Pretty Pink Posh – September Release Blog Hop Day 3

Card tutorial 2 Minutes

Hi there! I’m so excited to be joining the Pretty Pink Posh September Release Hop for day 3. If you missed the first 2 days, be sure to head to the PPP hop and catch up on all that inspiration and increase your chances of winning one of those $30 gift cards too!

Today I have a fun shaker card to share with you featuring the new Pumpkin Shaker dies and last year’s Grateful Script die for a beautiful sentiment.

I started by trimming a piece of kraft cardstock to 4×5.25 inches and then used the part of the pumpkin shaker die set that just cuts the windows. I inked the edges of the panel with gathered twigs distress oxide ink and splattered it with ground espresso. I cut the leaf and stem from green cardstock and inked them with rustic wilderness ink for dimension, then glued them to the kraft panel, popping up the leaf over the stem. Next, I lined the back of my panel with acetate and then foam tape, avoiding my shaker window.

I took a piece of white cardstock smaller than my kraft panel and inked it with ripe persimmon and spiced marmalade distress oxide ink. I splattered it with water and blotted it dry. Then I sprinkled some matte gold and espresso confetti bits on the panel and sealed them up with the pumpkin window panel.

I used liquid glue to adhere my shaker panel to white card base. Then, I pulled out the grateful script die that released last year and cut it out with Spellbinders peach die cutting glitter foam. I adhered this with liquid glue as well.

Then my card is all finished. I love how it turned out. Elegant and pretty, perfect for fall.

  22. Hi Amanda. I love your shaker card. The scripty Grateful die gives your card an elegant feeling. I like the Kraft cardstock and how you sprinkled it to get a unique effect. It makes me think of a gourd’s rind, which fits in perfectly with the pumpkin theme. I look forward to seeing what you design next.
