Spring 2021 New Release Sneak Peek Wrap Up

Spring 2021 New Release – Sneak Peek Wrap up – Reveal & Inspirational Chapter Begins Tomorrow!

Spring 2021 New Release Schedule

Hi Crafty Friends! I’m super excited to announce that our Spring 2021 New Release – Reveal & Inspirational Chapter starts TOMORROW right here at the blog with our Giveaway Post! Make sure you come back tomorrow for a chance to win! New products will also be AVAILABLE for Pre-Order starting TOMORROW at www.ppstamps.com! YAYYY!!!!! Find out tomorrow on how you can receive a special FREE GIFT !

Below is a quick look at some of the amazing projects you are going to see from our Creative Team this week!

For today’s Sneak Peek Wrap Up, I created a card using another one of our new 360° stencils, Kaleidoscope!

I used a turning interval of 60° to achieve this design. I chose a combination of Distress Oxide inks including Shaded Lilac, Twisted Citron, Mermaid Lagoon, Pumice Stone, Spun Sugar and Tattered Rose.

I took an image from the Heartfelt Notes stamp set “You are Amazing”, and silver heat embossed it directly onto my background. Then I added a pink butterfly and its shadow die as the final touches.

I kept today’s card very simple; however, there are many other variations that this stencil can offer, and I will be showing you more on the coming week!

I hope you enjoyed today’s inspiration. Be sure to visit our blog this week (22 Mar to 27 Mar) for more fun and awesome projects from our talented Creative Team and myself.

Starting tomorrow we will be showcasing all of our new products including 5 new stamp sets & coordinating dies, 6 stand-alone dies, 2 Dies + Stencils sets, 4 new 360° stencils, and a new collection of cardstocks! We will have our Giveaway Post tomorrow right here on this blog AND on Instagram, so stay tuned for instructions on how to win some goodies!

This release is going to be very special so don’t miss out! Have a lovely day!

Spring 2021 Sneak Peek - Day 5

Spring 2021 New Release – Sneak Peek Day 5

Spring 2021 New Release Schedule

Hi crafty friends! It’s already Day 5 of Sneak Peeks! I love geometric patterns. For today, I made a clean and simple card with a rainbow hue geometric background.

To make this stenciled background, I used the new Hearts Bouquet Stencil 360°TM with our Stencils 360°TM tool. You’ll be amazed on how easy it is to create this overlay of hearts in rainbow hues! While inking, I made references to the “15° intervals” scale on the Base of the tool, basically jumping from Square to Square!

I had a total of 8 colors that I wanted to used and these colors repeat themselves twice in this pattern. To avoid having to clean my stencil on every 15° turn before changing ink color, I inked up all 3 of the same colored hearts, clean my stencil, and moved on to my next color.

To give some border detail to the card, I used the largest dies from Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangles Overlays and the Dots Meet Dashes Small Rectangles Overlays to cut out a frame with our new Pumpkin Field cardstock. Then I added an image and sentiment from our new stamp set, Aloha Hawaii. I thought this image really goes well with the burst of colors in the background!

Here’s a short video on how I made this card. You can watch it below or over on our YouTube Channel.

This card is super fun and easy to make, I hope you’ll try it out! Be sure to come back tomorrow for our Sneak Peeks wrap up! Reveal & Inspiration Chapter + Giveaways starts next Monday. And get ready to Pre-Order period which starts next Monday as well! Stay tuned for the reveal of the Free Gift with purchases 80CAD+ (or ~65USD+)!

Happy crafting everyone!

Spring 2021 New Release - Slimline Pull Tab card

Spring 2021 New Release – Sneak Peek Day 4

Spring 2021 New Release Schedule

Hi crafty friends! I’m really excited about today’s Sneak Peeks because today’s card is made with some of my favourite products in this release! As I promised, you’ll see brand new clear stamps that have the “Around the World” theme, and today’s stamp set is themed around….Egypt! Isn’t that the coolest?!

I made this slimline pull tab interactive card using a new stand-alone die set from our release. This set has four different lengths of slit die cuts which you can choose to cut out tracks to form your moving mechanism. Here I wanted the camel to stroll along the desert! This set also includes two slimline rectangle stackables with simple dotted borders that is ideal for all different types of greeting cards!

See the desert landscape and the three dimensional sand dunes background? This was created using the Desert Scene Builder Dies + Stencil (2 in 1) set. This new set gives you the tools for making beautiful and unique landscapes, especially on slimline cards. Stay tuned for our step-by-step tutorial over on our YouTube Channel.

I’d love to know what you think about this card. Leave me a message down below. Be sure to come back tomorrow for more!

Happy crafting everyone!

Spring 2021 New Release – Sneak Peek Day 1

Sharon Y.4 Comments

Hello everyone! It’s Sharon here from Penguin Palace! I’m super excited to announce that our Spring 2021 New Release is just around the corner!  We have something fun for EVERYONE in this release! New products range from cute and adorable stamps, to refreshing stand-alone dies, to new additions to our exclusive collection of circular stencils which some of you have been enjoy playing with! If you haven’t got your hands on our Stencils 360° tool yet, now’s the time!

The theme of our new stamp sets in this release is “Around the World”! We are starting this whole new collection that will take you to different destinations around the globe!

For today’s Sneak Peek, I made a wide shadow box card using a few of our new products. If you look closely, you’ll notice that this stamp set is themed around Canada (where we’re from)! These cute images are from a set named Bond With Nature – Canada.

To house these adorable images, I took the Cinematic Shadow Box die. This new stand-alone die set forms a card that measures 6 1/2″ wide x 3 3 /4″ tall by 2″ in depth, and you can include as much as 4 layers of insert tabs!

With this wide space, you can create much bigger 3-dimensional scenes than before! The best thing is that it lays flat for mailing and fits into a slimline envelope!

Do you see the stitched rocky mountains at the back of the card? These were created using the Mountain Landscape Scene Builder Dies + Stencil set! This new 2 in 1 set allows you to easily create beautiful landscapes. I’ll explain much more about this set during our Reveal & Inspiration Chapter, so stay tuned!

The blue pallete cardstocks in this card are also from our new release. These are all 100 lb. heavyweight cardstock, and are just a few among the new and refreshing colors that we’ll be launching next week!

I hope you enjoy today’s sneak peek. Stick around as Sneak Peeks continue to the 21st Mar, followed by our Reveal & Inspiration Chapter + Giveaways which starts on 22nd Mar (next Monday)!  We’ll have beautiful and inspiring sample projects from our talented Creative Team + prizes to win! So don’t go anywhere!

Thanks for dropping by, have a wonderful day!
