Pretty Pink Posh - Lovely Ladybugs

vendredi 24 avril 2026

Hello there,

I'm thrilled to be back with this bright and colorful Pretty Pink Posh card featuring the Lovely Ladybugs enjoying the spring season among beautiful flowers and lush greenery. I had a blast coloring those gorgeous ladybugs for the first time and pairing them with pretty peachy/coral flowers.


I started off by cutting a large Eyelet rectangle panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock, I masked the scalloped edges off with washi tape and covered the entire panel with saltwater taffy oxide ink. Next I added a bunch of cute ladybugs to my panel using the Layered Ladybugs stencil set along with candied apple and black soot oxide inks. I splattered water on my panel and dried it with a paper towel, I mixed black soot oxide ink with water and added black splatters all over my piece of paper, and I did the same with copic opaque white ink. Next I cut a vellum panel using the second largest Stitched Torn Rectangle die, added white splatters to that panel, and then put both panels aside to dry.

I stamped the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using memento tuxedo black ink, cut them all using the matching dies, and colored everything using my alcohol markers. The ladybugs are from the Lovely Ladybugs stamp set, the large leaves are from the Simple Thanks stamp set, and the flower clusters, branches and small leaves are from the Hummingbird Floral stamp set. When the coloring was done, I added highlights and details to each image using a white gel pen.


When my panels were dry, I temporarily taped the Stitched Torn Rectangle vellum panel to my Eyelet Rectangle panel using washi tape, and attached all the images to the vellum panel using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. I removed the washi tape, applied liquid glue at the back of my vellum panel, but only behind the images, stuck my vellum panel to the Layered Ladybugs panel, next the ladybug panel to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches peachy panel using 1mm foam tape, and finally the peachy panel to a matching card base using double sided tape. I white heat embossed "Bugs & Kisses" from the Lovely Ladybugs stamp set on black cardstock, cut it using the matching die, and finally attached it in the middle of my card using foam squares.

Pretty Pink Posh - Bees & Daisies

lundi 13 avril 2026

Hello there,

I'm so glad to be back with this cheerful spring themed card featuring two lovely Bee Friends from Pretty Pink Posh getting busy collecting pollen from those beautiful pink Daisies.


I started off by cutting a large Eyelet rectangle panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock, I masked the scalloped edges off with washi tape and created a cute brick pattern using the Brick Background stencil along with kitsch flamingo oxide ink. Next I splattered water all over the panel and used a paper towel to dry it, I mixed some picked raspberry oxide ink with water and added pink splatters to my panel, and then I did the same with copic opaque white ink. I also cut a vellum panel using the second largest Stitched Torn Rectangle die, added white splatters to that panel, and then put both of my panels aside to dry.

I stamped the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using memento tuxedo black ink, cut them all using the matching dies, and colored everything using my alcohol markers. The flowers and leaves are from the Daisies stamp set, and the bees are from the Bee Friends stamp set. When the coloring was done, I added highlights and details to each image using a white gel pen.


Back to my panels, I temporarily taped the Stitched Torn Rectangle vellum panel to my Eyelet Rectangle panel using washi tape, and attached all the images to the vellum panel using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. Next I removed the washi tape, applied liquid glue at the back of my vellum panel, but only behind the images, stuck my vellum panel to the brick panel, next the brick panel to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches dark pink panel using 1mm foam tape, and finally the dark pink panel to a matching card base using double sided sticky tape.

I white heat embossed "Bright spring wishes" from the Easter Banner Greetings stamp set on light pink cardstock, cut it into a wavy banner using a Banner Greetings 3 die, and then attached that banner to my card using foam squares. Finally I applied white blizzard nuvo drops to the bees wings for a touch of shine.

Lawn Fawn - Holy Moley Customized Box Card

jeudi 9 avril 2026

Hello there,

I'm so happy to be back with this Lawn Fawn Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up featuring some cute moles taking care of their garden, decorating their underground house, and getting a cheeky guest to celebrate the arrival of the spring season.


I built the box card first using the Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up die set. I cut the base pieces out of Algae cardstock, the decorative elements out of Into The Woods 6x6 pattern papers, and cut the underground opening using a die from the Shadow Box Card Fireplace Add-On. Please watch the video down below to see how it was assembled.


