Hi Crafty Friends! Carly here and you might know that I love shakers! I love how a shaker can be such a focal point but I also love that they can make a really cool background too, which is exactly how I used the wreath from the Floral Wreath Builder!
By making the wreath base the shaker window and filling it with glitter, it provides a lot of sparkle & texture but it is still very flat & easy to mail! And it uses some “crafty trash” aka the plastic packaging.
Hi, friends! Lauren Taylor here and get ready to steep yourself in creativity because I’ve brewed up a delightful handmade card featuring the new and absolutely charming products from Pretty Pink Posh! If you’re anything like me, you adore adding a touch of elegance to your creations, and the latest release from Pretty Pink Posh is overflowing with just that. Today, I’m sharing a card I crafted using the Tea Time Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies, the Layered Teacups Stencils, and the versatile Notched Squares Dies. Trust me, these products are a game-changer for anyone who loves crafting heartwarming cards.
To begin this tea-riffic creation, I first stamped several images from the Tea Time stamp setusing a mix of black and fadeout ink, perfect for no-line coloring. Inspired by the beloved Mrs. Potts and Chip from Beauty and the Beast, I colored my teapot and teacup with alcohol markers, envisioning their iconic charm. To add a touch of luxury, I re-stamped their outlines with clear embossing ink and heat-embossed them with gorgeous gold powder. Once cooled, I die-cut all the images using the Tea Time coordinating dies. For the background, I took a piece of lavender cardstock and, using the first layer of the Layered Teacups Stencils, applied white pigment ink through it. To give it a subtle shimmer, I spritzed it with a glitter dust spray – the effect is simply magical!
Next came the intricate details using the second layer of the Layered Teacups Stencilsand a beautiful gold glitter paste. This adds a wonderful texture and shine without the mess of loose glitter. While that dried, I die-cut a notched square from pastel pink cardstock and created a soft ombre effect using Distress Oxide inks in Milled Lavender, Sponge Sugar, and a touch of Dust Concord. To enhance the visual interest, I splattered the inked square with water, gold mica spray, and white acrylic paint, creating lovely textures and dimension.
Finally, the assembly! I adhered the stenciled background to an A2 card base, leaving a thin white border. Then, I arranged my die-cut teapot, teacup, and floral elements onto the notched square, using liquid adhesive. I even added a sweet Large Mom Hot Foil Plate sentiment, hot-foiled in a shimmering gold and cut with the Mom/ Mother Shadow Die, and a die-cut Sentiment Strip that reads “You’re Tea-rrific.” This card is a celebration of all things lovely, perfect for Mother’s Day or just to your Mom you care. For a more in-depth look at the stenciling techniques and step-by-step directions, be sure to watch my video! You won’t want to miss all the sparkly details and helpful tips. Happy crafting!

Hi there my crafty and creative friends! It’s Wanda here, guesting on the awesome PPP Blog today! I am very happy to join you for the new release this beautiful month of May! Time for pretty flowers and lovely birds! The prelude to Summer. The warmth of the sunshine, and bright, happy colors too! It’s all good!
I started this card by making my background. I die cut the Eyelet Rectangle and then used a blending brush and Salvaged Patina Distress Ink to ink just the top part of the card. I wanted it to look like a vivid Summer sky. I splattered on more Patina Ink and Silver paint splatters.
Next I used bright cardstocks and die cut out all the pieces for the hummingbirds and the daffodils. I used Copic Markers to add shading to all the die cut pieces. I assembled the two birds and the daffodils using liquid glue. I added lots of Diamond Stickles to everything to look like shiny hummingbirds, and dewy flowers.
I stamped the sentiment using the new Friend Greetings(I LOVE these) stamp set and die cut it with the matching dies. Hello Friend! It’s the perfect all occasion sentiment! Then, I added a few gems for just a little bit more sparkle.
Thank you so much to PPP for letting me share a project with you today. Wishing you a delightful and warm day. Keep on crafting!
I began my first card using the beautiful Scallops Pierced Plate. This die is so delicate, detailed, and truly irresistible. The pierced detailing adds so much charm and sweet personality to any card.
The Floral Wreath Builder was used to create my focal point…it is a stunner! I chose to arrange my flowers across the bottom of my wreath adding a bow and more wispy leaves at the top. I die cut a few of the leaves from patterned paper and scattered them around my wreath.
My sentiment is from the new Friend Greetings stamp set anddies and is the perfect size to nestle inside the opening of my wreath. You’ll love arranging your florals in creative ways around your own wreath!
My next card uses the newStitched Hummingbird dies. These tiny birds bring in so much color and charm…I adore them! I ink blended both of my birds then added water droplets to create a soft, ethereal, watercolor look and feel.
They are layering over a Notched Squares diethat I stenciled to create a cloudy, sunshiny sky. Once again, my sentiment is from the Friend Greetings stamp and dies sets. I love this sentiment, don’t you?
Welcome to day 3 of sneak peeks for our May 7th release. This release includes five stamp sets (four with coordinating dies) that are so fun and easy to create with.
Hey there, crafty friends! It’s Arsenia here, and I am steeping with excitement to spill the tea on a sneak peek that’s as sweet as sugar cubes in your favorite cuppa!
I’ve been brewing up something special with the delightfully whimsical TeaTime Stamp Set—and yes, I absolutely brought the coordinating dies to the party. This charming set is overflowing with creative potential for all kinds of occasions, but today, I’m serving up a cheerful birthday card! Because let’s be real… can you ever have too many birthday cards on hand? (Didn’t think so.).
So grab your favorite beverage and settle in—because this crafty moment is steeped in fun (you know I had to).
First, I stamped out the sweet images from the Tea Time Stamp set and colored them in with my trusty Olo Markers, using soft blues, sunny yellows, and bright red tones. Then came the magical moment—cutting them out with the Tea Time coordinating dies. And let me tell you, these images? Absolutely adorable.
