Hello Everyone! It is Zsofi here today showcasing the super versatile Fall Icons stamp and coordinating die set. I love sets with small images, but sometimes it can be challenging to build a card front design with many different ones. Here is an easy example which is easy to adapt to any other stamp set with small images. Let me show you how I made this card.

First I stamped all the images on alcohol marker friendly cardstock and coloured them all with Copic markers. The good thing about small images is that you can colour a bunch in no time. Then I die cut them all with their coordinating dies.

While I was die cutting, I also cut a few grids with the Tic Tac Toe die from cream and brown cardstock. I adhered them on top of each other for instant dimension, letting the brown one be the top layer. 

I also cut a piece of kraft cardstock with the Wonky Stitched Rectangle die and used the Fall Word stencil with Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide ink to have a bit of pattern in the background. It is very subtle as I used a very light hand. I also added a bit of shading to the edges of the die cut panel with a blending brush.

Then I adhered the grid to the background, popped up the images with 3D foam squares and stamped 2 sentiments from the Fall Harvest stamp set in the middle of the grid. As a finishing touch I used a candy corn twine on the top of the card and glossy accents to emphasize some details.

I wish you liked this card idea and got inspired. Don’t forget to share your lovely creations in our FB Group: Pretty Pink Posh Friends.

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you soon, Zsofi

Hi friends, Debbie here! Today, I am featuring the Stitched Turkey dies! How cute is this guy? I can totally see him used as Thanksgiving Dinner placement cards!

I started off with a panel on a grip map in horizontal position. Place the Fall Words Stencil over the top, ink blended on SSS Clay ink. Then with the largest Stitched Torn Rectangle Die I cut it out and attached to a panel of C9 Spiced Cider cardstock.

With the Stitched Turkey Dies, the back feathers were from two shades of Concord & 9th Spiced Cider and Cayenne. Then the front was with Gina K Honey Mustard and C9 Sunflower. Once I glued the back panel of feather together I had to add 3D foam around the center, so once I adhere the top feathers on it would be level with  all the cardstock. The body was just Desert Storm, for the eyes I used Espresso Pearls.

Afterwards I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from Fall Harvest stamp set with white embossing powder. Then with the Coordinating Dies I cut it out, and using the die cut two mores times to stack up and off set with one being one of the darker colors for dimension.

Thanks for stopping by and stay crafty my friends!

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today with a holiday card that uses the Layered Snowmen Stencil Set. 

I started my card by using the Layered Snowmen Stencil Set to create my card panel. This is a set of three stencils that layer together to create a fun holiday card panel. I love that these stencils can also be used throughout the winter! I used dye ink and finger daubers for my blending. Once my panel was finished I used light aqua ink to add a few splatters to my panel.

Next, I used the Large Joy Shadow die set for my sentiment. I love the size and font of this sentiment! I ink blended the script Joy die with purple ink and attached it to a white backer (shadow) die cut before attaching it to my card panel. Such a fun and easy card to create and perfect for mailing too!

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my card. I hope to be back soon to share another project with you all.

Enjoy your day, Dana

Hi friends! Christina here to share a fun Merry and Bright shaker card showcasing some of my favorite things from the October 2024 Holiday Release. I used the Build an Ornament Dies to create shaker ornaments for my card design and added lots of festive greenery and embellishments. Follow along as I walk you through the steps to creating this easy shaker card.

I started by arranging three of the base ornaments on a heavy-weight white cardstock panel trimmed to 4 ¼ x 5 ¼  and die cut them to be the shaker windows. I used the heavy-weight cardstock for extra stability and then die cut the same arrangement again from patterned paper before attaching it to the heavy-weight cardstock.

Next, I die cut the same ornaments from white, pink, and salmon cardstock and attached them to a 4 ¼ x 5 ¼ cardstock panel for the shaker base, using the shaker window panel as a template for their placement. Then I attached foam strips around each ornament, creating wells for the Berry Bright Shaker Beads before adding foam tape to the rest of the base panel. To finish the shaker assembly, I attached acetate to the reverse side of the shaker window panel before placing it on the base panel. 

To the front of the shaker panel, I added ornament toppers die cut from matte silver cardstock and pieces of twine tied in little bows. I framed up my ornaments with the largest Scallop Frame Die that I die cut from salmon cardstock before adding the remaining embellishments, including greenery from the Holiday Wreath Builder and the Holiday Mug Additions sets. I added a sweet bow from the Beautiful Bows Dies to one of the ornaments and Cherry Red Pearls to the other two. Finally, I added a sentiment from the Winter Greetings Stamp Set heat embossed with glittery red embossing powder and die cut with the coordinating dies, and for the final detail, a few Metallic Silver Pearls.

That’s it for this Merry and Bright shaker card featuring just some of the beautiful Christmas and winter-themed products in the Holiday Release. Thanks for following along, and I’ll see you again soon!

Good morning! It’s Lindsey here, and I’m delighted to be guest designing for Pretty Pink Posh this month. Isn’t this holiday release amazing?!  I combined lots of new goodies (and a few old) on my card today, and I have to admit that it is one of my most favorite cards I’ve ever made. These sweet, sugary colors just make me happy. 