When my box card was done, I stamped all the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using Jet Black ink, I cut them using the matching dies, and colored everything with my Ohuhu markers and my Graph'it brush markers.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used:  A mole lot of love + add-onmoles, piles of soil, «holy moley»  A mole lot of flowersmole & wheelbarrow  Spring baskettulips, bow  Carrot 'bout youbarrow, tulips, «spring has sprung»  All the grassesgrass  All the garden hatshat  All the speech bubblesspeech bubbles  Veggie happy + add-onfence, bag of soil, worms, tools  Garden mousesmall flowerpot, tulips.


To stick the images to the insert pieces, I used strips of acetate and 3mm glue dots, and again, you are welcome to watch the video down below to see how it was done. And to stick the images to the front of the box and inside the underground, I used 1mm and 2mm foam squares. Finally I white heat embossed my "Happy Spring" greeting from Spring Basket on N°2 Pencil cardstock, cut it into a fishtail banner using the second Everyday Sentiment Banner die, and then stuck that banner to the back of my box using 1mm foam squares.

Pretty Pink Posh - Hoppy Easter

dimanche 5 avril 2026

Hi there, happy Easter to those who celebrate it!

I'm thrilled to be back today with this Easter themed slimline card inspired by the Halloween stockings card I made back in October 2025 and the Christmas stockings card I made back in October 2023. This time, the stockings are filled with carrots and chocolate bunnies, flowers have bloomed in the trees and I picked pastel colors to match with the Spring season.


I started off by stamping my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using Memento tuxedo black ink, I cut them all using the matching dies and colored everything with my alcohol markers. Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used:  Spring Birdhouses - branches  Holiday Stockings - stockings  Easter Signs - butterflies, bunny, chicks, greeting  Easter Wreath - chicks  Easter Icons - bows, small chicks, carrots, chocolate bunnies  Easter Greetings - tulips, daisies  Tea Time - flowers.


When the coloring was done, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and then moved on to the background. I cut a large Slimline Peekaboo Windows panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock and masked the stitched edges off with washi tape. I used washi tape again to divide my panel in two sections. First a slim section at the bottom: I colored it with mowed lawn oxide ink, mixed rustic wilderness oxide ink with water and added green splatters to my grass border.

Next I covered the rest of the panel with spun sugar oxide ink, and then added words all over the panel using the Easter Words stencil along with kitsch flamingo oxide ink. I splattered water on my panel, dried it with a paper towel, I mixed copic opaque white ink with water and added white splatters to my panel, and then did the same with picked raspberry oxide ink.


I removed the washi tape, and when my panel was dry I attached it to an 8,5 x 3,5 inches purple panel using 1mm foam tape, and next my purple panel to a matching card base using double sided tape. And finally I attached all the images to my panel using 1mm and 2mm foam squares.

Pretty Pink Posh - Easter Bunny Mugs

mardi 24 mars 2026

Hello there,

I'm very happy to be back with this extra colorful card featuring a mash-up of new Pretty Pink Posh items, such as the Easter Bunny Mugs, with older ones, such as the Doily Borders. I've had this border die set for a long time, and it was fun to finally use it!


I started off by creating the background, and I knew that my Easter Bunny Mugs would be mostly neutrals, so that's why I went for a bright and bold background. I cut multiple Doily Borders out of pink, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple cardstock, mixed copic opaque white ink with water and added white splatters all over the borders. I did the same with liquid stardust because I can't help myself but adding sparkles to all my cards, and when my Doily Borders were dry, I attached them one below each other to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches white panel using 1mm foam squares. Next I cut a large Scallop Frame out of white cardstock, and stuck it to the colorful Doily Borders using 1mm foam squares again.


I cut the Easter Bunny Mugs items out of colored cardstock, pattern papers and vellum, added texture to each element using liquid stardust, copic opaque white ink and a white gel pen, and then I assembled my mugs using 1mm foam squares. The only items that don't belong to the Easter Bunny Mug die set are the heart cheeks, collars and bunny white snouts. I used a Valentine Bucket Additions die to cut the hearts, Spring Mug Additions dies to cut the collars and the bow ties, and a Bear Holder die to cut the bunny white snouts.


