Hi friends, it’s Jane! It’s Thanksgiving theme week here at Pretty Pink Posh, and I’m so happy to be sharing this adorable card with you today!

Save 15% on all items in the Thanksgiving section this week!

Since many of us may not be able to share thanksgiving with loved ones this year, I thought it would be sweet to send a few cards in the mail.  Just little reminders to friends and family for everything we have to be thankful for this year!

To start, I ink blended the background on a piece of A2 Bristol smooth cardstock using the following distress oxide inks:  rusty hinge, mustard seed and squeezed lemonade.  Leave the bottom quarter of the card unblended for the stamped images.  Next, I used the same ink colors to stamp leaves from the Giving Thanks stamp set for interest.  Then using a piece of Bristol smooth card stock, I stamped the images from the same set using versafine onyx black ink.  

Images were then colored using the following Zig clean color brush markers:  Bears: 064, 028,  female bears:  021, 026, 025 and 052, 071, 070, male bears: 043, 041, 060, 067Pumpkins: 070, 052, 202, 021, 046, 044 and pumpkin tops 072 and 065.

White gel pen used to accent the images and then the images were cut using the coordinating dies. 

Lastly, I stamped the “happy thanksgiving” sentiment from the Giving Thanks stamp set using brown ink and then cut the background using the Stitched Notes die.  The border around the card was adhered to an A2 white card base using foam tape.  The center portion and all of the images were adhered to the card front using liquid glue.  And that finishes the card!

Thank you so much for stopping by today.  Be sure to stop by the thanksgiving section  for 15% off thanksgiving items during this week!

Hi all! Lindsay here on the blog today bringing you a card featuring some of my favorite Pretty Pink Posh holiday dies!

I started with a piece of watercolor paper that I colored with Nuvo Shimmer Powders in various green shades. Once that was dry, I splattered it with white and black splatters.

The centerpiece of this card is then die cut from that watercolored piece using all the tree elements from the Layered Tree Dies. While I had the Layered Tree Dies out, I die cut the small accompanying images of ornaments, stars, and bows from red, gold, and silver glitter cardstock. I knew I wanted the tree to pop on a white background, but wanted a little extra pizzazz, so I cut out the Winter Frame Die from white cardstock for a tone on tone layered background.

Once I had added all of the goodies to the tree, I mounted it using foam background onto the white background with the Winter Frame details. I finished it off with a gold embossed sentiment from the Holiday Signs Stamp Set on red cardstock.

Hope this card inspires you to use some of my favorite PPP products!

Hi Everyone! It is Melody here with you today and I have a Fall Thank You card to share that also doubles as a gift card holder. A handmade card can make a gift card even more special!

I started by cutting a piece of white cardstock to fit the card front and stenciled with the Pumpkin Background Stencil and Tim Holtz Antique Linen Distress Ink. At the top I stamped the sentiment from the Pumpkin Patch Critters Stamp Set, one of my favorite fall stamp sets! 

To create the gift card pocket I cut a piece of white cardstock, about half the size of the card front, and then die cut the top with the Pocket Border Die. To attach the pocket to the card front I used double stick tape on three sides, leaving the top open. 

I die cut the fence with the Spooky Fence Die. I used a combination of two stamp sets and their coordinating dies to create the scene at the bottom of the card, the Pumpkin Patch Critters Stamp Set, the Pumpkin Patch Critters Coordinating Dies, Fall Signs Stamp Set, and the Fall Signs Coordinating Dies. The stamped images are colored with Copic Markers. The card is finished off with a few Espresso Jewels. 

Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope this gives you a new idea for giving a gift card. 

Hi Friends! It is Dana here today and I am excited to be back on the PPP blog sharing a card with you all. For my card, I am using a fun mix of supplies from Pretty Pink Posh. Let’s get started, shall we?

I started my card by creating an alcohol ink background. I used a rainbow of pearl colors and yupo paper. The colors I used were Pearl Deception, Splendor, Alchemy, Envy, Tranquil and Villainous. I added the inks directly to a piece of felt (attached to a dauber), added a little blending solution and swiped it across my Yupo paper. Once my panel was dry I ran it through my die cutting machine with the Bold Butterflies Die. Don’t you just love this butterfly? It is so fun and I love all the possibilities with this type of die.

