Hello crafty friends. It’s Lisa Mears here. Today I’m going to make a card using some fun new products from Pretty Pink Posh.

For my card, I used the following stamp sets: Valentine Wreath, Love Borders, and Sending Love. I started off by coloring the stamps using Copic markers.

Below is a list of Copic markers that I used.

Wreath
Red – R21, R22, R24
Gray – CO, C4, Blender
Purple – BV000, BV01
Green – G00, G02
Pink – RV00, RV52, RV55
Yellow – Y11, Y13, Y15

Dog
Ears (Dark Gray) – C4, C5, C7
Body (Light Gray) – C0, C1, C3
Paws – C5, C7
Nose – C7
Tongue – R20
Collar – R22, R24

Box
Pink – RV00, RV52, RV55
Gray – C0, C4, Blender
Red – R24

After I finished coloring the stamps, I die cut them with the coordinating dies.

Next, I die cut a Scallop Circle Die two times – once with red cardstock and once with white cardstock. I used the red piece for the outside of the frame and the white piece for the inside of the frame. I added Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide ink to the center of the white piece.

The trick to make the wreath look larger is to cut the wreath in half. Make sure you cut the wreath down the horizontal center at 1.75 inches so that you end up with a top half and bottom half.

Next, I cut a piece of green cardstock that measures 4 1/8” x 1” and adhered it to the center of a piece of white cardstock that measures 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”. Next, I added each piece of the wreath so that the flat edge of the wreath is touching the green strip of cardstock. Then I added two heart borders – one at the top of the green strip and the other one at bottom of the green strip.

To finish my card, I added the scallop circle die cut frame to the center and added the dog stamp on top of the scallop circle. Finally, I added the card layer to an A2 size red card base.

Hello friends! It’s Mindy Eggen here with you today to share inspiration using the Scattered Hearts Stencil and Valentine Wreath stamp set. We are going full-on Valentine’s day for this one! 

I have a video tutorial on the Pretty Pink Posh Youtube channel that you can check out down below or HERE on the channel.

I started by ink blending my background using Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink on 80 lb white cardstock. I always go back over my colors numerous times to help smooth out the transition.

Then I added the Scattered Hearts stencil and ink blended on Wilted Violet towards the top and Picked Raspberry towards the bottom. This creates a nice contrast from the background.

Since the distress oxide inks are water reactive, I flicked water onto the background using a paint brush. This adds some subtle interest to the background. I also wanted to add some gold to my card so I added a couple drops of water to my starry watercolors and flicked that onto my background as well.

I stamped the wreath from Valentine Wreath stamp in copic friendly ink and colored with copic markers. Since the images are pretty small, I didn’t do any shading to my images. Then used the coordinating die to cut out the wreath.

One of my favorite tricks to white embossing on black cardstock is by using white pigment ink. I feel like I get better results. The sentiment I used today also comes from the Valentine Wreath stamp set.

I finished off my Valentine card by popping up both the wreath and sentiment using foam squares.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Hope you enjoyed today’s card.

For my background I have used the Hibiscus Flowers stencil set to achieve this beautiful look with various Distress Oxide colors. I have used: Salvaged Patina, Peacock Feathers, Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire and Wilted Violet colors. For the full process visit the video tutorial.

I stamped cute tiger from my favorite summer set, the Summer Fun stamp set, and now I will show you how I colored it as a bleached tiger with my coloring guide below. Before the coloring I gave a quick heat set to the image, this will prevent the ink smearing. And I started with a grayish green color, because it makes the fur warmer and more natural, then I followed the coloring like on the guide.

Instead of coloring, I made an ink blending through the Hibiscus Stencil with yellow, turquoise and pink inkpads and blended them together. The result was this pretty rainbow look.

Next, I continued with the sentiment. I stamped the summer text from the Summer Drinks with a watermark ink to a piece of violet cardstock. Then I sprinkled on it white embossing powder and heat embossed it to get a nice and crisp white sentiment, then I die-cut it. I repeated the same thing but with the Thanks a bunch sentiment from the Simple Sentiments set, this time on an orange cardstock.

Next, I cut the sentiment, as well as the created background for a 5.25” by 4”. I wanted to add to the card something colorful, so I stamped and colored some surfboards too with my alcohol markers.

In the end I styled my card and added some squeezy lemons to my card as a decoration. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.

Hugs, Mona

Hi, it’s Mona here, with a new video tutorial where I will show you how to create fun little summer scenes with cute images.

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

In the main focus will be this adorable Summer Fun stamp set, which has so many cute images, and I will show you how easy is to mix it with Jungle Friends, Summer Drinks, Tropical Birds or Hibiscus Flowers stamp sets.

I stamped the picked images with alcohol marker friendly black ink to Neenah solar white cardstock with the help of my MISTI. For the coloring I have used alcohol-based Spectrum Noir Illustrators, in the following shades: AG3, AG2, CG1, GY3, CT4, CT3, CT1, TN8, TN7, TN6, BO2, OR1, GB11, GB9, GB5, GB4, GB3, GB2, GB1, GB05, TN3, TN1, FS9, RB1, RB2, EB1, EB5, EB6, EB8, MG1, PP5, PPP3, PPP1, PV3, PV1, BP2, BP1, LV2, LV1, LV05, BG6, BG3, BG1, BT5, True Black, Blender. For the coloring process please visit the video tutorial.

When the coloring was done, I run the images through my die-cut machine with their coordinating dies, and followed the die-cutting process first with scalloped frames. Because these cards will be mini cards, I have used the smaller die.

I also made some waves from light teal cardstock with the new stitched Waves die-set, and I have also made a stitched border for the sand from Neenah Solar White cardstock, and made a quick ink blending on the sea with Broken China and with Antique Linen and Vintage Photo on the sand.

I stamped and heat embossed the sentiments from Summer Drinks and Nautical stamp set, and run them through my die-cut machine with its coordinating dies.

In the end I styled my card and put them together with 3D adhesives. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.

Hugs, Mona

For these slimline cards I have used the Hibiscus Stencil with the Hibiscus Flowers stamps and coordinating dies and I can tell you that it was so much fun to play with these products together.

I stamped the images with watermark ink and heat embossed them with white and gold embossing powders. For the useful tips how I did it in bulk and how I saved lots of time, check the video out.

Instead of coloring, I made an ink blending through the Hibiscus Stencil with yellow, turquoise and pink inkpads and blended them together. The result was this pretty rainbow look.

Next, I created the card fronts. I made soft pink and teal die-cuts with the Slimline: Peekaboo Windows die set, then I splattered on them with white, teal and pink watercolors.

I also die-cut the sentiments with the Miss You Script and the You Are Special Script dies.

In the end I styled my card and put some heat embossed gold hummingbirds to the cards.

Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.

Hi there! Laura Bassen here and today I have a colorful, floral project to share with you.

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

I used the gorgeous Geraniums Stencil Set with distress inks to create these vibrant, two-tones blooms. Then I used the Geraniums coordinating dies to cut the blooms out.

I created an oval window to frame the gold foil sentiment that was die cut using the Miss You Script die.

I popped up the die cut geraniums around the sentiment window and embellished with some Sparkling Clear Sequins.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
