Pretty Pink Posh Spring 2021 New Release - Easter Cards!

Hi crafty pals! Happy Friday! It's been a SUPER busy week around here! Whew! Four blog posts in five days! LOTS of good things happening, that's for dang sure. Easter is everywhere and I love it. Easter is my favorite holiday, and all the companies hit it out of the park this year with their Spring/Easter new releases. I am so happy and blessed to be able to share all of these things with you! I've been having so much fun creating. I hope you had a good week and I'm sending you good wishes for an amazing weekend. Thanks for stopping by all week, and thank you for all the support!

There are certain crafty things I look forward to every year.... And one of them is the annual Easter release from Pretty Pink Posh! I feel like Paulina gets it right every time. The perfect mix of fun and cute, and also classy and elegant. Something for every style. Today PPP is doing an Instagram Hop that I'm part of! Click over to Instagram and leave comments there for a chance at some prizes! I also wanted to share my cards here on my blog too! I have two cards to show you today. All the new products are now available, and the supply list is at the bottom of my post. 

First up is this absolutely cheerful Easter basket full of eggs and adorable bun buns!! I used the new Easter Basket Die (LOVE) along with the new Easter Bunnies Stamp Set. The finished card is an A2 white card base. I layered blue paper and then gingham and then that beautiful Scallop Frame.

 

Here's a side view to show all the layers - lots of foam tape! You know me! LOL.

 

These little animals are so sweet! I stamped and die cut out the bunnies, bird, eggs, and carrots and colored them with Copic Markers. I added white gel pen accents to all the elements, and a few sparkly enamel dots.

 

Here's a photo of just the Easter Basket Die. It comes in three pieces - the basket, the separate rim/edge piece, and the scalloped grass piece. I die cut it from kraft cardstock and inked the edges with Distress Ink. I also splattered on some white paint. It's the perfect size!!

 

These are the Copic colors I used for the bunnies. (Sorry the photo is a little blurry due to late night crafting!!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just love this little guy hanging over the edge!! I stamped the sentiment onto a vellum strip so it would show up better. I knew I wanted to place it behind the basket handle, but I didn't want another piece of white paper on the card. Vellum worked out great!

 

My second card for today features the brand new Floral Corners stamps and dies. SO elegant and pretty!! This finished card is an A2 size made from pretty teal cardstock. My top layer and all the other pieces of paper, are watercolor paper. I used gold embossing and my favorite water color palette. Classic Easter florals I think! I took a chance with that teal card base - something a bit different. 

 

 

This photo shows a close up of the floral spray. I colored everything with water color paints. I splashed on a good amount of shimmer pearl paint on top of my watercoloring after it was dry. I love that deep rose pink color. 

 

 

 

The sentiment was die cut from watercolor paper also. I used the same color as the flowers and created an ombre effect with the words. I splashed some shimmer paint on the word dies as well. 

 

I die cut the top layer from the same watercolor paper using a stitched rectangle die. I splattered some gold paint onto the background panel to pick up the gold embossing feel. I added a few enamel dots here and there to finish off the card. 

 

And here's a photo of my photo area! I did some photographs for a client and was cleaning up and saw this pretty grouping of items left over! The daffodils are from our front yard. We had about 200 of them this year!! They are starting to wind down and the tulips are popping up. I'm very grateful to have a husband with an amazing green thumb. I can barely keep one plant alive inside the house!

I'm in love with your Bunny card and just ordered the basket,bunny stamp and frame through your site. I have my Easter cards done, surprisingly early, so this will be next years unless you come up with another cutie by then and I'm sure you will...
Baskets and Bunnies can be used for Welcome Spring cards too !! Thanks, Wanda

The bunnies are the cutest... love the size of the basket too. I just adore that new corner stamp. Your colors are so wonderful and of course springlike. Those pictured daffodils make me so jealous too. Calling for maybe rain/snow mix next week, yuck! Have a great weekend
