Hello crafty friends, it’s June! Today I’m sharing this shaker card I made using only products from the new fall release. Yes you read that right, all products I used are new! That doesn’t happen very often for me because I keep returning to old favorites, but this release is packed with products that are right up my alley and this card definitely shows that.

I started off by making a shaker using the new Fall Word Shaker, cutting the frame piece from light orange cardstock and the back panel from a darker shade to add some contrast. I filled the shaker with the Blush Harvest Shaker Beads, which inspired my entire color palette. I added some white gel pen highlights on the shaker element aswel as all the other die cut pieces I’ll be adding, like the acorns from the Fall Holder Additions. I love this set so much with all its tiny fall dies! 

I cut one of the Pinking Circles from white cardstock and masked off the border using post-it note tape so I could ink blend on just the inner circle. I used Distress Oxides in the colors Scattered Straw, Dried Marigold and Saltwater Taffy for the blend, and splattered inks in a shade darker on top, which were Wild Honey, Spiced Marmelade and Worn Lipstick.

I cut 2 of the Wide Leaf Shaker from yellow cardstock and used that same Wild Honey ink to darken up some parts. I added them in the corners underneath the circle layer, going off the card base. Speaking of the card base, I cut a panel from white cardstock and blended my own background using my absolute favorite of the new stencils! I used Tea Dye Distress Oxide and went in with a very light hand to add some color to the panel first, before using the Windowpane Plaid stencils to create a tone-on-tone print. 

As a finishing touch, I added some of the Upright Greetings: Fall to the other 2 corners to fill the empty space and turn the shaker into an actual sentiment saying ‘Happy Fall Greetings’. And that finishes my card!

I hope you’re enjoying seeing the amazing cards the Design Team has created this month because I was absolutely blown away by the cards I’ve seen so far! I hope to see you again soon, bye!

Hello! Christina here to share another autumn-inspired card featuring products from the latest release. I used the new Fall Bucket Additions to create this adorable scarecrow bucket and filled it with a bounty of fall leaves and apples. The background is a new stencil called Wheat Pattern that I just can’t get enough of. It’s the perfect backdrop to any fall card.

Fall Holder Addition Dies
Stitched Leaves Dies
Stitched Torn Rectangle Dies
Wheat Pattern Stencil
Fall Harvest Stamp Set
Sentiment Strips Dies

Let’s start with the background. As I mentioned above, I used the new Wheat Pattern stencil for this card. I chose artichoke green ink and stenciled the pattern onto an ivory cardstock panel that I die-cut using the largest Stitched Torn Rectangles. Then I added distressing to the panel by lightly blending brown ink around the edges and spattering it with a Mica Stain for a little sparkle. Finally, I mounted this onto an artichoke green cardstock panel trimmed to 4.25 x 5.5 inches and attached it to a top-fold card base.

Next, I die-cut all the elements to build the scarecrow bucket and the leaves and apples to fill it. I used a wood-grain-patterned paper for the actual bucket pieces and added shading before assembling it. To dress up the bucket for fall, I chose the scarecrow, but there are a few different options in the set, including an adorable Thanksgiving turkey. I added pink cheeks to his face and used a plaid-patterned paper for his hat. I assembled all the bucket pieces and attached them to my background panel using foam squares. This left plenty of room to tuck in an abundant amount of fall leaves and apples. I chose traditional fall colors for these elements and added shading to the pieces before assembling and attaching them. 

My last steps included adding a sentiment and a few white gel pen highlights. I stamped and heat-embossed my sentiment with cream embossing powder on kraft cardstock, then I used the coordinate die for the ‘thankful’ word and a small sentiment strip for the rest of the sentiment. I added highlights to the apples and his eyes to finish up my card design.

Thank you so much for reading about this adorable fall bucket card I created featuring new products from the latest collection. Happy crafting!

Hello Crafty Friends! Catherine here, and today I’m sharing a fun fall card featuring the adorable Mouse Holder, Fall Bucket Additions, and Fall Holder Additions from Pretty Pink Posh’s latest release! This little mouse is just too cute, and I decided to dress him up as a sweet scarecrow using accessories from the Fall Bucket Additions set.

To begin, I created a soft, cloudy background on an A2-sized piece of white cardstock using the Clouds Stencil. cardstock. I then added a decorative border by die cutting the panel with the largest die from the Stitched Torn Rectangles set. 

Next, I die cut the mouse and all the coordinating pieces from white cardstock. I added color with Distress Oxides using the following combinations: 

Body– Hickory Smoke
Inner Ears and Tummy– Tattered Rose
Eyes and Mouth– Black Soot
Nose– Kitsch Flamingo
Cheeks– Spun Sugar

For the scarecrow look, I die cut the hat and hair from the Fall Buckets Additions set. I created a fun plaid pattern on the hat using the Windowpane Plaid Stencils and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide. I added hand a coordinating hat band and ink blended it with the same color. 

For extra detail, I used the mouth stitching die from the Fall Bucket Additions set to create the stitched accent on the hat. I lightly ink blended the stitches with Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide and colored the straw like hair with Tea Dye and Scattered Straw. 

