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 - Welcome Little One

mardi 31 mars 2026

Hello there,

I'm so happy to be back with this lovely baby themed card I've made to celebrate the birth of the sweet Kaia, Paulina's daughter (Paulina, the Pretty Pink Posh owner) The idea here was to create a half paneling wall with a wooden board on top to put baby items and decorations on, and maybe have enough space for a cute stuffed teddy bear to sneak a peek and keep a close eye on Kaia while she sleeps. And I'm usually a fan of bright and bold colors, but here I went for a soft and lovely color palette using papers from the Our Baby Girl 6x6 paper pack by Echo Park.


I started off by cutting the letters to make the word "baby" using the matching dies from the Baby stamp set. I cut those letters three times: out of pattern papers, out of white cardstock and out of dark kraft cardstock. I set the white and dark kraft letters aside, mixed copic opaque white ink with water, added white splatters to the pattern paper letters, and then did the same with liquid stardust for sparkles. When my four pattern paper letters were dry, I attached the white letters to the kraft letters using liquid glue, shifting them a little bit to get a brown border on the edges of the white letters. Next I attached the pattern paper letters to the white letters using 1mm foam, and again, shifting the letters a bit to get a white border on the edges of the pattern paper letters.


Next I cut the baby decorations and teddy bear pieces using the same paper pack from Echo Park for some items and white cardstock for others. I added white splatters to the bear's head and paws, to the stitched heart, bow and cubes as well, and added liquid stardust splatters to the white squares on the cubes, to the bear's cheeks and to the yellow bow. Here is a short detailed list of the die sets I used: • Bear Holder - bear's head, snout, nose and ears, stitched heart • Easter Mug Additions - bear's paws, cheeks and bow • Baby Mug Additions - small bow, cubes, small heart, star and duck.

I assembled all those pieces to create the cutest teddy bear and baby items, gave the bear a pair of googly eyes, and then moved on to the background. I cut three large Eyelet Rectangle panels: out of light kraft cardstock, out of dark kraft cardstock and out of a stripe pattern paper. I placed the "baby" letters on the stripe panel to see how tall it needed to be and then trimmed that panel. Next I used the second smallest Stitched Strips die to cut a slim strip out of the dark kraft panel. And then I used the Baby Words stencil along with white pigment ink to add more interest to the upper section on the light kraft panel. I mixed copic opaque white ink with water, added white splatters to the panel and then did the same with vintage photo distress ink for a bit of contrast and to match with the brown items on the card.


Next I attached everything, starting with the vertical stripe panel and the slim dark kraft strip above it using liquid glue. On the wooden board I first put the teddy bear, her paws and the cubes using 1mm foam squares and then the stitched heart using 2mm foam squares. I stuck my "baby" letters below the board using 1mm foam squares again, and then worked on my greeting. I white heat embossed "Welcome little one" from the Sentiment Strips: Occasions stamp set on dark brown cardstock, cut it into a slim banner using a Sentiment Strips die, and then attached that banner to my card using foam squares. Finally I attached my Eyelet Rectangle panel to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches white panel and then to a matching card base, I stuck the small bow to the "Y" for more cuteness, and applied glossy accents to the bear's nose for one more touch of shine.
