I began by stamping out images from the new Easter Wreath stamp setand the previously released Easter Bunnies stamp set. My niece’s favorite cuddly toy is a pink bunny so I coloured the bunnies in pink for her.
On a square card base, I added detail to the edges with the new Floral Background stencil and Salvaged Patina distress oxide ink.
I die cut the new Hoppy Easter Script die from white card (2 layers) and added a top die cut layer of yellow glitter card. I adhered the scripty sentiment to the card, then added the images around the words. I popped up some with foam tape for more dimension.
Hello crafty friends! It’s Elaine here from Pink Peppermint Cards for the start of Easter theme week here at Pretty Pink Posh. I am so excited to be kicking things off with a fun project to inspire you with Pretty Pink Posh products old and new. Here’s how I made these cute Easter cards!
I started by cutting a piece of card stock to 5”x10” then scored at 5” on the longest side. I folded the card at the score line and used a bone folder to reinforce the crease. This gave me a 5”x 5” card base. I then cut a piece of light pink card stock to 4 ¾”x 4 ¾” and adhered directly to the card base ensuring the borders were even all the way around.
Next, I cut a piece of heavyweight white card to 4 ½” x 4 ½” for the card front. To create a background for my images to sit on I used the Circles stencil. I masked off some of the circles to give me a 3×3 circle grid as this best fit the card measurements.
Using the centre circle on the stencil, I placed it in the centre of the card panel (I didn’t do any exact measuring, I just eyeballed it, but you could easily measure this out with a ruler to be exact). I used a blending brush and Distress Ink in Worn Lipstick to lightly blend on color over the stencil. I carefully removed the stencil once I was happy with the depth of color and then splattered some shimmery gold ink all over the card front to help break up some of the white.
Now for the cute images! I stamped the bunny face and the chick from the Easter Wreath stamp set and the bow from Holiday Pals stamp set multiple times on to copic friendly card stock.
COPIC MARKER COLORS
Bunny – W4, W3, W1, W0, R83, R81
Chick – Y17, Y15, Y13, R83
Bow – RV66, RV52, RV52
I cut the images out with thecoordinating dies and placed foam tape on the back of all the bunnies and chicks. I placed an image in the centre of each of the circles, alternating in each row. I used liquid adhesive to adhere a bow on some of the images.
I gold heat embossed the ‘Easter Greetings’ sentiment which is also from the Easter Wreath stamp set on to white card stock and used my guillotine trimmer to trim around the edge. This was popped up on to the card with foam tape also.
Finally, to finish the card I adhered strips of foam tape to the back of the front panel and adhered to the card base. I love the dimension the foam tape gives.
That finishes up this project, I hope you find it useful for your own Easter cards and projects! Come back tomorrow for more inspiration!
Hello crafty friends. It’s Lisa Mears here. Today I’m sharing an easy birthday card I made using the Build A Gift Die Set from Pretty Pink Posh. If you like die cutting, then this set is definitely for YOU!
This die set comes with 12 dies to make gifts with ribbon and bows.
I die cut the rectangle and square gift dies using pink, teal, and orange cardstock. I die cut the ribbon dies and the bow dies as well. After die cutting all of my pieces, I glued them together. After all of my gifts were put together, I stamped the sentiment onto the front of an A2 white card base. The sentiment is from the Birthday Scripts Stamp Set.
I used aScallop Frames Die from pink cardstock and adhered to the front of an A2 white card base. Next, I arranged my three gifts on the front of the card and added Flamingo Pearls and Sunshine Pearls to the card.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day!
Hi crafty friends! It’s Leica here today with a birthday card to share with you all. For this square-shaped card, I used the Layered Presents Stencils to make a fun background. Let’s get started!
I first cut a 4.5″ square panel in white cardstock and used the B layer to make the gift boxes by inking through it with the Gina K. Warm Glow ink. I then inked through the C layer with Distress Oxides (Mustard Seed, Peacock Feathers, Picked Raspberry, Salty Ocean, Seedless Preserves, and Spiced Marmalade). For some shine and added texture, I inked through the A layer with Iridescent Glitz Glitter Gel. To add another layer of color, I adhered the panel onto a 5″ square in orange cardstock.

Hello, crafty friends! It’s Leica here today and I am sharing a birthday card, featuring the new Flat Pinwheels Dies. These pinwheels are so cute and perfect for your Spring cards and other paper crafts.
