Hello, crafty friends. It’s Leica here and I have a circle shaped card to share with you all, featuring stamps and coordinating dies from the May release. For this card, I used the new Nautical stamp set. Let’s begin.
Next, I stamped, colored, and cut the images from Nautical stamp set. I squealed out loud when I saw the coordinating die for the Life’s An Adventure sentiment! I love that Paulina included that for this wonderful set and I hope we see more coordinating dies for sentiments – teehee!
To finish the card, I white heat embossed the waves onto the blue panel and then adhered the stamped images down. I then adhered the inked panel onto the white circle. To make the card base, I die cut another 4.5″ circle in white cardstock, scored at the .25″ mark and glued that to the panel.
That’s all for this shaped card. I hope you like my take on this Nautical Stamp Set and that I have inspired you to create with it.
Let’s start with the circle card. To begin, I die cut a white cardstock using a 4.5″ circle die and another one in 4″. I then ink blended the smaller circle with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide ink and sprayed some water for some interest. I also cut a small part of the circle in white cardstock for the grass area and inked with Twisted Citron Distress Oxide. The scallop edge is cut using Scallop Borders Dies. I ended up with 2 layers of the grass area, because the inked smudged on the first layer so I fixed my mistake by adhering another layer on top. In the end, I liked the look of the double scallop edging for the grass.
Next, I stamped, colored, and cut the images from the Bee Friends stamp set. I then stamped the bee trails on the circle panel and the sentiment on the grass piece. Lastly, I adhered the stamped images onto the card panel using liquid glue and the bees with foam tape for dimension.
Hey crafty friends, Elaine here for Day 2 of our blog hop. I’m sharing a seaside themed card with the amazing new stamp set Nautical. To help build the cute scene I also used some other Pretty Pink Posh goodies and I have them linked throughout the post.
Firstly, I stamped out my images and coloured them with copic markers. The numbers I used were:
Red: R59, R39, R29
Blue: B99, B97, B95
White/Grey: C3, C1, C00, 0 (blender)
Yellow: Y15, Y13, Y11
I then went ahead and cut out the images with the Nautical coordinating dies and set them aside while I worked on the circle scene element of the card.
To create the layered circle scene, I cut 4 circles from heavyweight white card using the largest circle die in the Lets Partydie set. One of the circles I left whole and blended on some Distress Ink in Tumbled Glass for the sky. This created the base layer. The next layer I freehand cut a shape to represent ‘land’ or a ‘bank’ for the lighthouse to sit on. I used Distress ink in Vintage Photo for the land layer. For the wavey layers (there are 2) I used the small scallop border die from the Stitched Borders 4 die set to create waves. Both layers were ink blended with Distress Ink in Faded Jeans. I adhered all the layers together with liquid adhesive. To give the waves a little more interest and definition I used a white paint pen (you could use white acrylic paint or white gouache on a paintbrush) all along the top edge of the waves to help them stand out and give the look of sea foam or waves breaking. Before stamping on the birds, I gently laid my boat and lighthouse on to the scene to give me an idea of where the birds needed to go. Once stamped with a black ink I filled them in with a black copic marker (100). I adhered the lighthouse and boat to the scene and left to fully dry.
As a base for my coastal scene, I cut a piece of navy card stock to 4.25” x 4.25” and layered that on top of a piece of stripy patterned paper which measured 4.5” x 4.5”. The two layers were adhered together with liquid adhesive and then secured to a white square card base measuring 5” x 5”.
For the sentiment I stamped out the ‘Life’s an Adventure’ sentiment with a navy ink on white card and cut out with the coordinating die. The circle scene and the sentiment were then adhered to the front of the card. Lastly, to finish off the card, I popped a few white clay confetti hearts here and there and I love how they pop on the dark navy background.

Hello, crafty friends! Leica here today with a card featuring the new Tulip Cover Plate Die. I love that this is an A2 sized die and you can easily make beautiful cards for any occasion with this product.
To begin, I die cut the Tulip Cover Plate Die in white cardstock. I then colored the negatives with Copic Sketch Markers. Next, I made an A2 card base and ink blended the front with Picked Raspberry and Antique Linen. I sprayed some water and splattered white and black acrylic paint for added interest to the background.