For the background, I played with the fabulous new Layered Blooming Vines Stencil—and oh my goodness, I’m obsessed! I used dye inks in shades that matched my colored images for a cohesive, whimsical look that totally ties the scene together.
To anchor the design, I reached for my new go-to: the Notched Squares Die Set. It created the perfect little frame for my tea party to unfold.
To finish it all off, I tucked in a few leafy bits from the new Floral Wreath Builder Die Set(another must-have—you’ll see why soon!), stamped and die-cut the perfect sentiment using the Tea Time setwithcoordinating dies, and sprinkled in a few hearts from the Build A Heart Die Set for that extra dash of sweetness.
And voilà—one charming, cheerful birthday card all done and dusted! I’m totally in love with how it turned out, and I can’t wait to show you even more tea-rific inspiration soon.
Stay tuned, crafty friends—there’s so much more fun on the way!
I hope you’re as excited as I am about these new stamps as we are. The possibilities are endless!
Hello everyone! This is Melissa and I’m here to share a couple of cards made with the beautiful, new Vase Shaker, Teacup Shaker, and Notched Squares dies. If you love creating with dies as much as I do, these products were made for you. Let’s get started!
My first card uses the delightful Vase Shaker…oh how I love it! I die cut it from aqua cardstock, using an aqua striped patterned paper as the base layer. I filled it full of sequins, clay confetti, and seed beads. I used a thin vellum instead of acetate to create my shaker, allowing the filler to shine through very subtly.
I filled my vase with darling blooms, cut using the new Floral Wreath Builder and Spring Floral dies. The bow from the Floral Wreath Builder was the perfect touch at the top of my vase.
The irresistible new Layered Daffodils stencilswere used to create my background, stenciling in colors to coordinate with the yellow daffodil in my floral arrangement. I then used one of the larger Notched Squares dies to layer under my vase to create a nice landing space for my focal point. My sentiment is from the new Simple Thanks stamps and dies and is the perfect size to grace the center of my shaker.
My next card uses the new and oh, so adorable Teacup Shaker. I can’t get over how cute this is and the color choices, patterns, and personality are endless! I cut my teacup from patterned paper in coordinating patterns and colors.
I chose to use flowers from the Floral Wreath Builder die collection to fill my cup, ink blending them in yellows and oranges. I added my sentiment on the die cut tea bag that comes with the set and stamped it using the new Hummingbird Floral set. The coordinating die is so graceful and sweet and looks perfect across the front of my teacup.
Once again I’ve used the Notched Squares diesto create my base layers, using a fresh gingham as the bottom layer followed by a white center layer. These dies are definitely must-haves in your crafting stash!
This sweet May release is absolutely a breath of fresh air! Creating with them is truly inspiring and full of possibilities. Thanks for visiting!
Here are some more samples from the team featuring three of the new dies sets, along with some of the other new products.
I hope you’re as excited as I am about these gorgeous new products!
Welcome to the first day of sneak peeks for our May 7th release! This release includes five stamp sets (four with coordinating dies), three stencils, eight standalone dies, and four embellishments.
Hey crafty friends! Arsenia here, and I’ve got something super exciting to share—a first look at the brand new, dimensional Shadow Box Die Set! This little gem is all about BIG impact. It’s a 3D dream come true, and the best part? It’s ridiculously easy to put together.
Whether you’re going for cute, classy, or totally out-of-the-box (pun intended), the creative possibilities are endless. Seriously, once you start playing with it, your crafty brain will be buzzing with ideas!
I had an absolute blast creating this dreamy little shadow box card, and I’m so excited to share how it came together! Let’s dive in:
First things first—I grabbed my trusty Shadow Box Die Set and cut out the base and tier pieces from white cardstock. Using the cloud die from the same set, I created a quick stencil and added some soft, whimsical clouds to the back panel of the shadow box. It instantly gave the whole scene a floaty, beautiful vibe!
Next up: the grassy hills. I used the tiers I’d already cut and transformed them with the grass die (yep, also in the Shadow Box Die Set). A little green dye ink brought those hills to life—so fresh and springy!
Time to assemble—and let me tell you, this shadow box comes together like a dream. Super easy, super satisfying.
Once it was built, I had so much fun decorating both the inside and outside of the box. I went wild with florals from the brand new Spring Floral Die Set—it’s quickly become a favorite of mine! I also added some delicate details from the Butterfly Border Die Set for an extra touch of whimsy.
Final touch? A few white paint splatters for a little sparkle! And voilà—my springtime shadow box card is complete! Best part? It fits perfectly in an A2 envelope, making it super easy to mail to someone special.
Ready to see some samples by the team? You’re in for a treat!
We hope you enjoyed the first sneak peek of the May 7th release. We’ll be back tomorrow with another look at the new collection!
Hi Crafty Friends! Carly here and my Easter cards are finished but while all the sets are on my desk I’m going to make some spring cards too! There are so many fun shapes that overlap…grass, carrots, butterflies, bows and of course flowers!
Hi crafty friends! Rebecca here with with a shaker card made with the Tulip Shaker Dies. The great thing about Pretty Pink Posh releases is that many of the sets work so well together!
So I started by cutting out the Grass Border Die. Then I cut the Tulip Shaker Dies out of a piece of A2 blue cardstock. Next, I adhered a piece of acetate to the back. I added foam tape in a rectangle around the tulip window. I poured Sugar Pop Shaker Beads into the rectangle then removed the foam tape backing pieces and placed a white A2 piece of cardstock on top to trap the shaker beads inside.
I cut the tulip out of pink and green cardstock and created frames to adhere on top of the window. I popped up the grass on top of the bottom of the tulip stem.
