Hi everyone!  I’m so honored to be back on the SSS blog today featuring some amazing products from Pretty Pink Posh.  Since Paulina started her company with sequins, I thought what better to share than a shaker card using my favorite PPP sequins.

The holidays are right around the corner so this card will be perfect to send out!  I’ve used a must have stencil called Falling Snow from SSS to add some texture to my note card using embossing paste and glitter.  I also carried this over to my shaker element adding the same design over a blended Salty Ocean die cut tag from Stitched Duo 1 Dies.  I created a window effect by die-cutting another tag and using the other die from the Stitched Duo 1 Dies to create the windows.  Adding foam adhesive to my window and Sparkling Clear Sequins from PPP to the inside, I added the blended tag as a “backer” which makes creating a shaker so much easier!  Now my main element is complete for my card!

I stamped, colored, and die cut my bunny, presents, and trees from the Holiday Pals stamp set from Pretty Pink Posh.  Arranging them to the window scene and adhering some with adhesive and some with foam adhesive for dimension.  So other than the shaker element, this card is relatively flat and should mail just fine.  As a last embellishment, I’ve diecut the largest bow from Twine and Bows Dies from Pretty Pink Posh with some Heidi Swapp Glitter Tape.  I diecut 4 other bows in white and adhered all together for more dimension.  The bow was the finishing touch to my shaker card!
