Love You Boo Valentine's Day Card with Pretty Pink Posh

Hi friends! I’m excited to share a fun project featuring the Valentine Ghost Friends Stamp Set. This adorable set inspired me to create a unique Valentine’s Day card by combining it with an older favorite—the Halloween House Dies. I gave it a small makeover to fit the season, proving that spooky can be sweet too! Let me walk you through the process of bringing this card to life.

I started with the Halloween House Die, transforming it into a charming centerpiece for my card. To tone down the Halloween vibe, I trimmed off the sharp, spooky details from the roof, making it more whimsical and less eerie. Using an adhesive sheet on black cardstock, I die-cut the house to create a large, sticker-like element. After carefully peeling and attaching the frame to an ombré pink and peach background, I added extra details like glittery white window panes and paper pieced the black inserts of the roof.

Next, I focused on the sentiment. I used the Hot Foil Large Boo Script to create a stunning sentiment with an iridescent rainbow finish, cutting it out with the Large Boo Shadow Dies. For the second part of the sentiment, I stamped “love you” onto a Sentiment Strip, aligning it perfectly behind the “boo” for a playful yet polished design. To tie it all together, I colored two adorable ghosts from the Valentine Ghost Friends Stamp Set. Keeping their hues light and pinkish, I added subtle shading and details like rosy cheeks and ombre shaded heart-shaped sunglasses for a sweet touch before using the Coordinating Dies to cut them out.

With all the elements ready, I assembled the card on a top-folding A2 card base, leaving a small white border for contrast. After positioning the house, I added the ghosts and sentiment with foam adhesive, and I finished with some Valentine Hearts Clay Confetti for extra charm. The result? A delightful card that blends spooky and sweet, perfect for Halloween or Valentine’s Day! I hope you enjoyed crafting along with me. Let me know in the comments which ghost from the set is your favorite. Thanks for stopping by, and have a wonderful day!

Joy Winter Hat Shaker Card with Pretty Pink Posh

Hi, friends! The throwback card I made with Pretty Pink Posh to share today is using the Layered Winter Hats Stencils and I was inspired by the Berry Bright Shaker Beads colors. I started with a pink cardstock and used Distress Oxides in Festive Berries for the (A) stencil and a mix of Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn for the (B) stencil. I also splattered white ink all over the background to give it a snow-like look and to bring in the white from the bead colors.

Then I trimmed the background down to 4-⅛ x 5-⅜” (just slightly smaller than A2) and attached it to a cards base. I cut the Winter Hat Shaker Dies and Large Joy Shadow Dies from dark pink, green and white cardstock to decorate the card. I added the Berry Bright Shaker Beads with acetate to make the Winter Hat a shaker! For some final touches, I added a few Strawberry Shimmer Mix confetti to the card.

Under the Glass Dome with a Cute Sea Creature using Popsiclesticks

For this card, I created an interactive arched box card using products from Popsiclesticks and built a full underwater scene inside a glass dome style structure. I started by stamping and coloring my cute sea creature images with alcohol markers, then restamped them with a clear dark ink to sharpen the outlines before cutting them out. For the background, I ink blended multiple blue and teal Distress Oxide colors onto white cardstock to create an ocean look, adding water splatter, shimmer spritz, dark ink splatter, and white paint for texture. Once everything was fully dry, I die cut the background to fit the arched box card pieces.

Next, I assembled the box card using cardstock die cuts for the base, sides, and inner steps, trimming and layering details so the dome base wrapped fully around the card. I used a wave border die on the inner steps to give movement to the water and layered the background inside the card before closing it up. I added rocks, bubbles, shells, and my sea creature images with liquid adhesive, placing them throughout the scene for depth. To finish the card, I added a custom die cut sentiment to the front, stamped a coordinating sentiment on the back, and added small white highlights to the character for extra charm. The result is a dimensional ocean scene that feels playful, detailed, and perfect for a fandom inspired card.

A Window Into the Winter Ball with Kindred Stamps

I started this card by stamping the three main characters from the Day 24 Yule stamp set using InkOn3 Blackout Ink, then coloring them with my Olo markers. Once they were fully colored, I fussy cut each image and set them aside. For the background, I die cut the Holiday Hall craft dies, cutting the lattice window from Kraft cardstock and the window panels from Madero Beach cardstock. I layered those pieces onto a piece of pattern paper from the Magical Escape paper pad that feels like a festive winter ball scene, then carefully trimmed around the die cut so it looked like you were peeking through a grand hall window into the celebration.

