Poshta Design: Sunflower Die

August 22, 2025

Morning everyone. I’m back with a card using the new Poshta Design Sunflower Die. Ooohhh this die is one of my favorites. Beautiful, smiling sunflowers are a dependable source of joy in the early Autumn. The Sunflower Season Die features a large layered bloom and trio of leaves. Add the sunflower to wreaths, garlands, and other decor items to bring a cheerful touch of the outdoors into your home.This die comes with a Stitching Guide to show you how this design comes together. Measurement reference:

The sunflower bloom measures 3” in diameter. The fully assembled sunflower with leaves measures 3 ⅝” wide by 3” tall.

Retails for $30 (4 pieces)

Heritage Harvest Color Story (retails for $55)

This classic sunflower is absolutely beautiful and easy to stitch. It’s perfect for all your fall cards and decor. I used the felt, thread, sequins and beads from the Heritage Harvest Colory Story for my sunflower.

Poshta Design Sunflower Die

Stitching this flower was simple and straight forward. You will notice I do have two shades of yellow. One shade is from the felt color story and the other was a roll I previously had on hand. By combining these two shades it really makes my flower come to life.

As I am a cardmaking, this sunflower fit perfectly on a A2 (4 1/4 by 5 1/2) card. To keep the fall looking going, I paired the sunflower with gingham pattern paper and a simple sentiment.

The August 2025 Poshta Design release will be available tomorrow August 23 NOON EST. You will love stitching your way into fall and halloween with these easy stitching projects. Remember they all come with a stitching guide to help you along the way.

Thanks for stopping by to check out the Poshta Design Sunflower die. Make sure to add it to your cart before they are all gone. Happy stitching everyone. See you back here soon.

Poshta Design Cobweb Coverall Die

August 21, 2025

Welcome back to the blog for the Poshta Design Cobweb Coverall Die. The Cobweb Coverall Die cuts a spider web background sized for an A2 card front (the die doesn’t have an outer cutting edge though, so you have some flexibility if you would like to try other card sizes or techniques). This classic Halloween pattern adds texture and interest to your cards, making even the simplest creation feel spook-tacular!

The Cobweb Coverall Die includes a Stitching Guide for handy reference. Measurement reference:

The patterned area measures 4” wide by 5 ¼” tall.

Retails for $24 (1 piece)

Costume Party Color Story (retails for $55)

I know there are a lot of people who truly enjoy Halloween. For me it’s just okay. LOL What I love most about the day is giving out candy to the sweet kids and checking out their costumes. Let’s just say I prefer a fun halloween over a spooky one. So this Cobweb Coverall die was perfect for a not so scary halloween card.

Poshta Design Cobweb Coverall Die

I started off by diecutting the cobweb using the Costume Party Color Story. This pack has five great felt rolls along with matching DMC floss and a container full of sparkle with beads and sequin. So much fun to add the beads and sequin to your projects.

By stitching the cobweb in black I was able to achieve a very high contrast card. And by adding in just a few of the beads and sequins the cards is more glam than scary. Once my stitching was done, I trimmed it out in a fun shape and placed it onto a black card base.

The sentiment for the card was computer generated and die cut out with a circle die. I truly enjoyed playing with the Poshta Design Cobwebb Coverall die. There are a few more dies being released today as well.

Okay we have one more day for sneak peeks before release on Saturday, August 23 at NOON EST. See you back here tomorrow.

Poshta Design: Let’s Play: Cheer

August 20, 2025

Hello everyone. I’m here with the new Poshta Design Let’s Play Cheer die. The release of the Let’s Play dies are so much fun. For my card, I used the Cheer die and man this was such a joy to stitch.

Cheer on your favorite cheerleader with the Let’s Play: Cheer Die! Create home decor, holiday ornaments, and more. You can even personalize your projects with our Monogram Alphabet and Monogram Numerals dies for creations that are truly unique and special. Pair this die with the rest of the Let’s Play Collection for multi-sport projects with pizzazz! Included with this die is a Stitching Guide for handy reference. Measurement reference:

The fully assembled megaphone measures 3 ½” wide by 2” tall.

Retails for $17 (3 pieces)

This set has three dies in total. One for the cheer layer and two for the megaphone. It’s very easy to line things up to create this fun megaphone. And what better way to give a card than to add some felt stitching to it.

Poshta Design Let's Play Cheer Die

I am a HUGE NY Giants fan and I’m always cheering them on for each game (even when they lose). And with football season starting in just a few weeks, I thought I could send this card to my friend Pam who is also a NY Giants fan.

The felt colors I used for this card were Tundra and Cardinal. For the stitching I used DMC floss 796 and 3865. You can totally customize a card with your favorite football time as well. Did I mention, there is a football die in this release as well. Sooo good!

I hope you will grab the Poshta Design Let’s Play Cheer die to have in your stitching die collection. Also if you want to see more stitching on the blog you can click here. Make sure to stop back by tomorrow as I’ll have more stitching to share with you. Make sure to swing by the Poshta Design blog as well for more information on the release. See you back here tomorrow.

Poshta Design Holiday 2022 Release Reveal

September 30, 2022

Welcome back everyone. Today is reveal day for the Poshta Design Holiday 2022 Release. I’m thrilled to be stitching with the All Bundled Up Kit. When the weather outside gets frightful, it’s time to start creating something delightful! This year’s stitching kit features a toasty warm stocking cap and oodles of design elements to personalize it. Classic cable knit? Chic Nordic snowflakes? A customizable label? That’s just scratching the surface. You’ll have so many options that no two caps will look the same! From 100% wool felt to a carefully curated collection of beads and sequins, everything* you need to make beautiful ornaments arrives right to your door in one convenient package. The hardest part is choosing your favorite Color Story!

This kit even includes needles, cord for hanging, and a zippered project bag so you can keep your works-in-progress safe and tidy. You’ll be stitching up cozy holiday creations in no time!

Kit Contents Include:

  • 27-piece die set

  • zippered project bag

  • 2 all-purpose needles

  • handy needle storage tube

  • printed 3-page Inspiration Guide for easy reference

  • exclusive access to an intensive instruction video (access will be included inside your kit bag)

  • 5 yards of white crochet thread

  • 5 rolls of 5″ x 36″ felt

  • 5 skeins of embroidery floss

  • 5 colors of sequins (in two sizes)

  • 5 colors of seed beads

  • compartmented bead storage container

*die cut machine and stuffing not included in the kit*

Retails for $150.

I also made some projects using the new All Bundled Up Mitten Die, the All Bundled Up Stocking Die and the Simple Scalloped Circle Ornament Die. Let’s take look at what I created.

My first project is using the All Bundled Up Kit. This kit was so much fun to play with. I love being able to customize my ornaments using the felt, dies, floss and seed beads. Each time you make an ornament, you are creating from the heart in a style that’s all your own.

My next project is using the All Bundled Up Stocking Die. What’s so great about these All Bundled Up dies, you can mix and match them with each other. Instead of making my stocking an ornament, I turned it into a gift card holder. Using three of the colors from the Ski Lodge Color Story really allowed me to have fun with this stocking.

Poshta Design

For my last projects, I pulled out all the stops. I turned the All Bundled Up Mitten and the Simple Scalloped Circle Ornament into holiday coasters. These coasters are just too cute and were SUPER easy to make. Thinking of gift giving these coasters, it was best to keep to a simple color palette for the coasters so they could match.

Now it’s your chance to grab these kits. They are going live in the Poshta Design shop on Saturday October 1st 12:00PM EST. Also don’t forget you can grab yourself any one of the Color Stories to really get creative.
