Hey, Sunshine! Melissa here with you today and I’m lucky enough to be sharing a couple of cards created with the new Pretty Pink Posh June Release stamps and stencils.  Let’s jump right in and make a splash!

My first card uses the new Layered Hibiscus stencils to create my background, using bright and playful colors to set the tone of the card. These sweet tropical flowers make me smile and will be sure to brighten your day!  After creating my background, I used the new Sunburst Pierced Plate to bring in the texture and accentuate the theme of my card.

I then cut white cardstock using the Sun Shaker die and added yellows and a bit of rusty orange to create an ink-blended sunshine.  I added this to the center of my card using foam adhesive to allow it to pop off the background.

Next, I die cut and stamped my flowers using images from the Happy Hibiscus stamp set with coordinating dies. I colored them using my Copic Markers and added then beneath my sunshine, once again using foam adhesive. To finish, I die cut and stamped my cheerful sentiment using the Happy Summer stamp set and coordinating dies.  What a happy card to create!

I had such fun creating my second card for you. I began by using the new and oh, so adorable, Layered Summer Fun stencils. Sunglasses, flip flops, sunshine and more, create the cutest background for your summertime cards.

I then used vellum, white cardstock, and the Eyelet Circles dies to create a layered base for my focal points. I used the Summer Sips stamp set and coordinating dies to bring in some fresh, summer drinks, sunshine, and hibiscus.  I used a fun technique on my stamped images by adding color through ink blending.  I added just a touch of shading using my Copic Markers.  

After I adhered my stamped images, I used the new Summer Banner Greetings stamp set and the Banner Greetings 2 dies to create my sentiment. Adhering it on a diagonal was a fun and unexpected twist that balances out my card.  

Ready to see some wonderful samples from the team using these products? It’s so fun to see how we can use the same products in such a variety of ways!

It’s been such a treat to create for you today.  Happy crafting with these new supplies…you’ll love every minute. Join us tomorrow as we reveal all the new products!

Hello Crafty Friends! It is Hanh here with you today and I am thrilled to show you a little sneak peek of the upcoming June Release. This awesome release is packed with everything happy and fun about summer. I had so much fun with this release and have three cards to share with you today showcasing the soon-to-be-released Fun in the Sun Shadow DiesSun Shaker DiesSummer Bucket Additions Dies and the Sunburst Pierced Plate. So let’s get started.

Fun in the Sun! My first card features the Sun Shaker DiesFun in the Sun Shadow Dies and the Sunburst Pierced Plate with the help of the Summer Bucket Additions Dies and Summer Holder Additions Dies

I started with Sunburst Pierced Plate to create a subtle texture on my white cardstock background. I trimmed the edge off and matted the panel with a piece of teal cardstock. 

Next, I diecut with the Sun Shaker Dies for the adorable sun, the Summer Holder Additions Dies for the little sunglasses, the Summer Bucket Additions Dies for the popsicles and colored cardstock. I assembled the pieces and highlighted with a white gel pen. The sun and popsicles were adhered to the panel. Some were popped up with foam tape for a bit of interest. 

I used the Fun in the Sun Shadow Dies to diecut the sentiment out of teal and white carsdstock. I love this fun combo of the two fonts. This beautiful die can easily hold its own and be the center of attention on an A2 card. I adhered to sentiment and shadow to each other with liquid glue and then to the card front with foam tape. I finished the card with a few Sparkling Clear Confetti Mix

Hello Summer! My second card features the Summer Bucket Additions Dies and the Sunburst Pierced Plate with the help of the Summer Cocktails DiesSummer Holder Additions Dies, the Happy Summer Stamp & Dies and the previously released Candy Bucket Dies. Isn’t that flamingo just the cutest? And don’t these yummy fruit popsicles just scream summer?! 

Once again, I created a subtle background with the Sunburst Pierced Plate. I am a huge fan of clean and simple card designs and white space. I love how this plate adds just a little subtle interest while preserving that pure white space for me. This time I matted the panel with a piece of pink cardstock.

