party Mix and put it my shaker along with some crystal glitter.

Once I closed the flap of my shaker, I adhered the envelope and small images onto the Infinity Shaker card.

Lastly, I white heat embossed the sentiment You are Spooktacular from the Halloween Critters Stamp set and placed it onto the envelope.

I hope these projects inspire you to create. Stop by tomorrow for another sneak peek of the Halloween release!

Happy crafting, Raquel

Miss You Tons

Hello, Gemma here. My card today features the fun Construction Trucks stamp set.

These images look great with a stripy yellow and black background. It’s easy to create these using the Stitched Strips die set (or the Simple Strips die set). I adhered them in a diagonal pattern on a panel of thin paper.

Copic Colours: Construction trucks: Y13, 15, 17; C1-5; N5-7; B000-00 Cone: BG000, YR04 YR16 YR18 Spade: C1-5, YR27 Dirt: E43-47

Next, I used the Stitched Banner Duo 1 die to cut the stripy panel out. This die also cuts a square in the centre, which is a great space for an image.

On an A2 card base, I stamped a sentiment and lots of the small images from the Construction Trucks stamp set. I left these background images uncoloured.

I also stamped out one of the Construction Trucks, colouring with copic markers and die cutting with the coordinating die.

I adhered the stripy banner to the card base with liquid glue, then the construction truck with foam tape to finish.

I hope you enjoyed this card. Thank you for stopping by!

Across the Miles + Video

Hello crafty friends. It’s Lisa Mears here. I love to make scene cards and today I’m sharing a scene card featuring the Layered Roads Stencil and the Across the Miles stamp set. If you would like to see how I made this card, then watch my video here.

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

Pretty Pink Posh: Across the Miles + Video

The Layered Roads Stencil is a three layer stencil that will make a road background for your cards. I added Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide ink for the grass, Black Soot Distress Oxide Ink for the road, and a white pigment ink for the dashes in the road.

Once my stencil was complete, I colored the vehicles from the Across the Miles stamp set using Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. The colors I used are as follows: Bright Yellow, Yellow, Carmine Red, Light Blue, Emerald Green, Gray, Blue, Violet, English Lavender, and Orange. After coloring the stamps, I die cut them with the coordinating dies and adhered them to my card front. I also added the sentiments “Vroom!”, “Beep”, and “Sending Smiles Across the Miles!” to the front of the card. I added the card panel to an A2 size card base.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day!

Rainbow Clouds with Stencils + Video

Hi friends! It’s Mindy with you today to share some inspiration using the Layered Clouds stencil. When all else fails or I’m in a slump, I will normally go for a rainbow. Rainbow never fails!

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

The Layered Clouds stencils is a two piece stencil. Starting with one of the layers, I’m going to ink blend a rainbow of colors using blending brushes. I’m using colors from Simon Says Stamp but anything in your collection will work for this.

The colors I’m using are Bubblegum, Grapefruit, Sunbeam, Sprout, Surf, and Lilac.

After I blended this first layer on, I’m going to place the second layer of the stencil on my background. This will slightly overlap some of my previous clouds.

I’m going to repeat my same steps as before using that rainbow of color.

After I remove the second layer of the stencil, I’m going to lightly go over the whole background with the left over ink on my blending brushes, following the rainbow down the front of the card.

I trimmed the panel down to 4” x 5 ¼” and added to a white card base.

For my sentiment, I’m using the Just A Note Script die. I die cut it once from gold mirror cardstock and twice from white cardstock to layer together for dimension.

Truly a simple card that has a strong, happy vibe. Hope you enjoyed today’s card project!

Birthday Dinosaurs

Hello friends! It’s Leica here on the blog and today I am sharing this super fun birthday card using the Dinosaur Friends stamp set paired with the Dino Dig Stencil.

To begin, I cut a 5 inch square panel in white cardstock and made the scene using the Dino Dig Stencil. I ink through the stencil with Distress Oxide Inks in Squeezed Lemonade, Vintage Photo, and Weathered Wood. I love how easy it was to create a background with this stencil.

For the sentiment, I stamped the Hope Your Day is Rex-cellent directly onto the card panel in black ink. I also white heat embossed Happy birthday onto a strip of black cardstock and foam mounted above the longer sentiment.

Next, I stamped and colored the images from the Dinosaur Friends stamp set. I then cut them with their coordinating dies and foam mounted them onto the card panel. I cut a larger square panel in teal cardstock and adhered the layers together. Lastly, I adhered the panels onto a 5.5 inch square card base.

Thanks for stopping by on the blog today! I hope that I’ve inspired you to make some cards with these products.

Maximizing Layered Stencils + Video

Hello friends! It’s Channin here and I’m so thrilled to be guesting here at Pretty Pink Posh! Today I’m sharing an adorable card featuring several products from the June release. In the video I demonstrate how to incorporate several colors on a single stencil layer and share tips for adding depth.

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

To create this card I first ink blended the background with the Layered Cars Stencils over the front of an A2 top-folding white card base. I started with stencil A and ink blended the buses in Mustard Seed and Wild Honey Distress Oxides. When I finished the buses I ink blended the smallest cars in Salvaged Patina and Peacock Feathers, then the larger sedans in Mowed Lawn and Lucky Clover, and then then finally the trucks in Candied Apple and Fired Brick. Once I finished ink blending all the vehicles, I then ink blended the traffic signals in Iced Spruce.

