Hellllloooooooo! How is your week going? I hope you’re doing great and having a beautiful week my friends. I have something fun and joyful to share with you today. BUGS! Hee hee. Yes, bugs and bees can be absolutely adorable in my book! Pretty Pink Posh just launched their cute new May 2026 release. It’s really really fun and I had a big smile on my face making all these cards to share. I used TONS of color and ink blending and glitter, and all the good crafty things. I hope to make you smile too! This post has three cards and lots of photos!

First up is this sweet beehive card! I think it’s my favorite one I made for the new release. So many bright and happy colors and the sweetest little bee! This card has TONS of new products on it! My finished card is an A2 card base, layered with honey yellow gingham and then an ink blended panel. This card features the new Stitched Bugs, Beehive Shaker, Everyday Branches, and Rounded Rectangles… It’s all good!
I started by ink blending my background panel and setting it aside to dry. Then I die cut all the pieces of my hive, the branch, leaves, flowers and bee…. I ink blended the hive using lots of distress inks (colors are linked in the supplies) and also Copics. I used a white gel pen to accent the pieces. The sentiment is from a new banner set!
I used glitter for his wittle wings! And I added a hot pink heart to him… Isn’t this the cutest thing ever??

I used Copic Markers to color in the beehive, the bees and the flowers… I added bits of glitter to their wings and to the beehive. It’s so pretty in person! I ink blended the top of the hexagon shape for a bit of depth to the card. I haven’t used my Copics in a while and it was super fun to sit and color! Yay! For the side panel, I used several colors of distress inks and the new stencil to make a large panel. Then I just trimmed it to fit the side of the card. I tried using the whole panel, but I thought it was too busy. This panel was just enough!
My final card for today features a big giant snail! Yes, a cute snail! Ha! This card features the brand new Snail Shaker dies! My finished card is an A2 card base, layered with gingham and then a white panel made with the Pinking Rectangles. I chose an all blue, green and teal color palette for this one to mimic a garden! To ground all that color I chose to use accents of kraft. I die cut out all my pieces and splattered some of them. I did not do any ink shading on this card… I used the mushrooms from previous die sets and they go perfectly! (also linked in my supplies list)