I gave both of the bunny mugs a pair of googly eyes to make them extra cute, applied glossy accents to their nose and white blizzard nuvo drops to their cheeks, and picked orange hearts from the Colorful Hearts confetti mix that I glued in the center of each bow tie. To tone down my colorful background a bit, I cut a large Eyelet Oval panel out of vellum, added white splatters to it and attached it right in the middle of my Doily Borders panel. Next I stuck the Easter Bunny Mugs using 1mm foam for one and 2mm foam squares for the other, and then stamped two Easter Banner Greetings. I white heat embossed "Spring Greetings" on blue cardstock and "Some Bunny Loves You" on purple cardstock, used a Banner Greetings 3 die to cut the first one and a Banner Greetings 1 die to cut the second one, and finally attached them both to my card using foam squares.

Pretty Pink Posh - Floral Wreath & Bunny Kisses

lundi 9 mars 2026

Hey there,

I'm back with this cute and pretty card showcasing a beautiful floral wreath and a cheeky bunny ready to properly celebrate the arrival of Spring. Obviously, here I put flowers in my wreath to create a Spring themed card, but you definitely could replace them with Easter eggs for a cute and fun Easter themed card. The Pretty Pink Posh die collection is so diverse that the possibilities are endless!


I started off by cutting a large Eyelet Rectangle panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock, I covered the stitched edges with washi tape and then applied spun sugar oxide ink all over the panel. To match with the Spring theme, I used the Layered Blooming Vines stencil set to create a beautiful floral pattern on my light pink panel. For the greenery I applied rustic wilderness oxide ink, for the flowers I applied worn lipstick oxide ink and for the small dots I applied fossilized amber oxide ink. Next I splattered water on my panel and dried it with a piece of paper towel, I mixed vintage photo distress ink with water and added brown splatters to my panel with a slim brush, and I did the same with copic opaque white ink. When my panel was dry, I attached it to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches light brown woodgrain panel using 1mm foam tape, and then to a white card base using double sided sticky tape.


I cut the wreath out of green cardstock using the Floral Wreath Builder die set. In the end we can see it, and that was the point, I just needed it as a base to glue all the leaves. Speaking of which, I cut them all out of two different pattern papers: a green stripes pattern paper and a green plaid pattern paper. I added white splatters to each of them and when they were dry, I attached them to my wreath base using liquid glue. To add more interest to my wreath, I used the same die as the one I used to cut the base to cut another wreath out of vellum, I added white splatters to it, and then stuck it to my leafy wreath using liquid glue. Next I used the ring die from the Floral Wreath Builder die set to cut a ring out of the same light brown woodgrain cardstock as the card base, added vintage photo distress ink splatters to the ring, and then attached it on top of the vellum wreath using liquid glue. This ring is mostly covered by the flowers but we still can see it between the bunny's paws.

Still using the Floral Wreath Builder die set, I cut the flowers and started with the pink ones: I cut the large petals out of a pink cross pattern paper, the small petals out of light pink cardstock and the pistils out of yellow cardstock. I added white splatters to the petals and pistils, liquid stardust splatters only to the light pink petals, and fossilized amber distress spritz splatters only to the pistils. I let them dry and assembled them using 1mm foam squares. For the daisies, I cut the petals out of white cardstock and the pistils out of yellow cardstock. I added liquid stardust splatters only to the white petals, and white splatters and fossilized amber distress spritz splatters to the pistils. Again I let them dry and assembled them with 1mm foam squares. I also cut three branches out of dark kraft cardstock and added white splatters to each of them.


Next I cut the bunny pieces using dies from the Big Easter Cupcake die set. I cut the bunny's behind and paws out of light kraft cardstock, and cut the tail and paw pads out of white cardstock. I added vintage photo distress ink splatters to the light kraft pieces, liquid stardust splatters to the tail pieces, and then assembled the paws using liquid glue and the fluffy tail using a 1mm foam square.

I cut a Stitched Torn Rectangle panel out of vellum using the second largest die from that set, attached my leafy wreath on the upper section using 1mm foam squares, stuck the bunny pieces at the bottom of the wreath, and then all the flowers and branches using foam squares and liquid glue. Next I worked on my greeting and cut a banner out of dark brown cardstock using a Banner Greeting 2 die, on that banner I white heat embossed "Sending bunny kisses" from Easter Banner Greetings, I folded the banner on each end, and then attached it below the wreath using 2mm foam squares.