I used the Summer Bucket Additions DiesSummer Holder Additions Dies and the previously released Candy Bucket Dies to diecut the flamingo, popsicle sticks, sunglasses and bucket out of colored cardstock. The Summer Bucket Additions Dies and Summer Cocktails Dies were used to diecut the popsicles and fruits out of Neenah Solar White cardstock. I did some simple coloring of the popsicles and fruits with Copic markers and added seeds with a black Pigma Micron pen. I assembled the diecuts and highlighted with a white gel pen. The popsicles and bucket were adhered to the card front with a combination of liquid glue and foam tape,

COPIC COLORS (popsicles):
Kiwi: YG00/01, YG01/03 (fruits)
Watermelon: R22/24, YG25
Strawberry: R20, R22/24,YG25 (fruits)

For the sentiment, I stamped the “Hello” and “Summer” sentiments from the Happy Summer stamp set with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of black cardstock and white heat embossed before using the coordinating Happy Summer coordinating dies and Sentiment Strips Dies to diecut them out. I adhered the sentiment to the card front with foam tape and finished the card with some Sparkling Clear Confetti Mix.

Summer Greetings! My third card features more of the many fun elements of the Summer Bucket Additions Dies along with the Sunburst Pierced Plate, the Summer Banner Greetings and the previously released Candy Bucket Dies and Banner Greetings 2 Dies. There are so many different ways to use and decorate with the Summer Bucket Additions Dies. The possibilities are endless!

Once again, I created a subtle background with the Sunburst Pierced Plate. I trimmed down the panel and matted with a piece of teal cardstock. 

I used the Summer Bucket Additions Dies and the Candy Buckets Dies to diecut all of the elements out of colored cardstock. I assembled the elements and highlighted with a white gel pen. I adhered them to the card front with liquid glue and foam tape. 

For the sentiment, I stamped the “Summer Greetings” sentiment from the Summer Banner Greetings stamp set onto a piece of white cardstock. I used the Banner Greetings 2 Dies to diecut it out. I used the same die to diecut another banner out of teal cardstock. The banners were adhered to each other with glue and then to the card front with foam tape. I finished the card with some Sparkling Clear Confetti Mix.

June Intro: Sneak Peek Day 2

Welcome to Day 2 of sneak peeks for our June 15th release! This collection features refreshing summer cocktails, vibrant hibiscus blooms, fun shaker dies, fabulous flamingos, and much more.

Today we’ll be taking a look at three of the new standalone die sets: Hibiscus Flowers, Tropical Leaves and Large Summer Shadow.

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


Hello crafty friends! Arsenia here, and I’m bringing all the tropical summertime vibes your way today. This release is absolutely bursting with sunshine, tropical beauty, and all the summer fun! Today I’m sharing three colorful cards featuring the new Large Summer Shadow DieTropical Leaves Dies, and Hibiscus Flowers Dies.

Did you know hibiscus flowers bloom in a rainbow of gorgeous colors?  That makes them perfect for crafty playtime—simply grab your favorite cardstock colors and let your creativity bloom! 

Card One

For my first card, I combined the new Large Summer Shadow Die with the gorgeous Hibiscus Flowers Dies and Tropical Leaves Dies. I die cut all of the images from colorful cardstock and added a bit of ink blending for extra depth and dimension.

For the background, I used the Pinking Rectangles Dies and created a breezy blue panel with some fun ink smooshing. After adhering the panel to a coordinating blue card base, I arranged all of my tropical elements until I was happy with the design.

To finish things off, I added a sentiment from the new Summer Banner Greetings and die cut it using the Banner Greetings 1 dies. Voilà—card complete!  I absolutely love a good repeat sentiment design; they’re always a favorite of mine! 

Card Two

For my second card, I couldn’t resist reaching for my all-time favorite tropical leaf—the fabulous monstera from the new Tropical Leaves Dies!

I die cut the leaves from white cardstock and brought them to life with ink blending and a little splatter. For a pop of color, I added a gorgeous hibiscus flower from the Hibiscus Flowers Dies, cut from bright cardstock.

The beautiful “Summer” sentiment comes from the new Happy Summer stamp set and coordinating dies. For the sub-sentiment, I used Summer Banner Greetings and a die from Banner Greetings 3, trimming it down to perfectly fit my greeting.

For the card base, panel, and layering piece, I used the Rounded Stitched Rectangles Dies. A little ink smooshing and splattering added even more tropical texture before I adhered all the elements. The result is a bright and cheerful tropical card that feels like a mini vacation! 

Card Three

For my final card, I started with the stunning new Sunburst Pierced Plate and added a soft wash of breezy tropical blue ink blending across the background.

Next, I die cut several blooms from the Hibiscus Flowers Dies, added ink blending, and set them aside while I worked on the rest of the design.

To add a little extra detail, I created a frame using the Fancy Cake Dies—a must-have staple for any crafty stash! Once the frame was adhered, I arranged the flowers and leaves until everything felt perfectly balanced.

