Today we have another special post by Lori Hairston. She created these darling Easter tags using both new and old Pretty Pink Posh products.
Let’s take a look at her post and video, shall we?
Hi, there! I’m hopping by with an Easter card featuring two cute Pretty Pink Posh bunnies from the Easter Friends stamps and coordinating dies.
You might notice that one bunny is sporting a cute pair of glasses. You can find those on the Holiday Pals stamp set.
The card base and front are die cut using the largest die from the Scallop Square Tags dies. The pieces aren’t really attached just held together with a white clothespin. The inside sentiment is stamped on the smaller scallop square.

Today we have a special post by Lori Hairston, one of the guests in our March blog hop. She showed me a picture of these handmade baskets that don’t require a fancy die and I knew we had to showcase it here on the blog.
Let’s take a look at her post and video, shall we?
Hi, there! I’m happy to be here to share these mini Easter picnic baskets. So fun to make and they turn out adorable, especially when topped off with that sweet little bunny from the Easter Friendsstamp set! The bunny and egg are cut out with the coordinating dies and the tag is part of the Stitched Notes Dies.
What is it about Easter baskets? I’ve always loved them. When I was little I used the same one every year. One that was passed down from my uncle. My daughter, Lauren, used the exact same Easter basket and I’m keeping it for Louisa. She’ll be the fourth generation to use it. It’s old, it’s worn, but I love it!
I’ve sized these to hold 2 plastic eggs. Even though they’re mini, they’ll hold plenty to give as an Easter treat.
You can check out the video to see how easy the baskets are to make and there’s a couple of quick tips on the tag, too.Click the graphic below to watch it!
Louisa (even though she’s only 4 1/2 months old) is definitely getting one of these. Her momma can keep it and put it out every year. If you make an Easter Picnic Basket to give away, I bet it will be loved enough to keep from year to year.
Hello everyone, Joni here sharing a tag project in collaboration with Pretty Pink Posh and Ellen Hutson using foil. Foil is a trendy product these days and you can use it in a lot of different ways. I’ll show you a way to use it that’s easy, but you still get beautiful results.
First, I distressed the white cardstock with Tim Holtz Distress Ink pad in Tattered Rose. Then die-cut it with the Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Duo 1 dies.
Next, I distressed another white cardstock and distressed it with Tim Holtz Distress ink pad in Evergreen Bough. Then die-cut it with the small oval scallop die from the Decorative Tag 1.
Next, I die-cut more white small oval scallop (x3), I only used the oval frame stacked with glue, below the distressed small oval scallop die-cut.
Next, I put a hole on top of the tag using the hole reinforce from Decorative Tag 1. Then, I added some dot background using Copic markers in E02 and R000.
To add foil on the deer, I splatter the MINC Reactive Mist on a cardstock and let it dry.
Hi! It’s Melody here on the blog today sharing my project for the Thanksgiving Theme Week! I am going to my sister’s house for Thanksgiving and wanted to bring her a little gift for hosting us all. I am using theGiving Thanks Stamp Set and the Giving Thanks Coordinating Dies for my project.
I started with a kraft gift bag and randomly stamped leaves from the Giving Thanks Stamp Set. This a quick and easy way to dress up a simple bag.
Next I covered a tag with watercolor paper. I stamped the sentiment in gold ink and embossed with gold embossing powder and then used distress inks to create the background. I colored a variety of pumpkins, acorns and leaves with Copic Markers and die cut with the Giving Thanks Coordinating Dies and attached them to the tag. I used 6mm Metallic Gold Sequins and 4mm Metallic Gold Sequins to finish off the tag.
I don’t have a card for today but I will share my traveler’s notebook story with Pretty Pink Posh products! Traveler’s notebooks are very popular right now, and I love to use it too! The size is just the perfect fit for me; so handy to carry and easy to keep nearby. I will show you how I made my DIY traveler’s notebook insert and share how I used my Pretty Pink Posh products for memory keeping and journaling in my traveler’s notebook.
Here’s a video to show how I created the notebook and decorated the pages with Pretty Pink Posh stamps and dies.
Hi everyone! This is Vera and today I have Hexagon Magnetic Bookmark to share with you featuring the Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Hexagons Dies.
Magnetic bookmarks are popular lately and they’re so easy to make! When I saw the Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Hexagons Dies I knew that there were so many options for both cards and other projects.