To begin, I cut the smallest of the Flat Pinwheel Dies in patterned papers. For the wands, I used one of the strips from the Stitched Strips Dies and cut them in kraft cardstock. I also cut a .5 inch strip in patterned paper to go across the card and the eyelet border in white cardstock.
I adhered all the elements onto the panel with liquid glue. To add dimension to the flat pinwheels, I suggest adding the glue only to the center of the pinwheels and slightly lift up the pinwheels with your fingers. The sentiment is stamped onto a strip of pink cardstock and foam mounted onto the panel. I also adhered a fewLimeade Pearls for added interest. Lastly, I adhered the card panel onto a card base.
Thanks so much for stopping by the blog! I hope that I’ve inspired you to create cards using the Flat Pinwheel Dies. I think these pinwheels will make beautiful Spring and Summer cards, as well.
Hello, Gemma here today with a card featuring lots of lovely new products from the March release.
I began by creating a background, using the new Floral Background stencil with distress oxide inks. From this, I die cut the new Butterfly Shaker two times. I’m only using the inside pieces on this card but the butterfly frames can be kept for another card.
I die cut the Butterfly Shaker four times from white card as well, layering two of the die cut frames together for dimension.
On a mini slimline card base, I stamped a sentiment from the new Hugs stamp set. I then adhered the two white Butterfly Shakerdie cuts to the card.
I added the stenciled pieces inside the butterfly frames, then cut away any excess overhanging the edges. As a finishing touch, I added some pearls to the centre of the butterflies.
Hi there! Laura here and today I have a couple of projects to share featuring the fun, new 3D Pinwheel Die. There are so many fun ways to use these pinwheels from topping straws, pencils, gifts & cupcake toppers and of course to put on cards.
For this first card I die cut the pinwheel with white cardstock and added color by blending ink and using theMini Polka Dots Stencil. I adhered the pinwheel onto a rotating glider that allows the pinwheel to spin for a fun, interactive element. I used the Smile Script Die for the sentiment with silver glitter cardstock.
This next card uses both the large and the smaller 3D Pinwheel dies with double-sided pattern paper.
If you haven’t stopped by the PPP Instagram recently, we have a three day Instagram happening now. It’s packed full of more inspiration with this brand new release.
Hello, crafty friends! It’s Leica here today and I have a fun project using the new 3D Pinwheel Dies. These are so simple to make, thanks to this die cut, and I’ve made a few to include in Easter gift bags for my daughter and friends.
Supplies needed: Brad Hot Glue Patterned Paper Pencils (or Paper Straws) 3D Pinwheel Dies
I first cut the Pinwheel Dies in Spring-themed patterned papers. Next, I curved the corners towards the center and lined up the holes using a brad, which holds them together. Lastly, I adhered each pinwheel to a pencil, using hot glue.
These turned out so cute and I plan to have a crafty day with my daughter so we can make more for her friends. Thank you so much for stopping by today! Make sure to share your pinwheel projects with us – we’d love to see them!
I began with a panel of white card, cut to 6″ square. I taped the first layer of the Layered Eggs stencil set over the panel, then inked it with distress oxides. Although I didn’t use them on this card, I was inspired by the pretty pearl colours in the March release.
I kept the inking on the first layer light, so I could use the same inks to add a heavier layer of colour with the second stencil in the set. This one adds the patterns to the eggs.
I cleaned the stencil, then repositioned it over my panel so I could add a layer of Nuvo Moonstone Glimmer Paste. This is a clear glitter so will pick up the colour of the patterns underneath. Make sure to clean the stencil well after using any kind of paste. I then left the panel to dry overnight.
Next, I stamped and coloured an image from the Easter Circles stamp set. The coordinating die for this set includes a pretty layer that also cuts a stitched circle slightly larger than the die for the images. I used this to cut a circle of satin gold mirror card to layer behind the image, and mounted the image on top with foam tape.
I’m enjoying making mini slimline cards at the moment, so I cut my stenciled panel down to 3.5″ wide x 5″ tall. The slightly shorter length allows space for a sentiment to be stamped on the card base. The sentiment is selectively stamped from two older stamp sets – Easter Bunniesand Simple Sentiments.
I adhered the panel to my card base, then added aStitched Strip of the gold card along the joining edge. I then adhered the Easter Circlesimage to finish.