Pretty Pink Posh - Spring Chick Shaker Card

lundi 23 février 2026

Hey there,

I'm thrilled to be back on the blog with this bright and cheerful card featuring some of the brand new items from the Pretty Pink Posh February 2026 release. As I've already mentioned in previous blog posts, I'm a huge fan of the Shaker Collection, and that Chick Shaker caught my attention right away, it's such a cutie!


I started off by cutting a large Pinking Rectangle panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock, I masked the stitched edges off with washi tape, covered the whole panel with tumbled glass oxide ink, and then added a fun pattern using the Mini Checker stencil along with broken china oxide ink. Next I mixed copic opaque white ink with water, added white splatters to my panel using a slim brush, and then did the same with tumbled glass distress spritz for some sparkles.


While my panel was drying, I worked on my Chick Shaker and assembled it just like any other shaker item I've made in the past, following those steps:
1. I cut a Chick Shaker frame out of a multicolored stripe pattern paper, cut a whole chick out of acetate, and attached that acetate panel at the back of the multicolored frame using liquid glue,
2. Still at the back of the multicolored frame, I attached foam strips all around it, following the rounded edges of the chick,
3. I poured a bunch of Bunny Hop shaker beads inside the chick,
4. I cut another whole chick out of a yellow pattern paper, added white splatters and fossilized amber distress spritz splatters to that yellow panel,
5. When dry, I attached my yellow panel to the foam strips to totally close my Chick Shaker.

Next I added a few more details to my Chick Shaker. I cut two small hearts out of pink cardstock using a Valentine Bucket Additions die, cut the beak and feet out of orange cardstock using other Chick Shaker dies, and picked two giant googly eyes from my stash. I stuck the beak and the heart cheeks using 1mm foam squares, peeled the backing papers off the eyes and attached them as well, and then stuck the feet using liquid glue. For more cuteness, I applied glossy accents to the beak and feet, white blizzard nuvo drops to the heart cheeks, and set my Chick Shaker aside to dry.


I cut all the Stitched Spring Flowers out of colored cardstock and pattern papers, added texture to each piece using liquid stardust, copic opaque white ink, fossilized amber distress spritz, and when everything was dry, I assembled all the flowers and greenery using foam squares.

Next I cut a Pierced Leafy Vines panel out of kraft cardstock, stuck it to a matching card base using double sided sticky tape, and attached my Mini Checker panel on top using 1mm foam tape. I stuck my Stitched Spring Flowers on both sides of the card in a symmetrical way using foam squares again, gave them more interest by bending the petals a little bit with my fingers, and then attached my cute Chick Shaker right in the middle of the card using more foam squares. For my greeting, I white heat embossed "Bright Spring Wishes" from Easter Banner Greetings, cut it into a wavy banner using a Banner Greetings 3 die, and stuck that banner to the Chick Shaker using foam squares.

Pretty Pink Posh - Watering Can Shaker Card

jeudi 12 février 2026

Hi there,

I'm super happy to be back with this lovely Spring card showcasing several items from the Pretty Pink Posh February 2026 Release. A fun and colorful shaker card that makes you feel that Spring has finally arrived!


I started off by working on the card base and cut a large Eyelet Rectangle panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock. I masked the stitched and eyelet edges off with washi tape and covered the entire panel with spun sugar oxide ink. Next I used Layered Watering Can stencil set along with broken china, shaded lilac, mowed lawn, worn lipstick, spiced marmalade and fossilized amber oxide inks to create a lovely background. This background ends up mostly covered by all the elements on the card, but it still adds colors and cuteness behind the bunny, watering can and flowers.

I mixed copic opaque white ink with water and added white splatters all over the panel. I did the same with worn lipstick distress spritz and then with spiced marmalade distress spritz for a touch of sparkles. I removed the washi tape, let my panel dry, and then attached it to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches blue panel using 1mm foam tape.


