Hey crafty friends! Arsenia here, back with a sneak peek of some egg-cellent new products that are going to make your crafty heart skip a beat! Get ready to meet the whimsical, fun, and oh-so-practical Build an Egg Dies and Fringe Egg Dies! These dies are perfect for crafting everything from cards and tags to cake toppers, cupcake toppers, party straws, and SO much more! I’ve got two cards to share today—so grab a cuppa, sit back, and let’s dive in!

For my first card, I’m playing with the Build An Egg Dies—and let me tell you, it’s a blast! I started with a clean, white card base and paired it with the dreamy new Watercolor Oval Stencil for my card panel. Then, I die-cut three of the four eggs from the Build An Egg Die set using white cardstock. Time for some ink blending fun! I blended in gorgeous shades of blue and green, giving the eggs a fresh, pastel look.

Next, I added loads of little decorative pieces from the Build An Egg die set, all in matching colors. And here’s the trick—don’t overthink it! Just have fun and go wild with your color combos! I adhered the eggs to the card panel, added a cute bows (from the new Easter Bucket Additions die set in yellow and vellum), and finished off with the sentiment from the new Easter Greetings stamp set and the coordinating dies for the perfect touch!

Of course, no card is complete without a little sparkle, so I splattered some shimmer all over the panel—voila! The card is done and it’s a pastel masterpiece.

Now onto my second card—featuring the brand new Fringe Egg Dies! I started by creating a soft background using one of my favorite stencils from the last release, the Layered Garlands stencils. For the card panel, I used the new Watercolor Oval Stencil to create a perfect base for my fringed egg.

I die-cut all four pieces from the Fringe Egg Die set in white cardstock, then blended on some more fun blue-green ink. The fringe effect is so fun and textural—love it! I assembled the egg with a little glue, and decided to give it a pop of floral goodness using the Easter Holder Additions Dies. These little flowers in white glitter paper are just the right touch of sparkle.

To finish things off, I topped the egg with a sweet paper bow, created with the Present Shaker Dies (because why not?). For the sentiment, I turned to an oldie but goodie—the Sentiment Strips: Easter stamp set. Using the Sentiment Strips die set, I cut out the sentiment, flagged the end for a fun detail, and added it all to the card panel.

Of course, no card would be complete without a little extra sparkle—so I splattered some shimmer all over, and ta-da! The card is ready to shine!

Ready to see some samples by the team? You’re in for a treat!

I hope you’re as excited as I am about these egg-citing new products! The Build an Egg, Fringe Egg and Easter Bucket Additions dies are sure to be some of your new favorites in your crafty stash. Honestly, the possibilities are endless!

Festive & Fun Fringe Present + Video

Hi Crafty Friends! Carly here and I love fringe! I think it is so festive & fun so of course I was over the moon when Pretty Pink Posh released the Fringe Present die set! Truly I’ve been smitten with all the Fringe Hearts and Fringe Trees too!

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

I love to use tissue paper with the fringe dies for lots of fluffy texture and I think it makes this mini card EXTRA in all the right ways! 

And how cute is this mini card?!! The small size of the card allows the bow to hang over the edge but still fit nicely in an envelope. Or it makes a really fun card to add to a gift bag because the reinforced bow makes it sturdy enough to hang!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Spring Raccoon Card + Video

Hi, friends! Lauren Taylor here and I’m so excited that Spring will be here soon, and what better way to celebrate the season than with an adorable handmade card featuring a sweet little raccoon? Today, I’m showing you how to transform the Fox Holder Die Set into a charming raccoon, perfect for a fun and cheerful spring-themed card. I’ll also be using the Valentine Holder Additions Dies, Flower Garden Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies, and the Layered Butterfly Floral Stencils to bring this card to life with soft florals and bright spring colors.

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

To start, I stamped and colored floral images from the Flower Garden Stamp Set using alcohol markers in shades of purple and blue-violet for the flowers and fresh greens for the leaves. To achieve a crisp and colorful outline, I stamped over the colored images again using VersaFine Clair Inks in Very Peri and Grass Green. Then, I cut all my floral elements with the Flower Garden Coordinating Dies and set them aside.

Next up, the star of the show—our adorable raccoon! I cut the Fox Holder Dies from shades of gray cardstock and customized it by trimming the face piece into a raccoon’s signature bandit mask using darker gray cardstock. I added all the details, including the ears, eyes, and a striped tail, by layering cardstock elements and using liquid adhesive to assemble this little critter. For a sweet finishing touch, I added a bow (originally meant for the basket) to the raccoon’s ear—so cute!

For the background, I ink-blended the Layered Butterfly Floral Stencils onto lilac cardstock using Distress Oxide Inks in Twisted Citron, Dusty Concord, and Milled Lavender. For an extra bit of shine, I added a final layer with Lunar Paste in Royal Flush for a pearlescent effect. Once dry, I assembled my card by attaching the raccoon and floral basket with foam adhesive for dimension. A sentiment from the Valentine Greetings Stamp Set, die-cut with the Valentine Greetings Coordinating Dies and layered for sturdiness, completed the card. For a final touch, I sprinkled a few white heart embellishments from the Valentine’s Day Clay Confetti for added charm.

I absolutely love how this springtime raccoon turned out, and I hope you do too! Happy crafting, and may your spring be filled with creativity and joy!

Hi there my crafty and creative friends! It’s Wanda here, guesting on the awesome PPP Blog today!

The project I’m sharing is a fun birthday treat box featuring the cute new Dog Holder Dies, the new Birthday Holder Add-ons, and the new Birthday Dogs and Cats stamps and dies – along with some other favorite supplies from PPP.

