Hi friends! It’s Dana here today and I am so excited to be showing you a sneak peek of the new stencils coming to Pretty Pink Posh on August 10th. 

The new release is packed full of so many fun new products for Halloween. There are four new stencil sets: Layered Pumpkins, Layered Candy Corn, Layered Ghosts and a Starry Background perfect for so many occasions. 

My first card uses the Layered Candy Corn stencil. This is a three pack of stencils that are so fun and easy to use. Each layer allows you to add another color and build your candy corn. I used Distress Oxide ink in Mustard Seed for the first layer. The second layer uses Distress Oxide ink in Carved Pumpkin. For the third and final layer I used Glitz Glitter Gel in white. I love the added detail the glitter gel adds to the panel!

Next, I added a few black splatters to my panel and set it aside to dry. To finish my card, I used the adorable new Halloween Critters set to stamp my Halloween rabbit and sentiment. 

My next cards use the new Layered Ghosts stencil set. 

This is also a three pack of stencils. For my first layer (the ghosts) I used white pigment ink. I then used Distress Oxide ink in Black Soot for the stars and ghost faces (layers two and three). 

To finish my card, I used a sentiment from the new Ghost Friends stamp set. Using white pigment ink is such a fun and easy way to create your ghost, but I thought it would also be so cute to use White Flock from Therm O Web. 

I started my card by applying Transfer Gel to the first stencil. Once the Transfer Gel was dry I ran it through my laminator with a White Flock Transfer Sheet. I love the fuzzy texture. Next, I used Black Soot ink to add the stars around the ghost. For the third layer I used the Glitz Glitter Gel in Black to add faces to the ghost. Lastly, I once again used the Ghost Friends set for my sentiment. 

Thanks for joining me today. I hope you enjoyed my cards and I can’t wait to see what you create with these fun new products. 

Enjoy your day, Dana

Hi folks, Kavya here with a sneak peek of the August 10th release!

Halloween is usually a creepy holiday and is mostly associated with darker colors, but PPP’s Halloween release is just so adorable! I can’t get enough of all the cute critters and how perfectly well they all pair together. Today, I will be showcasing two new dies- Cauldron Shaker and Candy Treats die sets. My first card uses both of them in a Halloween themed card but my second card is a birthday themed card using the candy treats! They are truly versatile. :)

I first started off by creating my background by ink blending Black Soot and Faded Jeans distress oxide inks on a pale blue cardstock. I also ink blended the stars using the Starry Background stencil. I added a strip of brown patterned paper at the bottom for the land. You can also use a striped stencil to achieve the same effect. 

Then, I diecut a bunch of candies from Candy Treats using different colored cardstock. I also die cut a Cauldron Shaker using gray and black cardstock. As always, ink blended the edges and added white gel pen details to make them more realistic. Then, I stamped and colored critters from Ghost Friends and Halloween Critters. I heat embossed a sentiment in the middle of the cauldron and I was done with my card! The cauldron can also be used to create a shaker card. :) 

My next card is a birthday card using the Candy Treats die. This die set can be used all year long and can the different bits and pieces can be mixed and matched to create unique pieces of candies and chocolates all year long! 

I simply used pieces of brown and pink cardstock for all the chocolates. I tried to make them more realistic by ink blending the edges using matching dye ink and by adding details using a white gel pen and clay confetti embellishments like Clay Confetti Wheel #3 (fruits) and White Clay Hearts confetti. I also chopped up the clay sprinkles into tiny pieces, added dimes ion using glossy accents and added some transparent glitter on the edges of some chocolates. 

Later, I created my background by ink blending seedless preserves, picked raspberry and saltwater taffy distress oxide inks on pale pink cardstock. I added the chocolates and finished it off by adding a sentiment from Birthday Scripts and Celebration Scripts stamp sets.

That’s it! I hope you liked all the projects that I made today. Stop by tomorrow for a look at the new stencils coming!

Happy crafting, Kavya

Hello friends, Tammy here! The upcoming Halloween release (releasing on August 10th) from Pretty Pink Posh is absolutely SPOOKTAKULAR! I had so much fun creating this slimline card and coordinating tags using the new Halloween Critters and Halloween Borders stamp sets! 

To begin, I stamped the images from Halloween Critters, colored with Copic markers, and die cut with the Halloween Critters coordinating dies. Next, I cut a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock using the largest die from the Slimline: Peekaboo Windows Dies. I cut a circle from masking paper and placed it in the middle of the panel and ink blended the background using Milled Lavender, Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, and Black Soot Distress Oxide inks. I removed the masking paper and lightly inked the moon with gray ink to give the moon some dimension.

Next, I die cut 2 grassy borders from green cardstock and birch trees from black cardstock using the Nature Essentials Dies. I then stamped the spooky fence 2 times in black ink from the Halloween Borders stamp set and die cut the borders using the Halloween Borders coordinating dies. I attached the grassy borders to the bottom of the inked panel, then tucked the fence borders under the grass, overlapping them to fit the length of the card. I then adhered the black birch trees to my card before attaching the critters with foam tape for dimension. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment in black ink across the moon and attached the completed card to a black 3 1/2 x 8 1/2″ card base to finish.