Next I worked on the Watering Can Shaker, and build it like any of the other Pretty Pink Posh Shakers I've created in the past:

1. First I cut a Watering Can Shaker frame out of a multicolored stripe pattern paper,
2. I cut a whole watering can out of vellum, and attached it at the back of the frame using liquid glue,
3. Still at the back of the frame, I attached foam sticky strips all along the frame, following the shape of the watering can,
4. I poured a bunch of Bunny Hop shaker beads on the vellum,
5. I cut another whole watering can out of the same blue cardstock as the card base, and attached it to the foam strips to totally close my Watering Can Shaker,
6. I cut the watering can handle out of purple cardstock, added white splatters to it, and once dry, stuck it to my Watering Can Shaker using 1mm foam squares,
7. Finally I cut the watering can head out of the same blue cardstock again, added white splatters to it, and stuck it using 1mm foam squares.


Next I cut all the bits and pieces I needed to complete my card out of colored cardstock, white cardstock, pattern papers and vellum. I added white splatters to the tulips, leaves, branches, butterflies, bunny, paws and bows. Added liquid stardust splatters to the daisies, vellum butterflies and bows. Added fossilized amber distress spritz splatters to the daisies center pieces, and vintage photo distress spritz splatters to the butterflies bodies. Here is a detailed list of the die sets I used:

 Stitched Spring Flowers - tulips, daisies, leaves, branches  Springtime Holder Additions - butterflies  Bunny Holder - bunny  Bear Holder - bunny snout  Big Easter Cupcake - bunny paws  Valentine Bucket Additions - heart cheeks  Easter Bunny Mugs - bows.

I assembled the flowers, leaves and butterflies using foam squares and liquid glue, assembled the bunny's face and gave him a pair of googly eyes, and then I attached everything to my card using foam squares, starting with the flowers behind the bunny, next the bunny, the Watering Can Shaker, the Stitched Spring Flowers cluster at the bottom, the butterflies and then the bunny's paws.

I white heat embossed "Hello Spring" from Spring Blooms on yellow cardstock, cut it using the matching die and attached it to the watering can using foam squares again. To finish my card, I applied glossy accents to the bunny's nose and white blizzard nuvo drops to the heart cheeks.

Pretty Pink Posh - Chick Holder & Springtime Holder Additions Rainy Card

lundi 9 février 2026

Hello there,

I'm super happy to be back with this adorable Spring card showcasing Pretty Pink Posh products, mostly from the February 2026 Release. This card features the cutest little chick taking care of his tulips and daisies on a rainy day, but lucky him, he has a lovely pink umbrella to keep his feathers dry.


I started off by creating the rainy background, and cut a 5,5 inches square panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock. I temporarily taped the center piece of the Watercolor Circle stencil set right in the middle of my panel using rolled-up pieces of washi tape, applied shaded lilac oxide ink to the edges of my panel, and darkened the inside edges a little bit by applying some wilted violet oxide ink.

I removed the center piece of the Watercolor Circle stencil set, temporarily taped the edge piece of the stencil set, applied tumbled glass oxide ink in the center of my panel, and then removed the stencil.

Next I taped the Raindrops stencil on top of my panel, and added raindrops using wilted violet oxide on the purple edges and broken china oxide ink on the middle section of my panel. I mixed copic opaque white ink with water, added white splatters all over the panel, and did the same with liquid stardust. And then I did the same on the purple section with wilted violet distress spritz and the same again on the blue section with tumbled glass distress spritz. When my panel was dry, I attached it to a 4,75 inches square white card base using 1mm foam tape.


I cut all the bits and pieces out of white cardstock, vellum, colored cardstock and pattern papers. I added white splatters to the chick, umbrella, vellum clouds, tulips, daisies center pieces, leaves and flowerpots, added liquid stardust splatters to the white clouds, light pink umbrella pieces and daisies, and added fossilized amber distress spritz splatters to the daisies center pieces. I let everything dry, and then assembled all the elements using 1mm foam squares.

Here is a detailed list of the die sets I used:  Chick Holder - chick, beak, feet  Springtime Holder Additions - umbrella, flowers, leaves, flowerpots  Stitched Clouds - clouds  Bunny Holder - chick belly  Valentine Bucket Additions - heart cheeks.


I gave the chick a pair of large googly eyes, and then attached everything to my card using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. For my greeting, I white heat embossed "Spring Has Sprung" from Easter Banner Greetings on blue cardstock, cut it into a wavy banner using a Banner Greetings 3 die, and attached that banner to my card using foam squares again. Finally I applied glossy accents to the chick's beak and feet, and white blizzard nuvo drops to his heart cheeks.