For the sentiment, I used the “Sending” greeting from the Potted Roses stamp set along with the coordinating dies. I paired it with another sentiment from Summer Banner Greetings, cut using the Banner Greetings 1 dies.

And voilà! Another card finished and filled with tropical charm. The bright blooms, sunny colors, and layered details make this card feel like a little splash of paradise.

This release is overflowing with tropical treasures and summertime goodness, and I can’t wait for you to see everything!  Make sure to scroll to see all the amazing makes from the design team!

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope these projects inspire you to add a little tropical sunshine to your crafty time. Have a wonderful day!

June Intro: Sneak Peek Day 1

Welcome to the sneak peeks for our June 15th release! This collection features refreshing summer cocktails, vibrant hibiscus blooms, fun shaker dies, fabulous flamingos, and much more. This release includes four stamp sets, three coordinating dies, eleven standalone dies, five stencils, and four embellishments.

Today we’ll be taking a look at four of the new standalone die sets: Flamingo Holder, Summer Holder Additions, Summer Cocktails, and Summer Drink Shaker.

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


Hi friends, it’s Christina here! Are you ready for a tropical getaway? It’s Day 1 of sneak peeks to the release on June 15th that’s full of balmy, sun-kissed stamps, dies, and stencils perfect for summertime crafting. Today we are introducing some of the new dies, including the Flamingo Holder and the Summer Holder Additions, plus the Summer Cocktails and Summer Drink Shaker. So stick around; the team has some dazzling inspiration projects to share with you!

To showcase the new dies, I created three island-inspired cards, all with a similar tropical color palette. To get the brightly colored tropical vibe, I chose seafoam, avocado, and emerald greens and complemented them with yellow, orange, and pink. I brought all these colors together in my first card and made the fabulous Flamingo Holder my focal point. Before assembling the flamingo, I added shading to the die-cut pieces with ink and a small blending brush, and then after assembling, I added an Onyx Pearl for the eye. While the Summer Holder Additions set has all the fun summery things perfect for any of the critters in the “Holder” collection, I chose to use the small flower that’s included and created a floral lei for my flamingo, accenting it with leaves from a new mix called Summer Blooms

To create an island paradise for my flamingo, I reached for the new Layered Tropical Leaves Stencil and the Tropical Leaves die set. I layered a Pinking Rectangle die-cut from acetate on top of the stenciled background panel to soften it a bit and then tucked a variety of tropical leaves behind the flamingo before attaching everything with either liquid glue or foam squares. I finished this card design with a heat-embossed sentiment created by combining two new stamp sets, Happy Summer and Happy Hibiscus, and a few more Onyx Pearls for embellishment.

My next card shares a glimpse of what you might find if you peek through those tropical leaves in my first card—Summer Cocktails sipped from coconuts! The Summer Cocktails die set gives you a variety of options for creating fun fruity drinks, but I chose to double up on the coconut drinks and nestled them in a frame of Tropical Leaves for a lush tropical feel.

I used the new Sunburst Pierced Plate die-cut from Seaside cardstock as the background and tucked a few seashells and small flowers from the Summer Holder Additions set into the leaves that frame the scene. I added straws and colorful fruit picks to the coconut cocktails before finishing things up with a sentiment that, like my first card, I created by combining two new stamp sets. I used a sentiment from the Summer Banner Greetings with a pierced banner from the Banner Greetings 3 die set and the word “Cheers” from Summer Sips, a fun summer drink stamp set.

The last card I’m sharing with you today is a shaker card featuring the new Summer Drink Shaker. I stuck with the same tropical-inspired color palette I used for my first two cards, using a yellow, orange, and pink ink blend for the summer drink shaker and a seafoam checkerboard background I created by stenciling the new Watercolor Stripes horizontally and then vertically onto a white cardstock panel. 

To create the shaker element, I used foam tape to pop up the stenciled checkerboard panel onto a seafoam cardstock base, created a well around the acetate shaker window, and filled it with 4mm Clear Droplets and 8mm Sparkling Clear Sequins. I used white cardstock to frame the drink shaker and then added some fun fruity drink accessories, including a straw, a drink umbrella, and of course, fresh fruit. I wanted my citrus slices to have a white pith, so I combined the smaller citrus slice from the Summer Cocktails set with the larger one included with the Summer Drink Shaker. I added a beautiful ink-blended Hibiscus Flower for more of a tropical island vibe along with a few clay hibiscus flower embellishments from the new Summer Blooms clay mix. I finished up this card design by combining the new Large Summer Shadow die with a sentiment strip from the Happy Summer stamp set.