I started by die cutting and assembling the Birthday Treat Box and lining the back with matching gingham paper. I splattered on some white paint. I die cut a white Eyelet Circle and put that on the front of the treat box. 

I die cut out the adorable pup using shades of brown cardstock. I used a white gel pen to add small highlights to the pieces. I gave the pup a super cute party hat and a present to hold.  I added a few gems for just a little bit of sparkle.

I attached the dog to the front of the treat box using foam tape. I stamped the sentiment using the new Birthday Dogs and Cats stamp set and die cut it with the matching dies. Let’s Pawty!!

I put some candy into a cello bag and tied it with matching twine and put it into the treat box – it’s so festive and fun. Sure to make any party goer smile.

Valentine Theme Week: Day 4

**All items in the Valentine’s Day section are 15% off during theme week**

Hello friends! This is Mindy Eggen with you today to share some yummy inspiration featuring the Valentine Cake Pops!

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

Have you tried cake pops? I’ll share a secret… I have never tried a cake pop. Gasp! What?! I know! But I’ve heard they are yummy.

So since I don’t have these in my home calling my name, I’ll admire them from afar by creating them on a card.

Although I created these in a Valentine’s Day theme with the Scattered Heart Frame stencil in the background with pinks and reds, these could easily be a birthday card, anniversary card or honestly any kind of card.

Who wouldn’t smile getting a card with a cake pop on it? To add a sentiment, I used the Valentine Greetings stamp set and coordinating dies. There’s a lot of great words in this set!

Can’t forget the finishing touches by adding Valentine Mix embellishments and glossy accents.

Now in all the goodness, are you craving a cake pop right now ?

Thanks everyone for stopping by today and hope you enjoyed the inspiration.

Mindy

Valentine Theme Week: Day 1

**All items in the Valentine’s Day section are 15% off during theme week**

Hi Crafty Friends! Carly here and I must admit that I’m not really a romance & fancy dinner kind of Valentine but I do love to send cute cards to my friends to remind them how much I love them! And what better way to tell someone how loved they are than a shaker card!

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

You might know that I always love a shaker card, LOL, but it really is extra fun for Valentine’s Day! And the Pretty Pink Posh XOXO die makes the most fabulous shaker window! 

Plus after you use the XOXO to make a window, you can use the die cuts (with a few more) to make a second cute Valentine card!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Stop by tomorrow for another day of Valentine inspiration!

Mass Produced Thanks Cards + Video

Hi crafty friends! Rebecca here with a set of thank you cards today!

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

After the holidays, I always have a lot of thank you cards to create! So I love to come up with a design and mass produce it to create several cards at once. This is especially easy with a die cut only card!

A background die is a great way to start by adding texture and interest to the background without any stamping techniques! I love the Pierced Leafy Vines Plate Die and

Pierced Hearts Plate Die for subtle texture and a pretty background design.

Of course you need a great sentiment. I grabbed the thanks sentiment from the Many Thanks Shadow Dies. Cutting the word die out of specialty cardstock like glitter or foil adds a nice touch of shine.

Since I decided to keep these cards simple without any images, I wanted to make sure the sentiment stood out. So I cut out the Scallop Circles Dies and inked the center piece with colors that coordinated with my cardstock choices. You could also try different sentiment holders like the Scallop Squares Dies or the Scallop Ovals Dies.

If you don’t need to add any more thank you cards to your stash, you could always add envelopes and place them in a gift box and tie with ribbon or twine. Whether for a holiday, birthday or graduation, a box of thank you cards is a fabulous gift!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Valentine Double Heart Shaker + Video

Hi, friends, it’s Lauren! Welcome back to the Pretty Pink Posh blog. I’m so excited to share a step-by-step guide to creating a sweet Valentine’s Day shaker card.

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

For this project, I’ve combined the adorable Fresh Berries stamp set and coordinating dies with the newly released Valentine-themed products, including the Valentine Greetings stamp set, coordinating dies, Double Heart Shaker Dies, and the XOXO Pierced Plate Die. The centerpiece is a double heart shaker element, filled with the lovely Love Shaker Beads and Strawberry Valentine Mix. These vibrant accents inspired me to bring back the strawberries from the Fresh Berries Stamp Set—don’t they pair perfectly?

I began by stamping the images from the Fresh Berries stamp set in alcohol marker-friendly black ink on white cardstock. Using my OLO markers, I carefully colored the strawberries with three shades of red for dimension and shine. I added brown tones to the seeds and green tones to the leaves, finishing with subtle highlights using a white gel pen. The flowers were kept white with pale yellow centers for a delicate touch. For the berry basket, I stamped it on kraft cardstock and shaded it with Vintage Photo Distress Ink to create a textured, dimensional look. Once everything was colored, I used the Fresh Berries coordinating dies to cut out all the pieces.

Next came the heart-shaped shaker frame, created using the Double Heart Shaker Dies. For the window, I used acetate, hand-trimming it to fit the heart frame. After adhering the acetate with liquid glue, I added foam adhesive strips to the back to build the shaker compartment. Filling it with the Love Shaker Beads and Strawberry Valentine Mix was so fun! The mix of strawberries and clay hearts added just the right festive flair. After securing the shaker to my card base, I assembled the berry basket with its charming strawberries and flowers, layering them with foam adhesive for added dimension.

To finish, I added the sentiment “XOXO” from the Valentine Greetings stamp set, embossed in white for a crisp, elegant look, and cut it out with the Valentine Greetings coordinating dies. I adhered it to the heart shakers to tie everything together. This card was a labor of love, but seeing it come together made every step worthwhile.

I hope you enjoyed crafting with me and feel inspired to pair Pretty Pink Posh’s new Valentine products with older favorites for your projects. Thanks for joining me, and stay tuned for more creative inspiration. Happy crafting!
