Next, I stamped the images from the new Summer Fun and Summer Wreath sets using versafine black ink and colored them using zig clean color brush pens. White gel pen used for accents on the images. The images were then cut using the coordinating die sets and adhered to the card front using foam tape.
The sentiment from the Summer Wreath stamp set was white heat embossed on black cardstock and cut using a paper trimmer. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using liquid glue.
Next, I trimmed down the card front using a paper trimmer and mounted it to an A2 white card base and that completes the card!

Hey crafty friends! Elaine here to share a super fun summer card using fabulous new products from the Pretty Pink Posh June release!
To start this card, I cut a piece of copic friendly cardstock to 4.25” x 5.5”, this will be trimmed down later. Using the new Summer Wreath stamp set, I used a black copic friendly ink to stamp the palm tree, water melon, umbrella, ice lolly and ice cream multiple times all over the card panel. I like to start with the biggest stamps first, in this case the palm tree and then worked down to the smallest stamps to fill in any gaps. My preferred method for creating my own background using little stamps is to mount the stamps on to an acrylic block and stamp direct to the card. I have used a stamp positioner in the past, but it takes a lot longer….and I am impatient 😉. I then colored all the images. I used quite a lot of different marker combinations for this project, and I have listed them all below. I love the fun and vibrant colors and think they all work lovely together:
Once I colored all the images I trimmed the panel to 5 1/8” x 3 7/8” and secured it to a piece of hot pink cardstock measuring 5 3/8” x 4 1/8” to leave a nice border. After applying some liquid adhesive to the back of the hot pick card panel I secured to a white A2 size base.
For the sentiment I went small and simple to ensure my background was the star of the show. I used the sentiment ‘Summer Greetings’ from the same Summer Wreath stamp set and stamped it with a black pigment ink on to some white heavy weight cardstock. I carefully trimmed this with a guillotine trimmer and layered it on to a piece of black cardstock with a small border to help the sentiment stand out on the colorful background. I adhered the sentiment with a piece of foam tape to the centre of the card front.
For some final embellishment I added small jewels in the shades Watermelon, Caribbean Blue and Lemon Drop in gaps around the images. I also added some highlights with a white gel pen to the images to help them pop.
I hope you enjoyed this project, and it brings you some inspiration for your own summer themed cards. I cannot wait to see what everyone else creates with the products in the June release!
Over the top of the print, I blended salvaged patina distress oxide ink through the new Squiggles stencil. The texture of the background shows through the ink on top and it’s a nice contrast in the swirl areas of the stencil.
I layered this background print over a large square card base. My card base is 148mm square, as this fits my U.K. cardstock, but a slightly smaller 5.5 inch square card base would work well too.
Next, I die cut four of the previously released Stitched Photo Frames from white card. I layered two frames together for dimension, and stamped a sentiment on each from the new Summer Fun stamp set.
On two of the insert pieces, I created day and night beach scenes with masking and distress oxides. Here are the colours I used:
I added some copic markers and white gel pen dot details on the sand, to give the beach some texture.
Next, I stamped images from Summer Fun and Summer Wreath stamp sets and coloured them with copic markers. The smaller images from the Summer Wreath stamp set are perfect for adding to my beach scenes. I die cut the images with the coordinating dies and arranged on the card, using foam tape for dimension. Finally, I added white gel pen highlight details to the images.

Hello friends! Ready or not, Summertime is upon us! It’s Leica here today with an A2 sized card, featuring the new Vacation Scene Die. This is a fun new addition to the previously released scene Dies – Spring, Winter, and Beach.
Let’s begin! I first die cut the Vacation Scene Die in white cardstock and colored it with Copic Sketch Markers. I used BG15/11/000, E47/44/43/33/31/30, N3/1, Y15/13/11, RV11/10/00, V17/15/12. I then adhere the pieces back together by gluing them onto a circle panel.
I added stitching details around the panel by running it through my die cut machine using theStitched Notes Die. I then glued the outer area of the panel onto an A2 card base, and for dimension, I foam taped the center part. I also foam taped the scene die for even more dimension. Lastly, I white heat embossed the Happy Summer sentiment from Summer Fun stamp set onto a strip of black cardstock.