First off, I absolutely adore the new Fringe Tree Die! You can fluff it up to add a little or a lot of dimension on your card.  It looks fabulous on its own, but I decided to deck it out with trim and sparkly ornaments from the Big Christmas Cupcake Dies. I also embossed some ornaments using the Holiday Icons Stamp Set and coordinating dies. 

I framed my tree using the Wonky Stitched Rectangle Dies. On the center panel I added some pierced snowflakes by using the Pierced Snowflakes Plate as well as some colorful floating snowflakes using the Big Christmas Cupcake Dies. 

The only thing missing were the presents under the tree, so I made a whole bunch of gifts using the Big Christmas Cupcake Dies. I finished my card with a quick sentiment from the Winter Greetings Stamp Set (love this set!). 

I hope that this card makes you smile and gets you excited for holiday crafting!  There are so many fabulous projects to inspire you today, so make sure you keep hopping along. :) 

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I’m thrilled to be back on the blog with this super duper extra colorful and bright card showcasing the Christmas Light Garland die. When I first saw this die, I immediately visualized rainbow garlands, just like the ones my grandfather had on his Christmas tree. It was nice to have those sweet memories while working on this card.

I started with the background and cut a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel that I colored with oxide inks. First, I created a base using, clockwise, kitsch flamingo, dried marigold, squeezed lemonade, twisted citron, salvaged patina and shaded lilac. Next I placed the Cascading Snowflakes stencil on top of my panel, and applied picked raspberry, carved pumpkin, fossilized amber, mowed lawn, peacock feathers and wilted violet for a tone on tone look. I splattered water all over my panel and dried it using a paper towel. I mixed some copic opaque white ink with water and used a slim brush to add splatters on my panel, and I did the same with fossilized amber distress spritz to add gold splatters on my piece of paper.

I set the panel aside to dry, and cut all my Christmas Light Garland pieces: four strings out of white cardstock and multiple light bulbs out of colored cardstock. And for the light caps, I found the perfect die from Big Dump Truck, I cut some of them out of gold glitter cardstock and some out of dark yellow cardstock. Next I assembled everything: I attached the light bulbs on the white garlands in a rainbow order using liquid glue, I added a cap on each bulb, and stuck each garland to my panel using 1mm foam squares.

I added liquid glue on each bulb and sprinkled fine glitter to make them all sparkle, and while the glue was drying, I worked on my greeting. I foiled my Hot Foil Happy Holidays sentiment in gold on white cardstock, and cut each word using Happy Holidays Shadow dies. And I wanted to add a subtle border to my words, so I cut two Happy Holidays Shadows out of vellum, glued those vellum pieces behind my gold foiled words, and finally attached my greeting in the middle of my panel using 2mm foam squares. I stuck my panel to a white card base, added highlights to the light bulbs and caps using a white gel pen, and finished my card with a scattering of Iridescent Mini Star Confetti all over my panel.

And that’s it! I hope that my card has inspired you to use non traditional and bold colors on your holiday cards. Thanks so much for stopping by, see you next time!

Hello friends! Leanne here and I’m thrilled to be a guest this month for the holiday release. I have always loved to create little paper wreaths to add to cards so I was excited to see the Holiday Wreath Builder die set. This set has all the basic components to make a wreath. The possibilities are endless! For the card I’m sharing today, I made a very full pine wreath. 

I kept this card design on the simple side because the wreath really is the star here. I started with a white A6 card base. I created the background panel with the Cascading Snowflakes Stencil. I used a white opaque paste with the stencil. I moved the stencil around applying the paste only in select areas to get the random snowflake pattern. I then splattered the panel with thinned white paint. 

To create the wreath, I used all three sizes of pine sprigs included in the Holiday Wreath Builder set. I adhered them onto the large wreath base. I added in the little red berries and a double layer bow. I then gave the wreath a good splattering of white paint to give it the snowy look. 

To complete the wreath, I added sentiment strip ribbons coming down from the bow. I used the Upright Greetings Christmas set to stamp the Joyful Wishes. I then adhered the wreath to the background with thin foam tape. To finish off the design, I added several Sparkling Clear Sequins scattered all around the background. 

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

Hello, Gemma here today to share a card with the new Ornament Cover Plate and Winter Greetings stamp set.

The Ornament Cover Plate cuts a stitched A2 panel, along with a selection of patterned ornaments. There is also a die in the set that cuts out the ornament toppers and other decorations.

I began by die-cutting the Ornament Cover Plate from four bright colours of card stock. As I decided to create a square card this time, I will keep the A2 backgrounds for other cards.

I added gold glitter toppers to my six ornaments, and adhered a couple of layers behind each ornament for dimension.

On an A2 card base, I adhered a piece of patterned paper. In the centre, I stamped a ‘merry & bright’ sentiment from the Winter Greetings stamp set. I then adhered the bright ornaments to the card to finish.

I hope you enjoyed this holiday card. Thanks for stopping by!
