Hello friends! It’s Leica here today with a coffee-themed Christmas card. I’ve used the Layered Coffee Cups stencils, Winter Foliage dies, and the Winter Mug dies for this square-shaped card. 

I first cut a 5” square panel and inked through the A layer of the Layered Coffee Cups in Gina K. Amalgam Ink. Next, I inked through the B layer in Spun Sugar and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Inks. For the C layer, I used Spun Sugar and the Gina K. Amalgam ink.  

Next, I cut the mug from the Winter Mug dies in pink cardstock and shaded the sides with Copic R00. I stamped the sentiment from the Holiday Sentiments on the mug. For the hot cocoa, I cut it in kraft cardstock and added Copic E70. I assembled the candy cane and decided to turn it upside down to make it  a chocolate wafer stick.

I then watercolor sheets of cardstock in shades of green and red. Once dry, I used the Winter Foliage dies to cut the flowers and greenery for my little floral arrangement. I splattered some white paint before gluing it onto the card panel. 

I glued down the elements on the card panel and layered it with a 5.25” square patterned paper. Lastly, I adhered the panel onto a 5.25” card base.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope that I’ve inspired you to make cards with these new products from PPP!

Hello, Gemma here today to share a card inspired by Christmas sweaters. This is a fun way to use the smaller images in your stamp sets.

I stamped, copic coloured, and die cut images from the following stamp sets:

• Pine Wreath
• Joy
• Christmas Friends
• Love Borders

Copic Colours Candy Canes: R22-24, N0-1 Holly & Berries: R22-24, G14-17 Baubles: R20-24, G40 G12-14 Santa Hat: R22-27, N0-1 Birds: R24-29, N3-5, E97 Presents: YG05, R85 Trees: E57 G14 G17 G28

For the sentiment, I die cut a Stitched Strip from white card. I chose a sentiment from the Holiday Sentiments stamp set, and repeat stamped it across the stitched strip.

I adhered the sentiment strip across the centre of an A2 card base, followed by a heart border above and below. I then added each layer of my Christmas sweater design, trimming away anything overhanging. Having the images go off the card will give the illusion that the pattern continues.

All the layers are adhered with liquid glue, to reduce dimension and make it easier to mail out.

I hope this card inspired you to use your smaller images in new, creative ways.

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today sharing a fun Christmas card that is easy to recreate. You can use this concept for any holiday and change out the images/ colors.

I started my card by making my card panel with the Circles stencil. I ink blended red, green and aqua ink with finger daubers to create my background. I love how this stencil can be used for a traditional card panel but also works great to create a grid for smaller images. 

Next, I used the Joy, Pine Wreath, Poinsettia Corners, and Christmas Friends sets to stamp my small images. I colored the images with Copic markers and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. Lastly, I used the Holiday Signs stamp set to stamp my sentiment onto my panel and then added my small images with foam adhesive to finish my card.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope I inspired you to use the Circles stencil to create a card of your own. There are so many possibilities and I can’t wait to recreate the same design for another occasion.

Enjoy your day, Dana

Hello everyone, Zsofia here. I am super excited to participate in Holiday Theme Week with Pretty Pink Posh! I love to make Christmas cards and mixing old with new, this is how this cute scene was born in my head. And because I love to dress up the presents, I also created a coordinating tag. 

**All items in the Christmas section are 15% off during theme week**

I started with stamping and colouring the images from Happy Santa and Reindeer Friends. I used Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers and cut everything out with their coordinating dies.

Then I did some ink blending on Bristol Smooth cardstock with Distress Oxide inks: Chipped Sapphire, Blueprint Sketch and Salty Ocean. I spritzed the panels with water and dabbed it off with a paper towel. Then I used the Snowfall stencil and white texture paste to create a night background with snow. 

While it was drying I did some die cutting: I needed a snowbank from white glitter cardstock and also a sentiment. I chose the Merry Christmas script, cut it from gold glitter cardstock and once more from black and layered them on top of each other tiny offset, so it looks like it has a shadow. It helps the sentiment stand out.

When the background was dry, I cut it down to be a bit smaller than an A2 sized card front and adhered it to a top folding card base. I assembled the scene and popped up Santa with 3D foam squares. 

As a finishing touch I used a clear shimmer pen on the furry parts of Santa’s costume, glossy accents on the ribbon and reindeer noses, and added some highlights with a white gel pen.

For the tag I used the Decorative Tag 1 die set, and did the same steps as above. I punched a hole on the top and added a thick red and white twine to it. 