The June 2021 Release is now available in the Pretty Pink Posh Shop and select retailers that carry our products. If you missed our post yesterday, we revealed all of the products in picture form, but if you would like to see them in a video, Heather has that for you today!
I started by stamping the wreath in black ink and coloring the images with Copic Markers. I die cut the wreath with the Summer Wreath coordinating die.
The stamp set includes additional images besides the wreath. I chose some of the images to stamp, color, and die cut to add to my card. I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set in the middle of the wreath and added the sunglasses below the sentiment. In the left corner I added the sun.
I added additional images at the bottom of the card, attaching some of the images with foam tape to add dimension.
To create the card front I cut a piece of white cardstock and blended Speckled Egg Distress Ink on the white background. Next I cut the wave with the new Stitched Waves die set. I cut the wave from white cardstock and blended Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink. I splattered a little bit of white paint on the wave.
Next I cut a strip of Kraft cardstock and tore the edges to add to the look of sand. To finish the card off, I blended Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink on the edges.

Hi Friends! It’s Dana here today and I am excited to be sharing a sneak peek of some of the new stencils coming to Pretty Pink Posh on June 14th.
My first card uses the fun new Layered Surfboard Stencil Set. This is a two pack of stencils. The first stencil creates the base of the surfboards and the second stencil adds the detail. I attached the first stencil to my card panel and used post it notes to mask off each surfboard. I added dye ink to each individual surfboard and then moved the post it note to cover and uncover the next one accordingly. This was an extra step though definitely worth it to be able to create a rainbow. Once my first layer was finished I attached the second stencil to my panel. I once again masked off each surfboard and applied the same color of ink for the detail.
For my sentiment, I stamped and die cut the word Summer from the Summer Drinks Set. I then used the Sea Friends set to stamp the word Hello. Lastly, I trimmed my panel down, attached it to an A2 card base and attached my sentiment with foam adhesive.
My next card uses the new Grid Stencil along with the Summer Drinks stamp set.
I started my card by creating my card panel with the Grid Stencil. I masked off the four squares and applied dye ink directly onto my panel. I love the graphic look you can create with this stencil.
Next, I stamped my drinks and sentiment with the Summer Drinks set. I colored the images with Copic markers and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. Lastly, I attached my images with foam adhesive to the card panel. Don’t you just love this stencil? It makes the perfect background.
Thanks for joining me today. I hope you enjoyed my cards and I will be back soon to share another project with you all.
Hi Friends! It is Dana here with a card that will have you dreaming about summer and vacation. Today’s card features two new dies from the June 14th release!
I started my card by creating my background with one of the dies from the Stacked Edges 3 Die Set. I pulled out cardstock in a rainbow of colors and ran the die through my die cutting machine multiple times. I attached the scallops to a piece of paper and then trimmed the edges to make my card panel. Next, I used the Vacation Scene Die to create my focal image. Such a fun die and I love how easy it is to use.
Lastly, I used the Summer Surfboards stamp set to stamp my sentiment. I stamped the sentiment onto a black cardstock strip with VersaMark ink and heat set it with white embossing powder.
Thanks for joining me today. I hope you enjoyed my “summery” card.
Hello friends! Get ready for another fun sneak peek of our June 14th release! It’s Leica here today with a Summer card featuring the new Summer Fun stamp set and Summer Borders stamp set.
I think this is the most coloring I’ve ever done in one card, but I enjoyed the process and my daughter said it turned out so cute. Let’s get started!
To begin, I cut an A2 size panel in white cardstock and made the background by stamping the ice cream and popsicle stamp from the Summer Borders stamp set. I colored with Copic markers in B0000/00/02, BV000/00/02, E42/43/44/47, R20/22/24, YR000/00/02/04. I then decided to color the entire panel with Copic R00. I could have definitely skipped this step by starting out with a light pink cardstock. For the stitching details, I ran the panel through my die cut machine using the Stitched Notes Die.
Next, I stamped the adorable tiger from the new Summer Fun Stamp Set. I also stamped the tiger from the Jungle Friends stamp set. I wanted to add more, my husband says it’s because “I’m so extra,” so I added the little trees, sun, ice cream and popsicle from the Summer Wreath stamp set.
For the images to pop out more against the busy background, I added vellum that I cut using the tag from the Spring Circles Dies. I adhered all the elements onto my panel and lastly, onto a card base.
I hope you are excited for the new release! There are other adorable critters included in the Summer Fun stamp set that I know you are going to love!
Thanks for stopping by today. Join us tomorrow for more sneak peeks!
