Pretty Pink Posh + Winnie & Walter Blog Hop (video)

Welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh + Winnie & Walter Inspiration Blog Hop!

I created a shaker card by combining Winnie & Walter Stamps with a Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Duo 2 die and of course fabulous sequins!

I die cut the window frame from smooth white cardstock using the Stitched Duo 2 die and the Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangle Lawn Cuts die. I created the "window" from vellum for this card by die cutting another A2 sized rectangle usign the Lawn Fawn die. Then I stamped and embossed the greetings from the Winnie & Walter The Big Bold and Blessings and Big Bold You on the vellum using gold and white embossing powders.

 

For the floral border I stamped the flowers and leaves from The Big The Bold & The Extras on watercolor paper using Versamark and then embossed with white embossing powder. I colored in the images with watercolors made from Distress Inks (Spiced Marmalade, Scattered Straw, Crushed Olive, Forest Moss and Barn Door) + water. I fussy cut the images and assembled them along the bottom edge of my shaker. I adhered a few Pretty Pink Posh sequins in Lemon Meringue, Lemon Drop and Tangerine to the front of the card using the Zots Bling Glue Dots.

I filled my shaker with Sparkling Clear 6mm sequins, Gold Metallic 4mm sequins and Gold 6mm Confetti.