I then adhered the cover plate die onto the card base with liquid glue. Next, I paper pieced the negatives onto the card. Super easy, right? The Get Well Soon sentiment is from Simple Sentiments stamp set – I cut up the sentiments so that it would fit on the tag.
That’s all for this simple but beautiful card. I hope that you enjoyed today’s card share and I can’t wait to see your take on this cover plate die.

Hi everyone, Jane here and I’m so excited to be sharing a sneak peek of the new die sets by Pretty Pink Posh which will be released on May 3rd!
To create my first card, I cut a piece of watercolor paper to 3.25 inches by 8.25 inches. Next, I used various colors of watercolor to paint the background and then set it aside to dry. Then, I cut the Slimline: Floral Cover die from white cardstock and added foam tape to the back for some dimension. The panel was then adhered to the watercolor background and the edges were cut using a paper trimmer.
Next, I used the You are Special script die and cut it from white cardstock. The sentiment was stacked three times to create dimension. The top layer was ink blended to match the watercolor background. I cut a strip of white paper and cut the ends using scissors. Next, I used foam tape to adhere the white paper strip to the background and then adhered the sentiment on top using liquid glue.
The entire card front was glued to a white slimline card base and that finishes the first card!
My second card showcases the Tulip Cover Plate die. To create this colorful card I used a combination of ink blending and masking.
To start, I cut the Tulip Cover Plate die from heavy weight white cardstock. Keep the negative die cut pieces from the die cut since you will need them for masking. The tulip panel was adhered to a heavy weight piece of white cardstock using liquid glue.
After the panel was ink blended, I removed the masks (die cut pieces). Then, I used white card stock to cut another piece of the cover die and glued it onto the ink blended panel. This will cover up all the white lines on the tulips and vase that were ink blended and creates a nice finished look to the card.
The coordinating ribbon and tag dies were cut using scrap cardstock. I stamped the sentiment “missing you” from the Simple Sentiment stamp set on the tag and adhered it to the card front behind the bow using liquid glue. The entire panel was then adhered to an A2 white card base and that completes the card!
My last card features the new Tool Background die set and the new Layered Stars stencils. To create this card, I first ink blended a background using various green, teal and blue dye inks. Then, I used one of the the Layered Star stencils and masked off the larger stars. I used a white pigment ink and a large blender brush to create a starry background.
Next, I die cut the Tool Background die from white cardstock and used thin strips of foam tape to adhere it to the blended background. The central sentiment was cut from white cardstock and layered twice to create dimension. I then adhered this to the center of the card using liquid glue.
The entire card front was adhered to a white A2 card base and the finishes the card.
Thank you so much for stopping by today! Be sure to stop by the Pretty Pink Posh store on May 3rd for the full release!
Hi Friends! It’s Dana here today and I am excited to be showing you a little sneak peek into some of the new stencils coming to Pretty Pink Posh on May 3rd. There will be four new stencils available for the release and today I will be using three of them. Let’s get started…
For my first card I am using the new Geraniums Stencil. This stencil coordinates perfectly with the previous released Geraniums stamp and coordinating die set.
For my card panel I used the new Mini Polka Dots Stencil. This is a “must have” stencil, such a great basic! I used the same blending brushes as before, I just didn’t add any more ink and used a light hand to get softer colors.
Next, I used the Scallop Ovals Die. I stamped my sentiment from the new Flower Bouquets stamp set directly onto the inside piece of the oval frame and then attached the pieces to my card panel. Lastly, I attached my floral images with foam adhesive around the edges of my frame.
My next card uses the new Flourishing Fuchsias Stencil.
For my card panel, I again used the Mini Polka Dots Stencil. This time I did a tone on tone background with Distress Ink in Peacock Feathers. Once my card was finished I added a few white paint splatters to my background and floral images. Lastly, I used the Simple Sentiments stamp set for my sentiment.
Thanks for joining me today. I love how these coordinating stencils allow you to quickly and easily add color to your stamped images. I hope you give them a try! I know you will love them too.
Hello, Gemma here today and I’m excited to share a look at the new Nautical stamp set from the upcoming May 3rd release!
For my first sneak peek card, I have gone clean and simple.
