Hello friends! It’s Leica here and today I am sharing a sneak peek of the new Winter Circles stamp set. There are 6 different images in this set and they are perfect for Christmas cards and tags. There is also a coordinating die set – a plain circle and a scallop lace circle. I decided to use all the images for my card.
For my card, I first cut a 5×7 panel in white 110 lb cardstock. I then cut a gold cardstock measuring 3.75″x7″ and a teal cardstock measuring 3.5″x7″. I glued these down in the center of the white panel. Next, I stamped, colored, and cut the images from the Winter Circles Stamp Set. I colored them with Copic Sketch:
I then cut 6 of the scallop lace circles in white cardstock and glued the images on top of each one. Next, I foam mounted them onto the card panel. The sentiments are from the new Holiday Scripts stamp set. I white heat embossed the “merry” and “season’s greetings” on a strip of black cardstock and gold heat embossed the “Christmas” on white cardstock and cut with its coordinating die. I then foam mounted the sentiments onto the card base.
Lastly, I adhered the base onto a card panel – 7″x10″ scored at the 5″ mark.
That’s all for this Christmas card! I hope that you enjoyed today’s sneak peek and that I’ve inspired you to create holiday cards for your loved ones!
Hello, Gemma here today and I’m excited to share a look at the new Christmas Candles stamp set from the October 13th release! This is a beautiful set with a fabulous choices of images. I’m sharing two different styles of card, to show how versatile this set is for your holiday projects.
The candle and lantern images in this set look amazing against a dark background. I stamped out one of the lantern images and some holly from the Christmas Candles set and coloured them with copic markers. I’ll list the colours below. I then die cut the image with the coordinating die.
Next, I cut a panel of dark blue patterned paper to cover my 4.25 card base. For the glow from the lantern, I cut a small circle of handmade gel printed background, created using dried marigold and squeezed lemonade distress oxide inks. Tennis elbow means I’m not able to ink blend as much as I would like to right now, so this is a simple (and arm friendly) alternative to creating a background and glow. If you enjoy ink blending your backgrounds, that will look fabulous too.
To create a snowy place for the lantern to sit, I die cut a piece of white glitter card using a die from the previously released Scallop Borders 2 die set. I adhered this onto my card base, then added the lantern on top with foam tape.
I love the scripty sentiments in the Pretty Pink Posh stamp sets, especially the coordinating dies for them, as it makes them so much more versatile. I embossed the Merry script word, from the Christmas Candles stamp set, with WOW Opaque Bright White embossing powder on the same patterned paper as the background. I then die cut the word out with the coordinating die. I added a couple of layers of navy die cuts offset behind the word, for dimension and a shadow effect.
I embossed a second sentiment from the set on the background, then adhered the word die above. To fill some of the space in the bottom half of the card, I embossed another sentiment from the Christmas Candles stamp set on navy card, and adhered to the card with double sided tape. I then added the holly images to the card to finish.
For my second sneak peek using the Christmas Candles stamp set, I’ve gone for an elegant CAS design. This card would be great for mass producing, as it’s quick to create and looks beautiful.
The candles image is coloured with copic markers and die cut with the coordinating dies. I added a second layer behind for dimension.
For the berries, I thought I’d use some of the beautiful new Metallic Gold pearls. These come in a mixed size pack, and I used the smallest size here. They are really beautiful embellishments.
I cut a 4 inch square panel of white card, and heat embossed sentiments from the Christmas Candles stamp set with WOW Metallic Gold Ruch Super Fine embossing powder.
I cut a piece of gold card to fit my 4.25 card base, then adhered the white panel on top, followed by the candles. As a finishing touch, I used some Nuvo White Blizzard glitter drops on the candle flames.
Thank you for joining us for today’s sneak peek. We hope to see you again tomorrow!
Hi Friends! Jane here and I’m thrilled to be sharing a sneak peek at the the new Poinsettia Corners and Holiday Scripts stamp and coordinating die sets part of the October 13th release by Pretty Pink Posh.