Next, I die cut a rectangle from the Card Basics die set out of Madero Beach cardstock and glued my window scene to the center before adhering everything to a top folding A2 card base. I popped up the three characters along the bottom of the scene with one millimeter foam adhesive to bring them forward. I die cut a banner from the Sentiment Strip dies, stamped the sentiment “Deck the Great Hall” with Nocturne Versafine Clair ink, and popped that up at the top of the card. To finish the front, I die cut the candles from the Holiday Hall craft dies out of white card stock, colored them with Olo markers, assembled the layers, and popped them up for extra dimension. Inside the card, I stamped the sentiment “Yule be in my heart this holiday season” using the same Nocturne ink to tie everything together.

Chocolate Cake Gift Card Holder with Emily Moore Designs

I had so much fun creating this cake shaped gift card holder using new products from Emily Moore Designs, and I love how playful and interactive it turned out. I started by ink blending a piece of white card stock with Vintage Photo, Walnut Stain, and Ground Espresso distress oxides to create a rich chocolate frosting look. I added splatter with Ground Espresso distress ink, water splatter, Tea Dye distress oxide spray, and finished it off with Vintage Photo distress spritz for a shimmery shine. Once dry, I die cut all of the frosting pieces from this background using the Make a Cake Gift Card Holder die set, and I die cut the cake layers from Madero Beach speckled tone card stock so it would look like vanilla cake under chocolate frosting.

I assembled the cake layers with liquid adhesive, carefully avoiding the gift card slots, and then layered on all of the frosting pieces and decorative dollops. I die cut a backing piece from the same Madero Beach card stock and glued it to the back for a clean finish. For the sentiment, I used the Short and Sweet Happy Birthday dies, cutting Happy from white card stock and Birthday from the chocolate frosting background. I turned the Birthday word into a sticker using adhesive sheets to make placement easier, layered the words onto the back, and added Snowflake Glitter Pops of Color to the frosting swirls for extra sparkle. The end result is a fun, dimensional gift card holder that feels like a little celebration all on its own.

Rooted in Kindness Card

I started this card by die cutting the greenhouse pattern paper from the Magical Escape paper pack using the rectangle die from the Kindred Stamps Card Basics Die Set. I glued that panel to the front of a white top folding A2 card base. Next, I stamped the image from the Day 21 Roots stamp set in a brown alcohol marker friendly ink and stamped it twice, leaving the stamp in my MISTI. I colored both images with OLO markers, then restamped them in the MISTI using Weeping Willow Stellar Ink to add a soft brown outline before carefully fussy cutting them out.

To build the treat cart, I die cut the pieces from the Advent Calendar treat cart dies using kraft cardstock and cut the wheels from black cardstock. I inked the edges of all the die cut pieces with Weeping Willow Stellar Ink for a little extra depth, then assembled the cart. I stamped the sentiment I’m rooting for you from the Roots stamp set onto the top section of the cart and glued it in place, then popping up the cart to the card with 1mm foam adhesive. Finally, I added one stamped image to each level of the cart so it feels like a rolling display of potted plants, which finishes off this sweet and plant loving card.

Striped Ornament Gift Tag with Trinity Stamps

For this tag I started by choosing three shades of pink and three shades of teal cardstock and cutting them into 1/4 x 8-1/2" strips, with two strips of each color. I trimmed a Trinity Rip & Stick sheet so it would fit two ornament shapes from the Trinity Stamps Emergency Card Essentials Die Set 2. Onto the sticky side of the ribbon sheet, I added the cardstock strips in a repeating pattern, moving from the darkest teal to the lightest teal, then from the lightest pink into the darkest pink. I continued adding strips until the sheet was covered, trimming off any excess and filling in gaps with the leftover pieces.

Once the Rip & Stick sheet was fully covered, I die cut two ornament shapes from the striped cardstock. I peeled away the backing from the second side of the ribbon stick and pressed the two ornament shapes together so the striped pattern showed on both sides. I die cut the ornament tops from silver cardstock and cut them twice, then glued one to each side at the top to connect everything together. To finish the tag, I tied a piece of twine from my stash through the top so it can be used as a gift tag now and later hung on the tree as an ornament. This project was created for Trinity Stamps 12 Days of Christmas Tags and I love how colorful and versatile it turned out.
