Hi, friends, it’s Lauren. Can you believe the school year is coming to an end and we’re approaching graduation season? Pretty Pink Posh just released some new products to help with your congratulations projects and I’m sharing how to incorporate the new Graduation Mug Additions Dies with the Winter Mug Dies to make a shaker card!
Next I stenciled my background on the Wonky Stitched Square with the Layered Graduation Stencils. I used Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide with the A stencil, Scattered Straw with the B stencil, and gold stencil paste with the C stencil. While it dried, I assembled my mug together as a shaker. I cut confetti from the Graduation Mug Additions Dies, but also included the new Aqua Shimmer Confetti inside the shaker.
I adhered my card together on a 4-1/4 x 4-1/4″ card base and layered some blue vellum trimmed to 4-1/8 x 4-1/8″ as well as the stenciled background. The shaker mug was then glued onto the card as well as the other graduation die cut details. My sentiment was added to the top of the mug and the card is complete! I hope you’re inspired to use your Graduation Mug Additions Dies, too.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day!
Hello, Gemma here. I love the new Layered Music Notes stencil. I made a Father’s Day card and improvised some vinyl records to continue the musical theme.
I chose an ombré of blue distress oxide inks for my background – tumbled glass, stormy sky and chipped sapphire. I trimmed down the panel and adhered to a top folding A2 card base.
Next, I die cut the Stitched Duo 2 die from both navy blue and pearl black sparkle card stock. This die cuts a stitched rectangle panel with 6 stitched circles. I’ll only use the circles from the black stitched duo 2 die cut, but can keep the panel for another card.
On the bottom edge of the navy blue die cut panel, I white heat embossed a father’s day greeting from the Dad stamp set. It fits perfectly in this space.
I adhered the navy panel and circles to the centre of my stencilled panel. I then adhered the black sparkle circles on top, to be my records.
To complete the look, I adhered some of the new Aqua Shimmer and Blue Shimmer to the centre of the circles. You could also use normal sequins, to give the hole in the centre, but I really wanted to use these beautiful new shimmer confetti mixes on my card today.
Thanks for joining me today! I hope you were inspired by this card idea!
Hello crafty friends. It’s Lisa Mears here. Today I’m sharing a slimline birdhouse card. These birdhouses can be used on cards for just about any occasion.
I colored my images using Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens in the following colors — Peach Pink, Turquoise Green, May Green, Orange, Light Blue, Lemon Yellow, Mid Brown, and the Blender. After I colored them, I die cut them with the coordinating dies.
For the card background, I used the Layered Clouds Stencil along with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink. I cut the background to 3 1/4” x 8 1/4”.
I added the largest Slimline Scallop Frame dies to the stenciled background and then added my stamped images and sentiment. Finally, I added the card layer to a slimline card base which measures 3 1/2” x 8 1/2”.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day! Lisa Mears
Hello crafty friends, it’s Leica here. Are you looking for a unique and personalized graduation card idea? Look no further than the new Graduation Mug Additions Dies by Pretty Pink Posh! These versatile dies allow you to create customizable graduation-themed elements in any color scheme, making them perfect for celebrating the achievements of your loved ones.
To showcase these dies, I decided to make a box card in light blue cardstock using the Scallop Box Card Dies. I love how this card design adds dimension and interest, while also providing plenty of space to add your own embellishments or stamped images.
For the background panel of the box card, I chose a sheet of patterned paper with stars that added a festive touch. Then, I used the Graduation Mug Additions Dies to cut out the graduation-themed elements in black, blue, gold, silver, yellow, and white cardstocks. I particularly loved the graduation cap and diploma, which added a playful and celebratory touch to the card.
To make these elements appear as if they were floating, I adhered strips of acetate to the banners, graduation cap, numbers, and stars. This technique created a fun and dynamic effect that made the card stand out even more.
Finally, to add a touch of elegance and sophistication, I hot foiled the Hot Foil Congrats Script in gold foil on white cardstock and cut it with the Congrats Shadow Dies. I love that the Hot Foil Dies make it easy to add stunning metallic accents to my projects.
That’s all for my card share for today. Thank you for reading, and I hope my card has inspired you to create your own handmade cards using the Graduation Mug Additions Dies! Have a great day!
Hi everyone! It’s Leica here. I’m excited to share a card I made using Pretty Pink Posh’s new Just A Notestamp set and Layered Music Notes Stencils. For this card, I started by cutting a 4.75 inch circle in white cardstock and ink blending it with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink. To add more interest, I splattered it with white ink.
Next, I cut a 4.5 inch circle white cardstock and a 4 inch scallop circle in a light pink cardstock, which I added a pattern to using the Layered Music Notes Stencils with Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Inks. This stencil made it so easy to create a fun and playful background for the card panel.