For stencil B, I started by ink blending the windows and tires in Iced Spruce. Then I ink blended the two traffic lights, the top one in candied apple and the bottom in Mowed Lawn. Next, I moved onto stencil C and ink blended the vehicle bumpers and bottom of the traffic signals in Iced Spruce. I then ink blended the middle traffic light in Mustard Seed and then lastly finished by ink blending the wheel centers and the details on the buses in Black Soot.

With the background finished, I then die cut a heart out of vellum using a die from the All My Love Die Set. Next I die cut four hello’s out of white cardstock using the Hello Script Die and then adhered three of the hello’s together. I then stamped and white heat-embossed a sub-sentiment using a sentiment from the Across the Miles stamp set onto black cardstock. After I heat set the sentiment I then trimmed it down to a sentiment strip and then adhered two strips of scrap black cardstock to the backside to add dimension.

Next, I adhered the stacked “hello” and the sub-sentiment to the vellum heart. I then adhered the final “hello” and another strip of black cardstock to the backside of the vellum heart, directly behind the stacked “hello” and the sentiment strip. I then finished the card by adhering the heart to the card front

I hope you enjoyed my card and video. Thank you so much for stopping by!

Birthday Cats & Presents

Hello, Gemma here. Cats love boxes and I think they’d love a pretty pile of birthday presents too. I teamed the Cuddly Cats stamp set with the Build a Gift die set on my card today.

I began by die cutting the Build a Gift die set from different colours of card stock. I’ve kept my die set connected so I can easily cut all the pieces out at once. It’s fun to create the different boxes using the elements in this set.

Next, I stamped and coloured some of the Cuddly Cats with copic markers, then die cut them with the coordinating dies.

Copic colours

Cats: N0-3; W3-W7; N1-7 Cheeks: R30 R20 R22

On a 5.25” square card base, I stamped greetings from the Birthday Scripts stamp set. I then adhered the presents on the card using foam tape, and the cats peeking out with liquid glue to finish.

I hope you enjoyed this card. Thank you for stopping by!

Layered Cars Stencils

Hello crafty friends! It’s Leica here today. I have a fun shaker card using the Layered Cars Stencils from the June 2022 Release. It’s super easy to make and the shaker element always makes me smile. I’m sure anyone would be happy to receive this card.

To start, I cut a white cardstock in 5.5 inch square. I ink through the Layered Cars Stencils using Distress Oxide Inks in Barn Door, Black Soot, Festive Berries, Fossilized Amber, Iced Spruce, Mowed Lawn, Mustard Seed, Squeezed Lemonade, Tumbled Glass, Weathered Wood. For the windows, I used the Ranger Pigment Ink Pad in Glacier White which turned the colors lighter. I used finger daubers to color in the stencils. They are perfect for small areas.

Next, I cut a sheet of acetate to 5.5 inch square and stamped the sentiment in 4 different areas using Stazon Jet Black ink. I then cut a brown frame using square dies and created a well for my shaker. I then foam mounted 3 sides of the frame onto the card panel and added some 4mm Summer Mix Sequins inside before removing the backing of the last side of the frame. Lastly, I adhered the card panel onto a 5.5 inch square card base.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope that I’ve inspired you to create some cards with the Layered Cars Stencils. I’m sure you’ll enjoy this new design. Happy crafting!

Praying For You Slimline

Hello crafty friends! It’s Leica here today with a slimline card, using the Spring Foliage and Praying for You Script dies. I am loving the new die cuts from the May release and it’s nice to take a break from coloring stamped images sometimes.

To start, I cut the Slimline Floral Cover Die in white cardstock and adhered it onto a piece of white cardstock. I then cut a bigger panel in Kraft cardstock as a border.

Next, I cut the Praying for You Script in real cardstock and adhered them onto the center of the card panel. I then cut some of the flowers from the Spring Foliage dies in various colored cardstocks and adhered them onto either sides of the card panel.

Lastly, I adhered the card panel onto a slimline-size card base. Super easy, right? I hope that I have inspired you to create cards using the Spring Foliage and Praying for you dies. Make sure to tag us on Instagram so we can see your beautiful projects!

Have a great day!

Mini Slimline Cards + Video

Hi friends and welcome back! It’s Mindy with you today to share inspiration using the Layered Roads stencils and Across The Miles stamp set.

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

Pretty Pink Posh: Mini Slimline Cards + Video

I love how these layered roads come together. The layering of the stencil makes it super quick and easy to create a background.

I’m using Twisted Citron & Mowed Lawn distress oxide inks for my hills, Pumice Stone and a hint of Hickory Smoke distress oxide for the pavement and a bit of white paste for the lines of the roads.

Don’t let coloring the images intimidate you! Do a little emboss resist to quickly add color to the images from the Across the Miles stamp set.

I have a secret to share …… these two mini slimline cards were a happy accident. I meant to create one card but I trimmed the background down incorrectly. Since I put a lot of effort into the background, I was not going to let it go to waste.

I did sneak in one additional sentiment that came from the Birthday Scripts stamp set.

I think these sets are super versatile because not only are they great for little kids, but I think adults too!

Hope you enjoyed today’s inspiration.
