Hello, Pretty Pink Posh fans! This is Yana and today I am sharing a video tutorial showing how create a dreamy watercolor scene using stamps from the new Fly A Kite set.
I started working on my card by stamping 2 clouds and a sentiment from the Fly A Kite stamp set in Versafine Onyx Black Ink onto Distress Watercolor Paper (in my video I am using Arches Hot Pressed Paper). Next, I stamped 3 kites and kite strings as well as a number of tiny florals and leaves from the Bold Blooms stamp set onto a separate panel.
Watch my video tutorial below to learn how I made this card.
I did my coloring a several layers – after I had applied the first, light, wash of color I intensified the areas I wanted to appear darker. After my coloring was done I used coordinating dies and cut these images out in my Platinum 6 die cutting machine.
I used a lot of foam adhesive and also a bit of glue to adhere my die cuts onto the card. I foam mounted the kites and flowers and used glue to adhere the leaves.
To add a bit of sparkle and shine I used sequins from the Mermaid Sequin Mix and adhered them onto my card. Lastly, I coated several flowers with Wink Of Stella glitter pen and Nuvo Crystal Glaze to make them dimensional and shiny.
Hi Pretty Pink Posh friends! Shannon here with you today!
So happy to join you and share a fun shaker card featuring the lovely new Fly a Kite stamp set and coordinating dies.
I decided some shaker clouds would be fun so I started my creating my main panel with my shaker elements.
I used a piece of Fog cardstock and used the the cloud dies to cut the clouds out of my background. I then adhered acetate onto the back and used some thin foam tape around my clouds to create the dimension for the shaker elements. If you don’t have skinnier foam tape you could always cut in half length wise, I found it much easier to manipulate around the cloud area.
I then filled my shaker clouds with the Sunny Days Sequin Mix. I kept my clouds that were cut out of my background an decided to use them for added in interest. I adhered them slightly over my shaker clouds and trimmed off any excess hanging over the sides and decided to stamp my sentient onto the middle cloud. I adhered this panel onto an A2 sized card base.
That finishes my card off! Hope you enjoyed this cloud shaker!

Suzy here with you today and we have a brand new batch of inspiration. One of the things I love the most about Pretty Pink Posh stamp sets is how they all go so well together! Today I have a card to share with you that uses three of the new sets to form a beach scene.
To make the background for this card, I started with a stitched rectangle (full card size) die-cut from watercolor paper. I then die-cut the new largest Stitched Diamond die from the center of this piece. I used a wet on wet technique to add pink watercolor just around the outside edges of the diamond. I embossed the sentiment from the Summer Friends stamp set on the top of the inside rectangle. I attached both pieces to a pink card base.
Next was the fun part – creating a little beach scene on this background. I stamped images from three stamp sets – Summer Friends, Sea Friends, and Fly A Kite – on white cardstock with a natural color ink. I colored all of the images in with Copic markers and used glitter pens to outline them and add details. I love the look of no-line coloring, but I always end up adding outlines after I’m done coloring them!
I arranged all of the images onto the card background overlapping them to fit them all on. I added some sequins from the Mermaid Sequin Mix around the images to finish the card.

Hello, Pretty Pink Posh sweet friends!
It’s time to start our two day Product Release Blog Hop for the July 2017 release. Many of you have already placed orders, but for those who were waiting for more inspiration, today and tomorrow the design team and special guests have all sorts of inspiration to share. Today we have Joni sharing a sweet card using the Fly Away Friends stamp set and Fly Away Friends Coordinating Dies.
To begin, I first distressed to white card panel with Tim Holtz Distress inks in Twisted Citron and Peacock Feathers. Then die-cut the Twisted Citron distressed panel using the scalloped die from the Stitched Borders 2 Dies. For the second panel after distressing it with Tim Holtz Peacock Feathers. I then splattered it with water for added interest and let it dry.
For more added background effect I used the Uni-Ball Signo Broad White pen to create some white background dots. This helps if you don’t have white watercolor paint in your stash to use for splattering. Next, I stamped the sentiment using the Thoughtful Greetings stamp set.
For the images, I stamped with a brown ink and colored the images with Copic Marker. Then die-cut with its coordinating die-set.
Here’s just the close-up. I adhered my image and scallop piece with foam tape for dimensions. I also added some new upcoming Mermaid Sequins Mix to finish off the card.

I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them with Copic Markers.
The hot air balloons and airplane scream for a sunny sky! I created a cardstock color block background using the straight die from the Scallop Borders 1 die set. I cut the scallop borders from ombre shades of blue card stock. Next I trimmed the strips to 5 x 1 ¾”. Then I cut the strips diagonally corner to corner. I arranged the triangles in a fan shape before trimming them to fit the front of my A2 size card.
I added some die cut clouds from the Rainy Days die set and a stitched circle sun from Stitched Essentials 1.
One of the clouds makes the perfect place to add a sentiment!
The finishing touches included some accents added with a white gel pen, and a few Clear Droplets.
These stamps are sure to make you smile! Be sure to join us tomorrow as we reveal all of the new products.
Hello Everyone, Joni here sharing another cute project with you using the new upcoming Sea Friends stamp set, Sea Friends Coordinating Dies, and Smile Shaker Die. I am sure you are going to love these adorable sea creatures.
To begin, I first stamped my images on a white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers. Then die-cut using the coordinating dies.
Next, I created my under the sea background. I used the Distress Ink in Chipped Sapphire at the very bottom of my white card base. Next I used the Peacock Feather and a little of the Cracked Pistachio on the top. Then, I splattered the card base with water using my paint brush and let it dry.
Next, I die-cut the Smile Shaker die 4 times and distressed the top portion. Then adhered with Multi Medium Matte.
Then, I adhered all the images with foam tape for dimensions. I added some Sparkling Clear sequins and the new upcoming sequins as well called Sunny Days Sequins Mix.
I hope enjoyed these cute previews of what’s coming your way! Have a wonderful week!
Good morning Pretty Pink Posh friends! Heather here this morning – to show off some of the gorgeous new product coming very soon! I used the adorable new 3 x 4 Bear Hugs set and coordinating dies, as well as a new stand alone die, and one of the fun new sequin mixes!
I wanted to create a shaker card, but decided to try to make it a little more interested. I die cut the gorgeous new Stitched Diamond Dies (without cutting them apart!) from white cardstock and out of the center of a panel of white cardstock. I decided to inlay one of the smaller diamonds inside – and to make it a little more fun, I stamped one of the tiny sentiments from Bear Hugs around the edges. As you can see, it was the perfect size!
Next I stamped and colored the bear and banner with Zig Watercolor markers and die cut with the coordinating dies. I used two layers of foam adhesive for my shaker to give it lots of room to move, then filled it with the gorgeous new Mermaid Mix (which even has 4mm Clear Droplets in it! So fun!). Finished off by adhering the bear and banner to the front!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Hope you are having a wonderful day!!!