To create my first card, I used a piece of white woodgrain cardstock cut to A2 size. Next, using the winter frame die and white cardstock, a frame was die cut and adhered to my woodgrain background.
Next, the images from Poinsettia Corners were stamped using Versamark black ink on Bristol smooth cardstock. The images were colored using various shades of reds, pinks and green colors of Karin Pro brush markers. A white gel pen used to add white highlights to the images. Each image was die cut using the coordinating die and adhered using foam tape to the white background.
The sentiment was stamped using the new Holiday Scripts stamp set and cut using the coordinating dies. Foam tape was used to adhere the “Merry Christmas” sentiment to the background. A few of the new Cherry Red pearls were added for embellishment. The card front was adhered to an A2 card base and that finishes the card.
My next card uses the new Holiday Scripts stamp and coordinating die sets as the center feature. I love all the different combinations of sentiments this set offers!
Using an A2 piece of Bristol smooth cardstock, the following distress oxide ink colors were blended: tattered rose, spun sugar, victorian velvet, wilted violet, kitsch flamingo, seedless preserves and worn lipstick. Next, I used the first part of the Layered Ornament stencil to ink blend grey tops using a grey dye ink. Then, the following stencil layer was added and I used the coordinating ink colors in distress inks (not oxides) to ink blended background.
After the background was dry, I cut it down to 3.75 inches by 5 inches and mounted it to a white card base using foam tape.
The sentiments from Holiday Sentiments stamp set were stamped, cut and mounted with foam tape to the center of the card. A few of the new Ivory Pearls were added to the background and that completes the card!
Thank you so much for stopping by today! Be sure to stop by tomorrow for more sneak peeks of the new October 13th release by Pretty Pink Posh!
Hello friends! It’s Leica here today with a sneak peek of the new Snowmen Friends Stamp Set. This is such a fun set that is perfect for any Christmas projects. It includes 6 different snowmen in adorable winter accessories.
For my slimline card, I cut the largest rectangle from the Slimline: Peekaboo Windows Die in white 110lb cardstock and ink blended the top portion with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink and the rest with Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink. I then splattered some white acrylic paint for a snow look. I also white heat emboss the snowflakes and the Let it Snow sentiment from the same Snowmen Friends Stamp Set.
Next, I stamped, colored, and cut thesnowmen and foam mounted them onto my card base. Here are the Copic Markers I used – BG10, C5/3/1, R39/37/35, RV25/23/21, YR07.
I then cut a strip of red cardstock and white heat embossed the sentiments from the new Holiday Scripts Stamp Set. I used liquid glue to adhere them under the snowmen. I then added some Marshmallow Pearls here and there for added dimension. Lastly, I adhered the slimline card onto a card base.
That’s all for this pink Christmas card. I hope you enjoyed today’s sneak peek! See you tomorrow for another look at the October 13th release.
Hello, Gemma here today and I’m excited to share a look at the new Village stamp set, along with the Village Additions stamp set, both from the upcoming October 13th release! Have fun creating Village scenes, for Christmas time and beyond.
I stamped out images from both sets with copic friendly black ink. I used a colour palette of turquoise green, red and yellow, then repeated these colours around my card to keep things cohesive. I added some neutrals too. I then die cut the images with the coordinating dies.
For my background, I cut a panel of navy card and added embossed details using the new Snowfall stencil and white embossing powder. I then adhered this to my 5 x 7 card base.
The sentiments are from the fabulous new Holiday Scripts stamp set. I heat embossed both on coloured card in white. I die cut the large Merry word with the coordinating die, adding extra layers behind for dimension. I cut the additional sentiment into a strip and adhered both onto my card. Next, I added the Village stamp set images to my card, followed by those from the Village Additions stamp set. I added some extra die cut layers behind the images at the front, to give more dimension. There are many more stamps included in the Village Additions set that aren’t shown in my sneak peek today.