For my card layout, I splattered a white panel with a little black reinker. I then used the Scallop Border 1 Die to create the decorative edge at the bottom of my white panel. Next, I used a leftover piece of my alcohol ink paper for the bottom of the card. To finish my card, I stamped my sentiment from the Simple Sentiments Stamp Set and heat set it with white embossing powder. Lastly, I attached my butterfly and sentiment to my card panel with foam adhesive. 

Thanks for stopping by. I hope I inspired you to pull out your alcohol inks and create some fun patterns for die cutting. Have a wonderful day.

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I have a card to share with you all using the Thanks Shaker Die. I also created an off the edge shaker effect too.

To begin, I cut the Thanks Shaker Die from the middle of some white cardstock. I then used the Small Stitched Foliage Dies to cut two smaller leaves on either side as well.

I used my Fuse Tool from WRMK and created a large pocket for the larger leaf first. I left and opening and filled it with some sequins. I then fused the last section together and that created the pocket. I repeated this for the last two smaller leaves as well but instead of fusing together all four sides, I folded the sleeve over to create a folded edge for the side of the card and then proceeded to use the Fuse Tool on the other three sides.

I then adhered my sequin pockets on the back of the die cut panel and added foam tape around them all. I used the same Thanks Shaker Die and cut it from some orange, black and white cardstock. I adhered down the orange layer on top and then the black and white for the words. Lastly, I adhered the entire panel onto a white card base.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you enjoyed, and I’ll see you all next time.

Hi everyone, Jane here today sharing this cute monochromatic Halloween card with you! This card uses vellum and pretty pink posh jewels to add some fun elements to the scene!

To start the card, I used a piece of black cardstock and spattered some white acrylic paint using an old paint brush.  Next, I used the Nature Essentials die to cut the puffy clouds at the bottom of the panel.  The background clouds are from the Fly A Kite stamp set and the moon is from the Halloween Friends stamp set.  Black cardstock cut using the bat die from the halloween friends stamp set and glued to the background to create a shadow of a bat.  A piece of vellum was layered over the background to soften the scene and make it appear foggy.  

Next, I stamped the images from Trick or Treat Friends (batgirl) and Halloween Friends (bats) using black ink.  Copic markers used for the bat girl are: N7, N5, N3, N1, Y19, Y21, YR30, E55, E53 and E50.  White gel pen used for accents on the images. The images were cut using the coordinating dies and adhered to the card front. Next, I stamped a sentiment from trick or treat friends using black stazOn ink. Black jewels were added to the bottom layer to mimic gravel.  Lastly, I added a black border cut using the Nature Essentials die and adhered the card front to a gray piece of A2 cardstock.  The entire front of the card was then attached to a white card base and that completes the card!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hi friends! Tammy here with you today! It’s finally starting to feel a bit like Fall here in the Southwest, so I was inspired to create a fun Fall card and tag project, using the adorable Pumpkin Patch Critters Stamp Set.

To begin, I stamped, colored with Copic markers, and die cut images from the following stamp sets: Pumpkin Patch Critters/ Coordinating Dies, Giving Thanks/ Coordinating Dies, Autumn Wreath/ Coordinating Dies

Next, I cut a panel of  Bristol Smooth cardstock to 3 1/4 X 8 1/4″ and ink blended the background with Worn Lipstick, Spun Sugar, Scattered Straw, and Rusty Hinge Distress Oxide inks. I splattered some watered down gold acrylic paint onto my background to add some interest, then attached the background panel to a 3 1/2 X 8 1/2″ white cardstock base.

I stamped the sentiment from Pumpkin Patch Critters in black ink and arranged the die cut images onto my card to create a sweet Fall scene.

To create the shaker tag, I used the Stitched Banner Duo 1 Dies, and cut it twice from Copic friendly white cardstock. I ink blended one panel with Spun Sugar, Scattered Straw , and Rusty Hinge Distress Oxide inks, and die cut a square on the other banner to create a window. I stamped the sentiment from Pumpkin Patch Critters, then I added acetate, foam tape, and 3mm Sparkling Clear Sequins to create my shaker tag. I attached my critter and pumpkins to the tag, punched a hole, and threaded some orange and white bakers twine to complete my tag. This would be so cute attached to a coffee cup, filled with Pumpkin Spice everything! I’m making a bunch of these to send to my favorite college students!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed today’s projects and were inspired to create some Fall projects!

Hugs, Tammy