Keep scrolling for more balmy, sun-kissed inspo from the team!

Thank you so much for checking out the sneak peek inspiration I created for the upcoming June 15th release. Come back tomorrow for more sneak peeks!

Easy Black & White Backgrounds for Quick Cardmaking

Hi friends, Carly here today. Pretty Pink Posh stamps are some of my absolute favorites to color but…coloring takes me a long time! And sometimes I don’t have as much time to spend cardmaking as I would like so that’s where easy black & white backgrounds come in!

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

Here’s my process…

  • choose the stamps I want to be the “main character” like the bees from the Bee Additions set and bugs from Cute Bugs.
  • stamp & die cut the “main characters”.
  • choose the “scenery” stamps.
  • use the “main character” to help place the “scenery” and a sentiment (I like to use the center of my card front or the bottom corner,) and then stamp it.
  • then color the “main character” and adhere to the card.

Bee Additions Stamps & Dies
Cute Bugs Stamps
& Dies
Hello Friend Stamps
Daisies Stamps
Patterned Apples Stamps
Party Time Stamps
Friend Greetings Stamps
Spring Chicks Stamps

This process is quick, easy and even great for “compartmentalized makes” as Tim Holtz says because you can do one step today when you have a few minutes and come back for another step on another day.

Rainbow Bug Card

Hello, friends! Justin here and today I’m excited to share a bright and colorful bug-themed card featuring several adorable Pretty Pink Posh products. I also created a full video tutorial showing exactly how this card came together from start to finish.

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

If you love rainbow ink blending, playful critters, and layered card designs, this project is a fun one to recreate.

Cute Bugs Stamp Set
Cute Bugs Coordinating Die Set
Honeycomb Stencil
Checkered Pierced Plate Die
Thinking of You Shadow Die

Additional Products Used

  • Distress Oxide Inks: Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry, Dried Marigold, Carved Pumpkin, Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed, Salvaged Patina, Mermaid Lagoon, Shaded Lilac & Wilted Violet
  • Pearl Paint & Splatter
  • Crater Lake Sequins
  • White & Dove Cardstock
  • Olo Markers

To create this colorful background, I started by using the Honeycomb Stencil along with a full rainbow blend of Distress Oxide Inks. Blending the colors from warm tones into cool tones helped create a bright gradient that really makes the card stand out.

After completing the ink blending, I layered the panel over the Checkered Pierced Plate Die cut background to add extra texture and subtle detail throughout the card front. I also added pearl paint splatter and water bleach marks across the panel for additional movement and interest.

The adorable bugs from the Cute Bugs Stamp Set were colored with Olo Markers using bright coordinating colors to match the rainbow background. Once die cut, I arranged the bugs around the large Thinking of You Shadow Die sentiment to help frame the focal point of the card.

To finish the design, I added a few Crater Lake Sequins for sparkle and dimension while keeping the overall design bright, playful, and easy to mail.

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today! Happy crafting!

How To Make Easy Shaped Cards

Hi friends, Carly here today. Do you like shaped cards? I think there is something about them that feels extra special and extra fun! And shaped cards are super easy to make with so many of the Pretty Pink Posh shaker dies!

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

To create the base of the card I die cut the shape from a folded card, making sure to place the folded edge of the card inside the cutting edge of the die. I add at least one more complete shape on top to complete the look (and for stability) and then have fun decorating! 

Snail Shaker Die Set
Beehive Shaker Die Set
Stitched Bugs

Apple Shaker Die Set

I think the shaped cards are fun with the shaker element and without it too! For these sweet & silly bug cards I even made silly eyes.

I hope you enjoyed today’s cards and video. Thanks for stopping by!

[Video Hop + Giveaways!] Happy Bee Shaker

Hello, friends! It’s Caly with you today, celebrating the release of the Pretty Pink Posh May 2026 release!  For today’s video hop, I’ve made a card featuring the Bee Shaker

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

I added the beehive to give it a full scene, but the Beehive Shaker Dies can be used as a standalone centerpiece on any card! The Everyday Branches helps create pops of color against the yellow of the beehive and bee.

To give my bee more color, I pieced it together using black, yellow, and white cardstock. I made to sure to add more color with the addition of pink on the bee’s wings and in the honeycomb background.

The bee’s shaker window is filled with Bee Happy Beads from this release for the bee’s body and Iridescent Mini Circle Confetti for the wings.

