Sneak Peek: Halloween Borders + Halloween Critters

Hello friends, Tammy here! The upcoming Halloween release (releasing on August 10th) from Pretty Pink Posh is absolutely SPOOKTAKULAR! I had so much fun creating this slimline card and coordinating tags using the new Halloween Critters and Halloween Borders stamp sets! 

Sneak Peek: Halloween Borders + Halloween Critters

To begin, I stamped the images from Halloween Critters, colored with Copic markers, and die cut with the Halloween Critters coordinating dies. Next, I cut a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock using the largest die from the Slimline: Peekaboo Windows Dies. I cut a circle from masking paper and placed it in the middle of the panel and ink blended the background using Milled Lavender, Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, and Black Soot Distress Oxide inks. I removed the masking paper and lightly inked the moon with gray ink to give the moon some dimension.

Next, I die cut 2 grassy borders from green cardstock and birch trees from black cardstock using the Nature Essentials Dies. I then stamped the spooky fence 2 times in black ink from the Halloween Borders stamp set and die cut the borders using the Halloween Borders coordinating dies. I attached the grassy borders to the bottom of the inked panel, then tucked the fence borders under the grass, overlapping them to fit the length of the card. I then adhered the black birch trees to my card before attaching the critters with foam tape for dimension. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment in black ink across the moon and attached the completed card to a black 3 1/2 x 8 1/2″ card base to finish.

Next, I created a fun set of tags to coordinate with the slimline card. 

Sneak Peek: Halloween Borders + Halloween Critters

I stamped the images from Halloween Critters, colored with Copic markers, and die cut with the Halloween Critters coordinating dies.  Next, I cut 2 black scalloped tags using the Scallop Square Tags. I then cut Bristol smooth cardstock to fit inside the scallop tags and ink blended then as I did the slimline card. I then stamped the spooky fence 2 times in black ink from the Halloween Borders stamp set and die cut the borders using the Halloween Borders coordinating dies. I attached the grassy borders to the bottom of the inked panel, then tucked the fence borders under the grass, cutting off the edges to fit the width of the tag. The birch trees were tucked behind the fence borders before attaching the critters with foam tape. I stamped the sentiments from the Halloween Envelopes stamp set in black ink along the grassy borders, then finished off the tags by adding a couple of stamped bats, also from  Halloween Envelopes.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you are inspired to create some Halloween projects with the fa-BOO-lous new Halloween release!

Hugs, Tammy

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.

Sneak Peek: Halloween Envelopes

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.

Sneak Peek: Halloween Envelopes

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.

Sneak Peek: Halloween Envelopes

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.

Sneak Peek: Halloween Envelopes

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.

Sneak Peek: Halloween Envelopes

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.

Sneak Peek: Halloween Envelopes

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.

Sneak Peek: Halloween Envelopes

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

Sneak Peek: June 2022 Stencils

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today and I am excited to be back showing you a sneak peek of the new stencils coming to Pretty Pink Posh on June 16th.

This release includes five new stencil sets: Layered Construction Trucks, Layered Cars, Layered Roads, Layered Dinosaurs and Dino Dig. The Layered Roads and Dinosaur Dig stencils make great backgrounds and coordinate perfectly with the stamp sets being released this month too. I created two cards to share with you today so let’s get started.

Sneak Peek: June 2022 Stencils

I started my card by making my card panel with the Layered Dinosaur stencil. This is a three pack of stencils that layer perfectly to create the cutest dinosaur panel. I used dye inks and finger daubers for all of my blending. 

Sneak Peek: June 2022 Stencils

Next, I trimmed my panel down and attached it to an A2 card base. I then used the new Dinosaur Friends stamp set to stamp my images. I colored them with Copic markers and used the new Dinosaur Friends dies to cut them out. Lastly, I used the Spring Circles die set to create my frame for my sentiment and stamped images. 

Sneak Peek: June 2022 Stencils

My next card uses the new Layered Cars stencil set

Sneak Peek: June 2022 Stencils

The layered Cars stencil pack is also a three pack of stencils. I once again used finger daubers and dye ink to create my card panel. Each layer lines up on top of the previous layer to give the vehicles such fun details.

Sneak Peek: June 2022 Stencils

Once I trimmed my panel down I added three coordinating strips that had been die cut with the Simple Strips die. Lastly, I used the new Across the Miles stamp set to stamp my sentiment and finish my card.

Sneak Peek: June 2022 Stencils

Thanks for joining me today. I can’t wait to see what you create with these fun new products! Join us tomorrow as we reveal all of the new products and the bundles go up for sale.

Sneak Peek: Dinosaur Additions + Dinosaur Friends

Hello, Gemma here today and I’m excited to share some sneak peeks of two fabulous new stamp sets – Dinosaur Friends and Dinosaur Additions. These sets release on June 16th.

