I adhered them onto an oval die cut, that lightly ink blended with blue ink.
I adhered onto some pattern paper and used a kraft colored card base.

Joy To World Shaker Card featuring Pretty Pink Posh

Hello crafty friends!
I have a fun shaker card to share with you today featuring some of the lovely new products from Pretty Pink Posh.




I started with a white piece of card stock that I cut using the Stitched Notes die, using the inside piece. I used the new Joy shaker die and cut it out of the white card stock to simply create the circle for my shaker element. I used acetate and fun foam to create my dimension and filled my shaker piece with Sparkling Clear Snowflakes and the Starry Night sequin mix, once my shaker element was created I then cut the Joy die once again using gray card stock and adhered it directly over the acetate. I then adhered my panel onto a gray card base.
I cut a thin piece of glitter card stock and die cut the small bow from the Twine and Bows die to make my shaker element look like an ornament.
I stamped the 'to the world' sentiment onto blue card stock from the Holiday Greetings stamp set and cut it into a small banner shape to give the card a finishing touch.

Supplies:

 Stitched Notes die
Joy shaker die
Sparkling Clear Snowflakes
Starry Night sequin mix
Twine and Bows die
Holiday Greetings
Smoke Gray card stock from Simon Says Stamp

Sequin Heart Card featuring Pretty Pink Posh

Hello!
Hope your having a lovely day so far!
Stopping in quickly to share a quick card featuring the very fun new Sparkle Dot 1 Patterns stamp set from Pretty Pink Posh.
This stamp set was created to use with sequins and make fun sequin shapes but I've seen it used with Nuvo drops as well and looks amazing!




Ok so I started with a white piece of card stock and cut the sides using the Scallop Borders die and adhered onto a smoke gray card base from SSS.
I stamped the heart pattern into the middle and used the Friendship sequin mix to create the heart. I went back and forth between the 4mm and 6mm sequins, which ever fit best, and adhered down with zots bling mini glue dots.
I cut and adhered the twine and bows in the center and stamped my sentiment from the Everyday Greetings stamp set.
That finishes off my quick and simple card today, the sequin heart gives big impact so it looks awesome against a simple card.
That;s all for me today!
Thank you SO much for stopping in!!

Pretty Pink Posh November Release Blog Hop

Hi there!
So very happy to be joining you today for the Pretty Pink Posh November release blog hop.
All the new products are amazing and I had so much fun creating with them!
You should have arrived from Lisa Elton's blog, but if you happen to be starting here I will have a full list of the hop at the end of this post.

I have two creations to share with you today!
I started with a white card base and although its hard to see I used the Merry Christmas die and some of the festive holly leaves dies to emboss the background with. Rather than using a cutting plate in your die cutting machine you would use a rubber mat and it will emboss instead of cut!
I then created shaker elements out of the open leaves from the festive holly dies and filled with the 4mm Vintage Christmas mix. I adhered my elements onto my card and die cute my sentiment from dark red card stock and adhered onto my card.




For my second creation I used the very adorable Winter Woodland stamp set along with coordinating dies, Sparkling Clear Snowflakes and the Starry Night Sequin mix. I started with a fog piece of card stock that I cut slightly smaller than an A2 size card. I used the Scallop Circle to make the circle opening to create my shaker piece. I used the Scallop Circle die cut again with a piece of white card stock so I can adhere the scallop frame on top of my acetate. I loaded my shaker element with Sparkling Clear Snowflakes, Starry Night mix, Snowflake Sequin Mix and the Silver Star Confetti.


I stamped my images on watercolor paper and colored in with Zig real brush markers and cut out using the coordinating dies, and adhered over my shaker piece, I stamped some of the snow onto the background and stamped my sentiment onto the bottom.
I adhered my main panel onto a light blue card base.




That finishes my creations today! I hope you enjoyed!
Next on the blog hop is Cathy Zielske.
Be sure to leave comments along the way as there are 2 $25 gift certificates up for grabs.
Comments must be left by 11:59PM PST November 7/2017 and winners will be announced on the Pretty Pink Posh blog.

CAS Happy Turkey Day

Hi Crafty Friends!
Stopping in to share an autumn/ Thanksgiving card.
Its a fairly clean and simple card but I love white backgrounds with some sort of interest to it with color on top!

Starting with my background, I used an A2 sized white card base and I used the Stitched Foliage dies to completely cover the background. I used white card stock and cut the die cuts multiple times and adhered them in place onto my background.


I kept one pumpkin die cut aside and stamped my sentiment from the Happy Turkey stamp set with Versamark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. I stamped the leaves from the set on white card stock with the same process, and cut out using the coordinating dies. I ink blended some Distress ink over top until I liked the colors of the images and adhered them unto my card!
I added some bakers twine to the top and that finished my card!
Thank you so much for stopping by!
Hope you have a lovely day!

Vellum Shaker card featuring Angel Friends from PPP

 Hello!
I'm stopping in to share a vellum shaker card with you today featuring the very sweet Angel Friends stamp set and coordinating dies from Pretty Pink Posh.
I love these sweet angels so much and they were fun to color!

I created a shaker card with vellum instead of acetate which is the exact same process as a normal shaker card but I wanted a softer look.
For my background behind my shaker i stamped some trees from the Holiday Pals stamp set and used the new Marshmallow Confetti Mix and Metallic Silver Confetti Mix  for my shaker elements. I used the Stitches Notes frame die for the frame to my card and adhered the vellum on the inside.
For my 'snow hills' I used 2 dies from the Scallop Borders Die.
I stamped my trees from the Holiday Pals stamp set and my Angels on separate white card stock colored in with Copic markers and cut out using the coordinating dies.



I adhered them all on top on my card, added some white gel pen on my trees and some Wink of Stella glitter pen under the trees and angels on the snow to finish off my card.
That finishes my shaker card for today!
Thank you for dropping in!

Stitched Foliage Fall Cards featuring PPP

Hello!!
Hope your all having a lovely day so far!
I have a couple of fall cards to with you today featuring some of the new products from the recent release from Pretty Pink Posh.
My cards are generally the same, just with different colors. I used the new Stitched Foliage dies and the sentiments are from the Giving Thanks stamp set from last year.

I cut my leaves and pumpkin from white cardstock and ink blended Distress ink on each. I adhered them in 2 clusters and circled some twine thread behind them and adhered some fun foam behind them for dimension before adhering onto my cards.




I used white cardstock as my base and white heat embossed my sentiment onto fog card stock and used Metallic Gold confetti mix to finish off this card.


For this card I used a Fog card base and stamped my sentiment with black ink onto white card stock and finished off with Metallic Silver confetti mix.



That's it for my cards today!
Thank you so much for stopping by.
