We are excited to announce that Pretty Pink Posh will be hosting a blog hop from Saturday April 26th at 6am PST until Monday April 28th at 11:55pm PST. The blog hop will feature sequin shaker cards and everyone is encouraged to take part! You will be able to join in the fun at the Pretty Pink Posh blog here.

To get everyone excited for the hop and in the mood to create shaker cards, we have an amazing card to share from Debby Hughes!

Woohoo, Debby here and it’s time for a hop! I do love a good hop and if there is one thing I can guarantee it’s that being a Pretty Pink Posh hop it will certainly be colorful, sparkly and cute! I guess noisy too with all those shakers doing their thing LOL.

To start the shaker card I die cut a circle from a card panel using the Hexagon Pattern Circle die and backed the circle with acetate. Also on the back of the panel I surrounded the circle with foam adhesive. I added a piece of Chickaniddy patterned paper to a top folding 5 x 3 ? inch card base, sprinkled on some sequins from Pretty Pink Posh’s fabulous Spring Mix set (such cute colors) onto the center of the card and then added the card panel on top. The sequins were then trapped behind the acetate circle :)

To decorate the shaker I fussy cut and Copic colored two of the cute birds from We’re Expecting and backed them with die cut Tall Flowers, again colored with Copic Markers. These were grounded with a patterned paper hill cut using the A2 Curved Edge die. The ‘Mum’ sentiment from We’re Expecting is stamped on a Tiny Tag and held in place with a little Lawn Fawn twine :) Finally I selectively added a little sparkle with Wink of Stella clear glitter pen.

Have fun with the hop; I think I can hear those shakers doing their thing LOL! ;)
