Pretty Pink Posh - Valentine's Day Cards

Hello, crafty friends!

Today, I am sharing 2 Valentine’s cards using products from the Pretty Pink Posh January release.

First, I made a slimline shaker card. I love that PPP now offers slimline dies, as this card size is still very popular. I took the first 2 large dies from the Slimline Peekaboo Windows die set and cut a frame in white cardstock.

For the back panel, I cut a 3.25” x 8.25” cardstock and used the new Lattice stencil in Faded Jeans distressed oxide.

I then stamped the scalloped heart from the Valentine Hearts stamp set 5 times and colored with Copic Markers in R35/37/39, B93/91. I turned them into heart balloons by adding strings. Next, I adhered them to the acetate using foam tape.

To make a well for the shaker card, I lined the frame with foam tape and also added foam tape behind the heart balloons so that some of the gems would stay in the top part of the card. The gems I used is Sweetheart Rhinestones. I then stamped the word “Love” from the Valentine Hearts stamp set and die cut with its coordinating die. Lastly, I used glossy accent for the heart-shaped balloons.

The next card is a clean and simple card using the Heart Vines die and All My Love stamp set.

First I stamped the heart from the All My Love stamp set and colored with Copic Markers. I then die cut the Heart Vines die and left all the pieces together.

I taped the heart that I've colored behind the Heart Vines die. Next, I glued on the entire piece to a 4.25" x 5.5" card base. For the sentiment, I used the Happy Valentine's Day stamp from the Love Stamp Set, embossed onto a black cardstock that I cut using the .25" strip from the Simple Strips die set, and adhered on the center of the heart. Lastly, I added Glossy Black Jewels for added texture and interest.

I hope you enjoyed these cards using the new items from the January release! I had so much fun creating these and I hope you are inspired to make Valentine's cards for your family and friends!

Heffy Doodle and Gerda Steiner Designs Collaboration

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Gerda Steiner Designs Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies! For this fun collaboration, I made a slimline birthday card. To begin, I stamped, colored, and cut images from Gerda Steiner Designs - On the Table , On the Bookshelf and the new Heffy Doodle Popping By stamp set. I then cut the largest rectangle from the Heffy Doodle Stitched Slimline Trio Dies in white cardstock. For my table, I used the Ain't So Plaid Stencil and inked with Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxides. The top portion is ink blended with Tattered Rose and I splattered some black and rose gold acrylic paint for interest. I then white heat embossed the happy birthday sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock. Next, I adhered the elements down onto the card. Lastly, I adhered my panel onto a slimline card base.

3D Paper Christmas Trees - Pretty Pink Posh

Hello and welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh October Release Blog Hop!!! Hello crafty friends! I have made the cutest 3D paper Christmas trees using the Pine Trees dies and I'm very excited to share some tips and tricks for making these trees. The Pine Trees include 3 different sizes and I was able to cut 4 of each from an 8.5" x 11" cardstock. The work is tedious, but the end result makes it all worthwhile. Just enjoy the process ;) Once all the pieces are cut, simply score in half and glue one side to the other. The more trees you add, the fluffier it gets. Here is my first tip: use a binder clip to keep the trees in place while the glue dries. I used 10 trees each for these pink ones: I cut some snowflakes from the Winter Mug dies and used them as tree toppers. How about some pretty, pink, posh ghosts? (You like what I did there? Hehe) The ghost die cut is also included in the Winter Mug dies. You can add a little bit of glue or just tuck it in-between the pages of the ...
