Hey friends! Today I’m excited to be sharing my first card project of 2019 on behalf of Pretty Pink Posh and their 5th birthday celebration!
There are some darling new releases out and I have two card projects to share, and one video tutorial covering this card project:
You can’t go wrong with a simple monochromatic scheme, and a little bit of emboss resist! I adore this little set and created my own patterned panel with a little math and my MISTI tool. Check out my video here:
For my second card project, I used the brand new Cupcake Critters stamps and dies to create a simple birthday care featuring a bit of Copic coloring.
I still keep my coloring really simple but I really love the simple blended bit of Spun Sugar behind my bear’s head. So sweet and simple.

Those are the two most darling cards I have seen so far this season. I am not a “pink” girl, but you have persuaded me to grab my pinks again. Those colors are delicious! Thank you for the inspiration.
Wow, so clever! I love both cards, but the first one is my favourite for sure – thinking outside the box (or should I say – inside the heart, LOL) – I like it!
Such a lovely hearts card in pink! Simple yet beautiful design 🙂 And the bear is super super sweet and adorable 🙂 Love it!! <3
Cathy, these are great cards. The second one is a fun celebration of this event–the first one is simply lovely in its design and coloring. Thanks for sharing both.
Thanks for reminding me to use white embossing powder. It looks great!!
The polar bear is so cute. I wouldn’t have thought to make a bear white. Nice job.
I love white embossing! Your heart card is so very pretty. But the bear … he stole my heart! LOVE everything about that sweet card.
How beautiful these Cards are. I may have to borrow your design on the pink one. Thanks for sharing what you do. It’s always wonderful and usually just my style.
Cathy, your valentine’s Day cards are sweet and heartwarming! Adorable!
There is NOTHING wrong with monochromatic, as long as it’s done right, and this is definitely done right. Thanks for the inapiration.
Your background paper is stunning! The so cute is so cute!

Such cute cards!
I loved your card and thought that it was just beautiful. Thanks for sharing with us!
I love the pink background behind your cute lil bear.
Love these cards and your style! Cute, but not super cutesy; elegant but not overly formal.

Lovely cards!
Both cards are so pretty. I love the embossed background and ombre colors. Stunning elegant card. The bear is just too cute. I love critters.
I am so excited to see someone say “I used a little math!” I love the cards and as a math teacher I’m always super happy when someone admits they use math somehow in real life. As an aside, your coloring gives me hope that mine can improve, too:)
Your first card is gorgeous, and you second card is so cute! Love them both!
I love the bear card. Thanks for sharing!

This is a nice card. Admire the pink and white combination used for this. Beautiful ink blending.

Pretty and sweet. I like the emboss resist on the first one.

Really Fantastic cards Cathy!!
Your heart card is nice but those cupcake critters have stolen my heart. They are so adorable and fun.
Beautiful card designs! Lovely and creative inspiration.
Hi Cathy. Gorgeous card – love the little heart stamp set with the co-ordinating dies. I also really love how you present your tutorials and all the little tips you give along the way – they are always so helpful. Love (yep, lots of love happening here) Pretty Pink Posh products, particularly the stamps, as they always give a beautifully crisp impression – I have some other stamp sets and really love them. This release is so sweet – need to have it! Thanks for sharing.
Cathy,
I love both cards. The little critter is so cute. But, I have to say, the heart card is just so very elegant. I need that set. It is just beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Two sweet cards. Thanks for the tips.
Love your cards!!! You’ve brought some of my favorite things —hearts, flowers, the color pink, and a bear — together to make fabulous cards to celebrate Pretty Pink Posh’s new release and birthday!!
Both cards are adorable, lovely choice of colors.
Adorable cards! Love love love!
Two different styles and they’re both fab. Love the simple palette on the hearts card. Thanks for sharing this inspiration with these fun products.
Love your cards. I love the heart card. What neat ideas.
Love the soft background around the bear!
Very sweet and charming cards! I love the heart pattern and the monochromatic look of your first card. The pinks are perfect for Valentine’s Day.
PRETTY
I love that soft coloring you did behind the white bear. I want to learn to do that and make it looks so gentle
These are both super-duper sweet! LOVE that floral heart!!
I love both of your cards but I have a soft spot for cute critters so the bear one really makes me happy.
Both cards are simple, but highly effective and creative. They both carry to a recipient, sweet and heartfelt feelings.
Two fabulous cards!! I love just the bit of ink blended behind the bear; it really makes him pop!
I totally love both your cards… the first Be Mine card is such a unique way to use the Heart stamp and die. Bravo!
Your cards are super delicate! Stunning creations!
You are my CAS guru! I love seeing how you made that background in the first one, because I usually get lost in the small details, so it was really nice to see what you did to give it interest without it turning into too much. And those cupcake critters are just so cute. Thanks for sharing with us!
Your pink card is to die for! So romantic and beautiful! Cute bear card too. Love the script sentiment!!