I wish you enjoyed my project and you will pop in again tomorrow for more inspiration.

See you soon, Zsofi

Hello crafty friends! It’s Leica here today with a Christmas card featuring the latest dies from Pretty Pink Posh. I’ve used the Winter Foliage dies, Winter Mug dies, and Merry & Bright Script for this square-shaped card. 

**All items in the Christmas section are 15% off during theme week**

I started by ink blending through the layer A of the Layered Christmas Lights Stencil in Pigment Craft Co Lagoon ink on a 5” panel. Next, I cut 2 marshmallows, the mug, and candy cane from the Winter Mug Dies and colored them with Copic markers. 

Hot chocolate – E77/74/71
Marshmallows – W1/00
Mug – BG09/05/13/11
Candy Cane – R29/27/24

I glued the mug directly onto the card panel and added a small cluster of florals cut using the Winter Foliage. For the sentiment, I cut the “merry” from the Merry & Bright Script in pink glitter cardstock and a few times in white cardstock for dimension. I then stamped out “Christmas” on a strip of Kraft cardstock and foam mounted it onto the card panel. I glued some gold pearls on the center of the flowers and added some Ruby Red pearls on the card panel for added interest. 

Lastly, I adhered the panel onto a green card base and added a 5” square writing area in white cardstock inside the card. 

Thanks for stopping by today and happy crafting! 

Hi, everyone!It’s Marge with you today for the day 4 of Holiday Theme Week.  I’m going to share how to make a simple card with unusual colors. I used to use white bristol paper for  ink blending of backdrops or diecuts but recently I found that using light colored cardstocks make your ink colors more unique. So here’s how I did that. 

**All items in the Christmas section are 15% off during theme week**

For the background panel, I ink blended an A2 sized Cream cardstock with Distress Oxide Inks Worn Lipstic, and Tattered Rose using a blending brush.You can get more shaded & saturated colors without giving much effort to ink blending by using the colored cardstock as a backdrop. 

Next, I placed Snowfall Stencil onto the panel, then I applied white molding paste through it to make a snowy background. I set it aside and let the paste dry. 

Next, I die cut the smallest tree from Pine Trees Dies set out of Fog Gray Cardstock. I cut three pieces and added different colors to each diecut as shown in the picture below. 

I splattered with white gouach and gold metallic inks all over the tree die cuts and backdrops and let them dry. For a message on the card, I chose Merry and Bright Script Die and die cut it out of white,  white glitter, and matte gold cardstocks. I glued each layer for dimensional look 

Now it’s time for assembling. I addhered trees on the bottom using foam tapes and on the top I glued the Merry and Bright Script. For embellishment, I adhered 3mm Sparkling Clear Sequins around the diecuts and finished off my card. 

That’s it for me for today. Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you enjoyed my card. Happy crafting!

Hello crafty friends! Davina here and I’m very excited to be participating in the Holiday Week! I just love creating with Pretty Pink Posh products, I really appreciate the cute illustrations and how wonderfully the stamps sets coordinate with previously released products. The cute Christmas box card that I’m sharing today has a blend of Holiday sets from present to past. 

**All items in the Christmas section are 15% off during theme week**

I built this box card with mint colored cardstock and some patterned papers that have red, pink, green, and mint. For the background panel, I ink blended some pretty pink shades and splattered with water and white ink. Then I used the Layered Snowflakes stencils to create a pink and white blizzard which includes some raised embossed snowflakes. 

I like to focus my coloring, to match with my papers, so that it all feels themed. I stamped many images from Happy Santa and Reindeer Friends. After coloring the images and using the coordinating die cuts to perfectly cut my images, I added small white dot highlights. I adhered my images throughout the layers of my boxcard making sure that none were completely hidden. Then, I heat embossed some snowflakes on vellum and tucked them into the scen on skinny acetate strips so they look like actual snowfall. 

To finish off the boxcard, I used gold embossing powder for the scripty “Joy” sentiment from the new Pine Wreath stamp set (I love that it has a coordinating die!) and mounted it onto a white banner that reads “to the world” from an older Joy stamp set. I think the bright red cardstock really packs a punch for the front. 

Finally I stamped my sentiment onto the back and added a few little details and one more reindeer to make this beautiful from all angles. I hope that you enjoy this festive and bright card, make sure that you visit the the PPP shop to see the incredible products and take advantage of all of the holiday deals! 

Thank you for stopping by, Davina