I love the vintage vibe to these sets and how you change the scene with the different images from the Village Additions set.
I hope you enjoyed today’s card. Join us tomorrow for another sneak peek!
Hi friends! It’s Dana here today sharing a sneak peek of the new stencils coming on September 13th. This release is packed full of amazing fall goodness and the stencils are some of my favorites.
For my first card I am using the new Falling Leaves stamp, stencil and coordinating die set. I love these combo sets, so fun and easy to use. I started my card by stamping my leaves in a variety of fall colors. I used aqua instead of the traditional green… what do you think? I thought it was a fun change and unexpected.
Once my leaves were stamped, I placed the stencil over the outline images and added coordinating dye ink with a blending brush. I then used the coordinating dies to cut them out.
Next, I splattered the leaves with a little white and gold paint. I then attached them to my card panel with foam adhesive in a random pattern.
Lastly, I used the sentiment included in the Falling Leaves set to stamp my sentiment.
My next card uses the new Leaves Background stencil.
I started my card by making my panel with the Leaves Background stencil. I sprayed the back of the stencil with Pixie Spray and added dye ink in shades of orange to my three rectangles. I then attached the three rectangles to my card panel with foam adhesive.
To finish my card I used the new Cozy Fall Critters set to stamp my bunny and fall foliage. I colored the images with Copic markers and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. Lastly, I attached my images and sentiment to my card with foam adhesive.
Thanks for joining me today and I can’t wait to share the rest of my release projects with you all.
Hi Friends! Jane here, sharing some sneak peaks of the dies from the September 13th release by Pretty Pink Posh!
My first card is a shaker card using the Leaf Frame die set cut using white cardstock. To create the shaker card, I first created a background using various dye inks mixed with water and ink “smooshed” them on watercolor cardstock using a piece of scrap acetate. While the background was drying, liquid glue was added to the Leaf Frame and sheet of acetate was adhered to create a shaker window.
Double thick foam tape was used to line the edges of the window. The shaker was filled with various colors of 4mm sequins and the background was adhered to the back to create the shaker.
Next, I used the images from Cozy Fall Critters stamp set and the sentiment from Woodland Thanks stamp set and added them to the front of the card. The entire card was then mounted to an A2 card base and that completes the card!
Next up, I’m featuring the new Elegant Pumpkin die set to create Thanksgiving placards.
To create these placards, die cut the Elegant Pumpkin die set out of heavy weight white cardstock. Next, using a large blender brush/blending tool, blend a background using yellow, orange, pink and red die inks. After, the blending was done, liquid glue used to adhere the pumpkins to the ink blended background. Scissors were then used to fussy cut the tops of the images leaving the bottom portion with a little room to add a sentiment.
Next, I used scrap heavy weight cardstock and cut it into a square shape about 3.5 inches square. The squares were scored and folded to create a rectangle card which served as the stand for my placard holders. The pumpkin placeholders were stamped using sentiments from Woodland Thanks stamp set using black ink. Then, the images were adhered to the small rectangle cards using double sided tape and that finishes the project.
My final card features the new Fall Foliage die set. To create this slimline card, I first created a watercolor background using various shades of purple, pink, orange, red and yellow colors. After the watercolor panel was dry, I used the fall foliage die set to cut the various shapes. Then, using the slimline peekaboo windows dies(smaller size die), I die cut a piece of white cardstock and used black ink to stamp the sentiment from the new Falling Leaves Stamp Set.
Using tiny pieces of foam tape, each piece of foliage was adhered to the white die cut panel. Then, the edges were trimmed using scissors. Next, the panel was adhered to a light pink cardstock sized 8 inches by 3.5 inches. The entire panel was then adhered to a slimline card base and that complete the card.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you found some inspiration using the new fall dies which will be available on September 13th.