Next, I created a fun set of tags to coordinate with the slimline card. 

I stamped the images from Halloween Critters, colored with Copic markers, and die cut with the Halloween Critters coordinating dies.  Next, I cut 2 black scalloped tags using the Scallop Square Tags. I then cut Bristol smooth cardstock to fit inside the scallop tags and ink blended then as I did the slimline card. I then stamped the spooky fence 2 times in black ink from the Halloween Borders stamp set and die cut the borders using the Halloween Borders coordinating dies. I attached the grassy borders to the bottom of the inked panel, then tucked the fence borders under the grass, cutting off the edges to fit the width of the tag. The birch trees were tucked behind the fence borders before attaching the critters with foam tape. I stamped the sentiments from the Halloween Envelopes stamp set in black ink along the grassy borders, then finished off the tags by adding a couple of stamped bats, also from  Halloween Envelopes.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you are inspired to create some Halloween projects with the fa-BOO-lous new Halloween release!

Hugs, Tammy

Hello, Gemma here and I’m excited to share a sneak peek of the new Ghost Friends stamp set releasing on August 10th. I love Halloween crafting and this set is great fun!

To begin, I stamped out images from the Ghost Friends stamp set, coloured them with copic markers, then die cut them with the coordinating dies.

Copic Colours

Ghosts: BV00 B60; BG000 BG11; B000 B00; G000 G00 Cheeks: R00 R01Pumpkins: YR14-18, YG63 Broomstick: E43-44, Y11, YR23 Stars: Y11-13 Hair bow: RV04Hat: BV04-08, RV52 RV55 RV66

For my background, I cut a piece of patterned paper to 5.25” square. In the centre, I embossed a sentiment from the Ghost Friends stamp set, using a black pigment ink and a clear embossing glitter. I then adhered the panel to a card base.

I arranged the images in a circle around the sentiment, adhering the stars with liquid glue and using foam tape to add dimension to the ghosts. I love the accessories in the set that can be added to the ghosts.

I finished by adding white gel pen details to the images.

Stay tuned for more sneak peeks of the upcoming Halloween release releasing on August 10th. Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Friends! It’s Raquel here today. I’m so happy to be sharing some fun sneak peeks of the upcoming Pretty Pink Posh August 10th release!

This release is all about Halloween and believe me, you are going to love it. Among the cutest stamp sets of this release, there is this super adorable set called Halloween Envelopes. The envelopes are so unique and gorgeous!

Let’s dive right in and let me show you my first project. To create this fun scene, I started by using the Layered Ghost stencils set.

I wanted to achieve a purple and yellow look to my entire design so I thought Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink would do the trick for these little ghosts.

I decided to apply ink more heavily on one side and blend it softly to the other side to get this ghostly look.

These stencils are so super easy to use! With the second layer I applied Black Soot Ink for the eyes and for the third and final layer, I used Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink for the stars. I trimmed it to a 4 ¼ and 5 ½ size panel since I knew I wanted a black border to show.

Next up I stamped my Halloween Envelope in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the images with Copic markers.

I used:

Boooo and  Booo for the Ghost, Y

G00 and YG01 for the little Frankestein, 

YR14 and YR16 for the Spider

W0 and W1 for the Spider Web

V6, V5, V12, V1 and V000 for the envelope.

Once I die cut this image with the Halloween Envelopes coordinating dies I foam mounted it onto the Layered Ghost Stenciled panel.

I wanted to dress up the scene a bit so I decided to add some little bats and ghosts from the same set. I colored them in the same colors of the envelope.

To complete the scene, I used some more ghost from the Ghost Friends stamp set. I also used the same markers (B0000 and B000) to color these bigger ghosts. I made them wear these super fun hats and bows which I believe are just perfect and make them even more adorable!

Finally, I just had to add my sentiment, so I thought the Boo Script Die in yellow was the perfect fit.

I started out by ink blending an A2 panel of white cardstock with Span Sugar and Seedless Preserves Oxide Distress Inks.

Next I colored another envelope from the same set: Halloween Envelopes, along with some of the smaller images that come in this set. This is what I love most about this set, it has these super cute envelopes, but it also has the cutest small images that are perfect to dress up your design.

I also used Copic Markers to color my images:

V0000, V000, V12, V05, V06 for purples,

BG15 and BG000 for blues,

Y11 and Y13 for yellows,

YR16 and YR14 for oranges,

RV13 and RV00 for pinks.

BV0000 and BV000 for the envelope.

Next up I trimmed my panel to 4 by 5 ¼ inches and adhered a plastic from some packaging I had all around the back of the panel except to the top.

I hand picked some clay confetti from several sets: Spooky Fun Mix, Monster Mash Mix, Spooky Night Mix and Halloween Party Mix and put it my shaker along with some crystal glitter.

Once I closed the flap of my shaker, I adhered the envelope and small images onto the Infinity Shaker card.

Lastly, I white heat embossed the sentiment You are Spooktacular from the Halloween Critters Stamp set and placed it onto the envelope.

I hope these projects inspire you to create. Stop by tomorrow for another sneak peek of the Halloween release!

Happy crafting, Raquel