Sneak Peek: Dinosaur Additions + Dinosaur Friends

For my first card, I stamped out images from both sets and coloured with my copic markers. I then die cut the images with the coordinating dies.

Sneak Peek: Dinosaur Additions + Dinosaur Friends

I added extra die cut layers behind the dinosaurs, then arranged all the images on a white card panel. I left space to stamp two ‘rawr’ words between the images. This is from the Dinosaur Additions stamp set.

Sneak Peek: Dinosaur Additions + Dinosaur Friends

On a 4.75” square card base, I customised a greeting using two of the sentiment stamps from the new Dinosaur Friends stamp set.

Sneak Peek: Dinosaur Additions + Dinosaur Friends

On my second card, I created a mini scene using the volcano image from the Dinosaur Additions stamp set. I cut two pieces of patterned paper to create a dramatic sky with ground, then adhered this to my A2 card base. I left space to the side to stamp a sentiment from the Dinosaur Additions stamp set.

Sneak Peek: Dinosaur Additions + Dinosaur Friends

The images used are from both Dinosaur Friends and Dinosaur Additions, coloured with copic markers and die cut with the coordinating dies.

Sneak Peek: Dinosaur Additions + Dinosaur Friends

I adhered some images with liquid adhesive and others with foam tape, placing them both on the background area and on the white space, to break out the scene.

Thank you for stopping by! Join us tomorrow for a sneak peek of the new stencils coming on June 16th.

Sneak Peek: Construction Trucks

Hello friends, Tammy here. I had so much fun creating these cards featuring the new set, Construction Trucks that releases on June 16th. This set is so much fun, and would be perfect to create party favors for a construction themed party!

Pretty Pink Posh- Sneak Peek: Construction Trucks

To begin, I stamped the images from the Construction Trucks Stamp Set onto Bristol smooth cardstock and colored with Copic markers. I then die cut the colored images using the Construction Trucks Coordinating Dies.

Pretty Pink Posh- Sneak Peek: Construction Trucks

To create this A2 card, I began with an A2 panel and attached black and yellow cardstock strips die cut using the Simple Strips Dies. I adhered the strips diagonally, cutting off the excess to create a fun background. Next, I cut a smaller rectangle panel from Bristol smooth cardstock. I created the dirt hills using the new Layered Roads Stencil, and blended Antique Linen and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide inks. I then splattered some Vintage Photo ink, thinned with water, to add some interest to the hills. Next, I ink blended the top of the card with Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide inks and attached it to a white mat before attaching to the striped background. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment in black ink and attached it to an A2 white card base to complete my card.

Pretty Pink Posh- Sneak Peek: Construction Trucks

I also created a fun, coordinating box card using the Construction Trucks stamp set. I began by cutting the base of the box from black cardstock. I added some yellow cardstock strips die cut using the Simple Strips Dies, attaching them diagonally as I did the A2 card. Next, I finished assembling the base of the box. The backdrop was cut from Bristol smooth cardstock, and the top was ink blended with Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide inks. I created the dirt hill using the Layered Roads Stencil, and blended Antique Linen and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide inks. I then splattered some Vintage Photo ink, thinned with water, to add some interest to the hill. I then attached my backdrop to a white mat and adhered it to the box. 

Pretty Pink Posh- Sneak Peek: Construction Trucks

I attached the colored images to the box, using foam tape on some for both dimension and to add some stability to the box. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment onto a strip of white cardstock and attached to the front of the box card and finished it off with a little truck attached with foam tape.

I hope you were inspired to create some fun Construction themed projects! Stay tuned for more sneak peeks of the upcoming June 16th release!

Hugs, Tammy

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

Good morning! It’s Lindsey here today and I’m excited to give you a peek at the brand new Across the Miles stamp set releasing on June 16th. This darling transportation set coordinates perfectly with several other stencils and stamps being released this month. I’ve got three projects to share today, so let’s get started!

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

First up is a card that uses just Across the Miles, so you can see how cute it is on it’s own. I stamped all the vehicles in the set on golden/dijon yellow, mint, and light grey cardstock and cut them with the coordinating dies.

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

I then arranged them in rows of traffic on my card base. You’ll notice that half of the images in the set are right facing and the other half are left facing.  

I finished my card off by layering a couple of off-set squares and stamping a sentiment from Across the Miles. Don’t you just love the font pairing? I’m a huge fan!

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

There is a darling truck in this set, and it was begging to be filled, so I did just that on the next card.  

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

Let’s start with the card base.  I began by alternately stamping “vroom!” and “beep!” until the center of the card base was filled. To keep the background a bit more subtle, I layered a piece of vellum on top.  

Next I stamped the truck and did the tiniest bit of coloring with a white gel pen for the lights and a black marker for the tires. It’s surprising how adding just this tiny bit of black really draws the eye in.