To create these magnetic bookmarks, I used white cardstock and flexible magnet sheet (you can use flexible magnet tape too). The images are Pretty Pink Posh clear stamps : Camping Friends | Holiday Pals | Rainy Days and the sentiments are from the Birdie Friends Stamp Set. I blended the hexagon die cut with dye ink pad and colored the images using Zig Clean Color Real Brush. On the back side, you can write the words as desired using a black marker and white gel pen.
Here’s a video to show how I created these bookmarks from the start to finish.
Hello everyone, Joni here for peak of the new upcoming Stitched Essentials 1 dies that release tomorrow, May 1st.
For this project I created a bookmark using this cute tag dies and coordinate using the cute chicks from the Birdie Friends stamp set. The chicks were stamped directly on the bookmarks and colored it with Copics. The sentiments I used were from Wplus9 Going Places stamp set.
To begin, I die-cut he tag only to where the black arrow is pointing.
Next, I die-cut again to prolonged the tag and make it in to a bookmark. The pink arrow is showing where the cut is supposed to stop. The black arrow shows that you have to flip the plate and cut this way.
This picture is just showing you where the cut should stop.
Next, I created a tassel for the bookmark. If you want a video tutorial, I used THIS one as a guide to make a proper tassel.
Hi friends, Lisa here today! I have a cute project featuring sequins and seed beads along with the Birdie Friends and Rainy Days stamps and dies. With wedding season upon us, I thought this would be a fun shower gift!
I began with a Soft Stone card stock cut to recipe card size. Using the Stitched Tabs Dies, I cut the tops of the panels for divider tabs.
Next, I dry embossed portions of the dividers using a complimentary embossing folder.
I made a small pouch from an office supply product. This had several small pouches on one sheet that would fit into a notebook. I cut one of the pouches leaving two of the pre-adhered sides intact. I stitched the bottom with my sewing machine then filled it with 6mm Marigold Sequins, 4mm & 6mm Marshmallow Sequins, 10mm Sparkling Clear Sequins and Silver Shimmer Seed Beads. The top was stitched shut and the pouch was added to the front divider with Thermo Web adhesive.
The sweet bird from the Birdie Friends stamp set was stamped, die cut and water colored. It’s added to the decorated panel with two layers of foam tape. A bit of Wink of Stella was added for good measure!
Everything was tied together with Yellow Chevron Twill ribbon. Using a Stitched Tags Die, I stamped a sentiment from the Rainy Days Stamp Set then decorated it with matching sequins and seed beads.
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day!
I selected frames with matting included. You’ll see this has space for three photos.
I cut two panels of patterned paper, and two from white cardstock. The white panels were dry embossed with a floral pattern. These were added to the two mats with tape runner adhesive.
The fun began here with the placement of the images! I added the two black and white photos then the Sweet Pea Sequins. This will be a little gift to my granddaughter for her nursery!
We hope that today’s post and project inspired you to think outside of cards and stretch your stamps, dies and embellishments; the possibilities are endless!
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day!
To begin, I first stamped my clear cellophane bags with white StazOn ink using the cute images from Birdie Friends stamp set. Just make sure to clean your stamps with Hero Arts Ultra Clean as this will be sure to remove the white ink on your stamps.
Next, I die-cut white cardstock using the Scallop Circles dies set then distress the sides with Tumbled Glass distress ink, but instead of using the scallop portion, I used the negatives. I also used the negative of the large scallop and use the small circle scallop to create a cream border for my card tag (see the picture below).
To create a card tag I simply die-cut another negative circle and scored the top portion of the circle and adhered with glue. The distress on top and the scored portion on the bottom.
To create my grass for the tag I distressed the white cardstock and used the large scallop die to die-cut and get the negative. Then die-cut negative on the green portion using the tiny scallop border from Stitched Borders 4 dies.
The look of the tag card.
For the goodie bag, I die-cut an antique gold cardstock using the tiny scallop border from the Stitched Borders 4 dies and adhered at the bottom of the cellophane for added touch on the bags.
On the tag card, I stamped the sentiment “Sending Hugs” from the Birdie Friends stamp set using gold embossing powder. The cute birdie images are from the same stamp set they were watercolored using ZiG Clean Color Real Brush 60 and die-cut with their coordinating dies.