Hello friends! It’s Leica here today with a sneak peek of two new Pretty Pink Posh stamp sets – Cozy Fall Critters and Falling Leaves that will be released on September 13th. I combined images from these sets to create a fun circle shaped Autumn card.
I started by cutting a 5″ circle in teal colored patterned paper and a 4.5″ circle in kraft cardstock. I then adhered the smaller panel to the larger one.
Next, I stamped the images using Memento Rich Cocoa ink on 110lb white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers.
Fall leaves:
YR14, Y18/13
YG67/63/61
YR07/04/02/00
R39/37/35/32
Acorns – E44/43/42
Mouse – C5/3/1, R32/30
Sweater – BG09/05/15, YR23/21/20
The larger leaves are from Falling Leaves Stamp Set and the rest of the images are from Cozy Fall Critters Stamp Set. I added white highlights using a gel pen and cut them with their coordinating dies. I then arranged the leaves in a wreath form and foam mounted them onto the kraft panel. I also foam mounted the adorable mouse on the wreath. The greetings are from the Falling Leaves Stamp Set and I love how there is a die for the word Autumn.
Lastly, I cut a 5″ circle in white 110lb cardstock, scored at the .25″ mark and adhered the flap to the teal panel to complete my card.
Thanks for stopping by today! Join us tomorrow for a look at the new die sets that are part of the September 13th release!
Hello, Gemma here with a sneak peek to share with you all. I’m using the new Fall Corners stamp set, which is perfect for pretty autumn cards.
I stamped out one of the corners from the Fall Corners stamp set. There are 3 pumpkin arrangements in this set, along with additional images. I coloured the image with copic markers, using fun non-traditional colours for the pumpkins. I die cut the image with the coordinating die, adding two more layers behind for dimension.
For my background, I blended pumice stone distress oxide ink over the previously released Woodgrain Circle stencil. I’m using a 4.75″ card base and blended the pattern directly onto this.
I used the previously releasedStitched Strips dies to cut some pearlescent card in autumnal colours, adhering them on to my card base. I then added the Fall Corners image over the top.
For my sentiment, I used the new Falling Leaves stamp set. I heat embossed the large ‘Autumn’ word onto pearlescent copper card, using white embossing powder. I die cut it out with the coordinating die, again adding a couple of die cut layers behind for dimension.
I stamped an accompanying sentiment from the Falling Leaves stamp set directly on the card base, then adhered the die cut word above.
To finish, I adhered a few Espresso jewels around the sentiment. These are my favourite jewels for autumn projects.
I hope you enjoyed these cards using this fun set. Join us tomorrow for a look at what else is coming in the September 13th release!
Hello hello! It’s Leica here today and I have a sneak peek of a Thanksgiving card featuring images from the new Woodland Thanks Stamp Set, available on September 13th. These botanical images are absolutely gorgeous and can be used for any occasion.
For this card, I cut a 5″ square panel in yellow cardstock and ink blended the bottom with Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide Ink. I also cut a 4.5″ square in white cardstock and ink blended the center with Festive Berries and the top and bottom with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink. I splattered some water for an oxidized effect and added black and white dots using gel pens. I then adhered the smaller panel to the larger one. For the center of the card, I cut a 1″ strip and ink blended with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink and foam mounted it to the pink/red panel.
Next, I stamped the images with Memento Rich Cocoa ink on 110lb white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers – E49/47/44/43/42, G99/46/43, R39/37/35, YR23/18/13, YR07/04/02. I then tucked in and adhered the leaves behind the brown strip. The Thankful greeting is also from the same Woodland Thanks Stamp Set and I love that it has a coordinating die. I cut additional pieces to stack up for dimension. I then stamped Happy Thanksgiving on a strip of yellow cardstock and glued it under the brown strip. Lastly, I cut a white 5″ square, scored at the .25″ mark, and adhered it to the card panel to finish my card.
I hope that you enjoyed seeing my card for today! Stop by tomorrow for another sneak peek!