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

I had SO many ideas for fillers for this truck, but I chose to make a birthday truck by filling it with balloons using the Balloon Numbers and Balloon Alphabet stamp sets and dies.  The balloon strings weren’t quite long enough for my tallest balloon (“4”), so I stamped two strings, connected them together, and hid the overlapping portion behind the mint party balloon.  

I added tiny little sentiments from Let’s Party to the center of the balloons and popped everything up on my card base.  

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

A little sprinkling of glossy black jewels and my card was finished. 

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

On my final card in the trio I wanted to pair Across the Miles with one of the new stencils- Layered Roads. In order to create a larger scene, I chose to make a slimline card. 

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

I blended the roads in a very dark grey onto a stitched base from the Slimline: Peekaboo Windows Dies. I only used two of the stencils, the road and the dotted lines.  With some trial and error, I found that the easiest way to create crisp, vibrant white lines is to use a gel pen with the stencil.  

This card happens to be traveling to a friend who lives across the country in a place full of sunshine and palms, so I pulled out the Hugs (sun, clouds) and Summer Wreath (palm tree) stamp sets and dies to add a little color the scene. 

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

Though subtle, I wanted to point out the cute Pinstripe Stencil on my card base. Due to the nature of the stripes, this stencil is really easy to align for a taller card base and added just a bit of fun and color.

I stamped the sentiment at the top, and to add just a little emphasis on the desire to quickly send those smiles, I added “vroom!” in a couple places. :) 

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

Here’s one last peek of the cards all together.

Sneak Peek: Across the Miles

Thanks so much for visiting today! Make sure to come back again tomorrow for more fun peeks of this fabulous new release!

Sneak Peek: May 2022 Dies

Sneak Peek: May 2022 Stencils

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today sharing a sneak peek of two of the new stencils coming to Pretty Pink Posh on May 16th. There are five new stencils being released, which include a fun Pinstripe, Mini Grid, Layered Letters and the two I will be using today. 

Sneak Peek: May 2022 Stencils

For my first card I am using the new Layered Spring Flowers stencil pack. This is a three pack of stencils that can be layered together to create the most adorable background. I used dye ink and a blending brush to create my panel. The first two layers create the flowers and then the final layer is the flower’s center. For the last layer I used Glitz Glitter Gel in white to give the flowers a little extra sparkle. 

Sneak Peek: May 2022 Stencils

For my sentiment, I used the new Celebration Scripts set. This is a great set of sentiments, perfect for so many occasions. Next, I used the Spring Foliage dies to create my white flowers and leaves. These dies are just the sweetest. There are so many options for building bouquets, floral clusters and accents. I know it is a set of dies that I will use often. Lastly, I added Light Orchid and Creamsicle pearls to my flower’s centers to finish my card. 

Sneak Peek: May 2022 Stencils

My second card uses the new Crafty Background stencil set

Sneak Peek: May 2022 Stencils

The Crafty Background stencil set is a pack of three stencils that layer together to make the most adorable background. It’s perfect for your favorite crafter and coordinates perfectly with all the new craft supplies sets that will be available with the new release. To create my panel, I used dye ink, finger daubers along with a little post-it tape for some masking. 

Sneak Peek: May 2022 Stencils

Next, I used the dies from the new Crafty Days die set to create my frame. I then used the Crafty Critters set for my sentiment, mouse and craft supplies. I colored the images with Copic markers and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. Lastly, I attached my frame to the center of my card panel with foam adhesive and attached everything to an A2 card base. 

Sneak Peek: May 2022 Stencils

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

Enjoy your day, Dana

Sneak Peek: Celebration Scripts + Spring Flowers

Hi folks, Kavya here with another fun sneak peek of the new release! If you love crafting and florals – THIS IS THE ONE FOR YOU! I absolutely love what PPP did with the theme! My card today is an extension of my love for creating mini envelopes for my cards. I created a mini bouquet of flowers this time around to hold the gorgeous florals from the Spring Flowers set

Sneak Peek: Celebration Scripts + Spring Flowers

I first started off by creating my background by ink blending Cracked Pistachio and Peacock Feathers distress oxide inks. I then used the Pinstripe Stencil create a fun background. 

Sneak Peek: Celebration Scripts + Spring Flowers

For the bouquet, I used a square piece of cream cardstock. I then folded it using the Kite fold like shown in the diagram but just make sure that the edges overlap instead of meeting at the center. Fold two flaps at the top and you are done! 

Sneak Peek: Celebration Scripts + Spring Flowers

Then, I filled the bouquet with some stamped and colored Spring Flowers and added a sentiment from Celebration Scripts to finish off my card.

Sneak Peek: Celebration Scripts + Spring Flowers

Wasn’t that fun? Love how this turned out! Check back tomorrow for more sneak peeks of the May 16th release!

Happy Crafting, Kavya