I stamped a boat, ship’s wheel and birds from the Nautical stamp set and coloured them with copic markers. I die cut them with the coordinating dies, layering some more die cuts behind for dimension.
Next, I die cut the Spring Scene die from grey card and again from white card. The circle frame from this die makes a perfect porthole. I cut a piece from of gel plate printed background for the water, made with salty ocean, mermaid lagoon and blueprint sketch distress oxides. I layered the frames over the top, then adhered it to my square card base.
I added my images to the card, then stamped a fun sentiment from the Nautical stamp set on the card base to finish.
For my second card, I created a night scene. On my A2 card base, I masked off an area for the water and blended on tumbled glass, mermaid lagoon and blueprint sketch distress oxide inks.
For a hill, I die cut the smaller Window Frames die and coloured with mowed lawn and pine needles distress oxide inks, then added to my scene.
The Nautical stamp set has a fabulous lighthouse image. I stamped this and a boat from the set, then coloured them with copic markers and die cut them with the coordinating dies. I added extra die cut layers for dimensions, then adhered them to my card.
I added a moon from the older Camping Friends stamp set, then stamped a sentiment from the Nautical stamp set to finish my night scene sailing card.
This set can be used for so many different occasions, including Father’s Day. We’ll have more sample cards with this set in the near future.
Hi! It is Melody on the blog. Today I am going to give you a sneak peek at the new 4th of Julystamp set and 4th of July coordinating dies, which release on May 3rd. Makes me look forward to the summer months ahead!
I started by cutting a piece of kraft cardstock for the card front and stamping fireworks in red and blue, leaving room to stamp the white fireworks.
I gave the red and blue ink a chance to dry, then rubbed a powder tool applicator over the whole card so that no embossing powder would stick where I didn’t want it. I stamped the rest of the fireworks in Versamark Ink and embossed with white embossing powder.
I stamped the banners and rockets in the stamp set in black ink and colored with Copic Markers, adding a few details with a white gel pen. I stamped America in Versamark Ink and embossed with white embossing powder. I die cut all the images with the 4th of July coordinating dies.
I die cut the sentiment with the Simple Strips Dies and attached all my elements to the card front. I finished off the card with a little bling with a few Pearl White Jewels.
Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you have enjoyed a peek at the new release!
Hello, crafty friends! Leica here and I’m excited to share a couple cards I made using new stamp sets that release on May 3rd. Today, I am featuring the Spring Circles Stamp Set and Flower Bouquets Stamp Set.
For the first project, I made a slimline card using the Spring Circles stamp set and coordinating dies. To begin, I cut a 3.5” x 8.5” panel and inked with Tattered Rose and Victorian Velvet distress oxides. I then cut 3 scallop circles from Valentine Circles dies and inked the first one in Tattered Rose. For the 2nd circle, I inked in the top half with Tattered Rose and the bottom with Victorian Velvet. The 3rd circle was inked with Victorian Velvet.
Next, I stamped, colored, and cut the images from the Spring Circles stamp set. I adhered each one to the scallop circles.
I then white heat embossed the sentiments from the Simple Sentiments stamp set on a strip of black cardstock. Lastly, I adhered all the elements down onto my card panel.
The Spring Circles coordinating dies come with a unique piece that I used to make a matching tag for my card. I hope you like this bonus!
For the second card, I stamped, colored, and cut the beautiful flowers from the Flower Bouquets stamp set.
I then cut a 3.5” x 8.5” panel and inked with Wilted Violet, Milled Lavender, and Spun Sugar. To add interest, I sprayed some water and splattered acrylic paint on the panel. Next, I cut the new Slimline: Floral Cover die set in white cardstock. I then cut the sentiment from the You Are Special Script die set in gold glitter cardstock.
Next, I cut a white cardstock to go behind the floral cover die to make the gold sentiment stand out more. I then adhered it onto the inked panel. The floral bouquets were adhered with liquid glue and the one in the pot was foam mounted for dimension. I thought my card needed something else, so I added the cute little birds from the Spring Robins stamp set.
When I finished the card, I had an extra image that didn’t make it on my card, so I made a matching tag.
I hope that you like my cards and tags and that I’ve inspired you to create with these 2 beautiful stamp sets.
Thanks for stopping by, join us tomorrow for another sneak peek of the May 3rd release!