To add the sentiment, I cut the ornate label die from the Get Well Sooncoordinating dies in white cardstock and stamped it with the sentiment from theJust A Notestamp set. I glued the circle panels to create a layered look and foam mounted the ornate die with the sentiment.
For a cute touch, I added a little bird using theStitched Birds Dies and a few little notes from the Just A Notestamp set. Finally, to create the card base, I cut another 4.75 inch circle in white cardstock, scored and folded it at the .75 inch mark, and glued this flap onto the card panel.
I’m really happy with how this card turned out and I love how it can be used for any occasion. I hope this inspires you to create your own unique cards using Pretty Pink Posh’s wonderful products. Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!
The Get Well Soon stamp set has a lot of cute images such as a tissue box, tea cup, soup bowl, thermometer, bandaid, bouquet of flowers, and several sentiments. I wanted to use several of the images on my card so I decided to stamp many of them in a random pattern on the cardstock to create my own pattern paper.
I stamped the images onto Bristol Smooth cardstock that I cut to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and colored them with Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens in the following colors — Turquoise Green, Sugar Almond Pink, Flesh Colour, Lemon Yellow, Pale Gray, Mid Brown, and the Blender. After I colored them, I die cut them with the coordinating dies.
I die cut the label for the sentiment using the Get Well Soon coordinating die set and stamped a sentiment on it. I added the label to the card with foam to give it some dimension and then added a few more stamps around the sentiment.
Finally, I added the stamped card layer to a piece of teal cardstock that measures 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” and then added it to an A2 card base.
Thank you for stopping by today. Have a great day! Lisa Mears
Hello, it’s Barbara here and I’m happy to be sharing a card using the new release from Pretty Pink Posh. If you’re new to PPP, they released a Winter Mug die set and since then, have come out with several additions to go along with it. The newest one, Get Well MugAdditions is the one I’m using today.
I created this card using an A2 size card base made from smooth white cardstock. I cut a panel of yellow cardstock stamped with a gingham background stamp in a darker yellow ink. The mug is from the Winter Mug die set. I cut it out of gray cardstock and used some distress ink to add some dimension. All the other die elements are from the Get Well MugAdditions die set that I cut from white cardstock.
These elements were colored with copic markers. I used a white gel pen to add highlights. I glued the die cuts together and then popped everything up using some 3d foam adhesive for extra dimension.
I hope you enjoyed this card. If you want to see more of my guest designer projects, visit me on Instagram!

Hello crafty friends! Davina here sharing brand new products from the May release. This beautifully curated release is full of items for all of our spring/summer events, like Graduations and Fathers Day, pretty bird themed sets, and more.
I especially loved these detailed Decorative Birdhouses Die Set. All of the pretty stitched details and various door options made it so fun to play with. I cut each house from Bristol Smooth Cardstock two times. With one of each design, I inkblended the house with Distress Oxide Ink, then secured the scallop edge and trim with washi tape from behind. I also added a little bit of marker detail to each house.
Next, I adhered the white trim from my second die cut houses, layered on top, and used a darker marker to color the small strips. Then, I cut and added the doors to each little house.
I was so excited that the birds from A Little Birdie stamp set fit so perfectly with these houses. I stamped and colored three birds to add to my houses, and layered them onto a slimline cardbase that I gently inked. I stamped the nice long branch from the Spring Birdhouses stamp set onto the cardbase as well. I intentionally left it as an outline so it wouldn’t distract from my little row of cute houses. I finished this off with a heat embossed sentiment and a sprinkling of colored confetti from the new Rainbow Shimmer Confetti Mix.
Make sure you “Hop along” all three days to see the incredible DT samples with this wonderful release,

Hey there, crafty friends! Leica here. I’m so excited to show you my latest creation featuring the new Decorative Birdhouses Die, Stitched Birds Die, and the previously-released Spring Foliage Die from Pretty Pink Posh. This circle-shaped card turned out so cute, and I can’t wait to share all the details with you!
To start off, I cut a 4.5 inch circle from some white cardstock and used the Layered Clouds Stencils with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink to create a fluffy cloud background. Then, I matted the panel onto a 5 inch circle that I had ink blended with Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink. The colors complemented each other so nicely!
To add some extra texture, I splattered some white ink onto the card. It turned out so cute and added a fun, playful touch.
I finished it off with a sentiment that I heat embossed in white on a strip of black cardstock. It really popped against the colorful cardstock shapes.
To create a sturdy base for the card, I cut another 5 inch circle from white cardstock and scored it at the .75 inch mark. I folded it up and glued the flap onto the card panel. It worked like a charm!