To finish my card, I added a stamped sentiment using the new Everyday Banner Greetings stamp set and die-cut a fishtail banner using the Banner Greeting 1 Die set.

I hope you enjoyed this project! Be sure to hop along and leave a comment along each video stop for your chance to win a $20 gift certificate to shop Pretty Pink Posh!

Have a great day!

May Release Now Available

The May 2026 Release is now available in the Pretty Pink Posh Shop and select retailers that carry our products. If you missed our post yesterday, we revealed all of the products in picture form, but if you would like to see them in a video, Mindy has that for you today!

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


Hello Everyone! It is Zsofi here today with a cute caterpillar card using the May release. It is absolutely unique and full of cheerful little garden critters, perfect for the season. This card was heavily inspired by the famous children’s book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Let me show you how I made it.

First I cut the Caterpillar Holder die 3 times from different shades of green cardstock. I kept the negatives to use as a template later. I also cut the head from a red scrap piece, masked off the head under the little aentenna with a piece of post-it and blended it with Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide ink. On the red it really looks purplish, just like in the book. I did the same with the little arms. Then I die cut the eyes and mouth from the darkest green cardstock and found a slightly bigger pair of circles in the Stitched Dandelions die set, which I cut from yellow cardstock to layer it under the green eyes.

I wanted the background to have some texture while still resembling the children’s book, so the new Checkered Pierced Plate was the perfect choice. I cut it from white heavy weight cardstock, and using one of the negative pieces of the caterpillar holder die cuts as a template, I assembled the little critter and adhered all the pieces directly on the background.

I wanted some leaves for this cutie to munch on, so I die cut two leaves from the Everyday Branches die set and used the edge of a dandelion die to create the “bite”. It looks so cool, having this very hungry caterpillar holding those half-eaten leaves! 

I wanted to keep the sentiment simple yet encouraging, just like the main message of the book. So I die cut the Large Hello Shadow die from gold sparkle cardstock and the shadow from vellum. 

I also die cut 2 green flags with the Banner Greetings 3 die set and white heat embossed some encouraging words from the Everyday Banner greetings stamp set to complete the message. I popped them up under the big Hello using 3D foam squares for extra dimension.

Thanks for stopping by, I hopoe you were inspired by this card!

May Intro: Sneak Peek Day 4

Welcome to Day 4 of sneak peeks for the May 14th release. Today we’ll be taking a look at the new stamps and stencils. In this release, there are five new stamp sets (four with coordinating dies) and five new stencils.

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


Hi everyone! Melissa Phillips here with you today and I am so happy to be celebrating the new May Release from Pretty Pink Posh. 

I’m sharing a couple of cards created with the new stencils and stamps you’ll find in the May Release.  You’re in for such a treat! 

My first card uses the darling, new Dandelions stamps and coordinating dies. I began with the new Checkered Pierced Plate die to create my soft, textural background.  I stenciled dandelions across my card base using the new Dandelion Background stencil. It’s so irresistible! From there I’ve used the new Rounded Stitched Rectangles die to create a scene for my dandelions. The base rectangle was cut from vellum and the top was cut from white cardstock and ink blended in coordinating colors.

Each dandelion was cut from white cardstock and then stamped in shades of yellow and pale green.  I then ink blended coordinating colors over each, stem, leaf, and dandelion.  I arranged them using dimensional adhesive to make them pop up off the card. 

My sentiment comes from the new Everyday Banner Greetings stamp set and Banner Greetings 1 dies. Accent flowers were cut and ink blended using the Stitched Spring Flowers dies. Who would’ve thought weeds could be so cute? 

My second card warms my heart!  I’ve used the new Honeycomb stencil to create my background. I stenciled bright aqua ink over an aqua cardstock background and then added a bit of splattering using coordinating Distress Spritz. 

I used the Eyelet Hexagons dies to create my focal point. These come in a variety of sizes and layer together so perfectly.  I added stamped and die cut bumblebees using the new Bee Additions stamps and coordinating dies.  They are the cutest, happiest bumblebees!

My sentiment comes from the new Large Hello Shadow die. I love this beautiful, bold sentiment, don’t you? 

The sweet tulips and tiny flowers were cut using the Stitched Spring Flowers dies. They make the sweetest accents and Iove adding them to my cards to finish things off.

Ready to see some wonderful samples from the team using these products? It’s so fun to see how we can use the same products in such a variety of ways!

It’s been so fun creating with you today. Stop by tomorrow to see the photo reveal of all the new products!