To create the bucket, I first ran a piece of white cardstock through my die cut machine with the Checkered Pierced Plate Die for texture. I then die cut the bucket and handle from the Candy Bucket set and ink blended both pieces with Scattered Straw and Antique Linen Distress Oxides. 

Next came the fun fall embellishments! I die cut leaves and pumpkins from the Fall Holder Additions and Fall Bucket Additions Die sets and ink blended them with the following Distress Oxide combinations: 

Turquoise– Salvaged Patina, Weathered Wood
Orange– Carved Pumpkin, Dried Marigold, Gathered Twigs
Red– Candied Apple, Ripe Persimmon
Green– Bundled Sage, Peeled Paint

I splattered the turquoise and orange pumpkins with coordinating watercolors diluted with water for a little extra texture and interest. 

For the bottom of the scene, I die cut the grass from white cardstock using the Grass Border Die. I a few splatters of blue watercolor before adhering all the elements onto the cloudy background. 

For the sentiment, I die cut the word “FALL” from the Fall Bucket Additions set and ink blended them with Ripe Persimmon and Dried Marigold. I paired it with a red stamped “Greetings: to create the finished sentiment. To complete the card, I added a crisp white border along with a few clear enamel dots.

Thanks so much for joining me today! I hope you enjoyed this sweet little fall scarecrow mouse card and that it inspires you to create your own fun project with Pretty Pink Posh’s latest release! Happy Crafting!

Hello Crafty Friends! It is Hanh here with you today. I have a sweet card to share with you featuring the Acorn Shaker Dies, Stitched Leaves Dies, Happy Fall Stamp & Dies, Gingham Stencil and Blush Harvest Shaker Beads. So let’s get started. 

I used the Acorn Shaker Dies to diecut the solid acorn out of kraft cardstock and a piece of clear acetate. Next, I secured the window cutout die to the full acorn die with a piece of tape. I used this die combo to diecut one acorn out of kraft and 6 acorns out of white cardstock. I used the acorn top die from the Acorn Shaker Dies and the Stitched Leaves Dies to diecut the acorn top and leaves out of colored cardstock. 

For the shaker design, I layered and adhered the white acorns to each other with liquid glue before adhering the stack to the solid kraft acorn to create the shaker well. I filled the shaker well with some of the absolutely beautiful Blush Harvest Shaker Beads. I closed the shaker off with the clear acetate acorn. I topped the shaker with the kraft colored acorn with the cutout window and the brown acorn top. To add extra cuteness to the acorn, I added eyes, a smile and some blushing cheeks using the Gingerbread Shaker Dies. 

I adhered the leaves from the front and back of the acorn shaker and highlighted with a white gel pen. I added a bow with ribbon from my stash. 

For the layout, I used the Gingham Stencil and some Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink to add a subtle gingham plaid design to a piece of pink cardstock (4” x 5.25”).

For the sentiment, I stamped the “Happy” and “Fall” from the Happy Fall Stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of white cardstock and used the Sentiment Strips Dies and the Happy Fall coordinating dies to diecut them out. I adhered the shaker and sentiment to the card front. Finally, I adhered the panel to a white A2 cardbase (4.25” x 5.5”).

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card and are inspired to check out all of the fun products from the September Release and create your own shaker card. Be sure to head on over to the Pretty Pink Posh Shop for more info and inspirations. 

Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Hi crafty people! It’s Rachel here today with a fall-themed shadow box card using the new Mouse Holder die. I always get so excited when there is a new cute addition to the holder dies. This cute mouse is no different. One of my favorite ways to use the holder dies is by using them in a shadow box card.   

So that is exactly what I did; I started by cutting the Shadow Box die two times in a dark orange. Out of one of them, I also used the window die included in the shadow box die set to create the opening. The scalloped die I used to put on the back of my card.   

I used the new Wheat Pattern stencil and a darker orange ink on top of my shadow box; I stenciled both sides on both of my panels. For the inside, I used a dark green so it would look like my mouse was standing on the grass. Then I assembled the shadow box, using liquid glue and double-sided tape for some extra sturdiness. I like to start with assembling so I can lay my other die cuts on top to see if I like the layout.  

Now it was time to die-cut our cut mouse out of gray and light pink for his ears. I added shading by using darker colors of ink. For the eyes, instead of using the die set, I used the Onyx Pearls.   

To give the mouse something to hold and add decorations to my card. I grabbed the new Fall Holder Additions die. I used green, yellow, orange, and red for all my elements, so it would work well with the dark orange shadow box I made. As always, I shaded all my elements using darker ink.   

Then I started laying out everything on my shadow box, and once I had found my preferred layout, it was time to grab my liquid glue and adhere everything to my card. For some finishing touches, I used a white gel pen to add some highlights.  

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog post. I hope you liked this fall shadow box card and got inspired to use it yourself with all the holder dies critters.

Hi friends, Debbie here with the new Fall Bucket Additions Dies from the Fall Release at Pretty Pink Posh! I instantly fell in love with this set, I’m meaning look at Mr. Scarecrow! Love all the add ons to the previously released Candy Bucket Dies and this release is no exception! 

Fall Bucket Additions Dies
Stitched Leaves Dies
Happy Fall Stamp Set
Happy Fall Coordinating Dies
Gingham Stencil
Candy Bucket Dies
Rounded Stitched Rectangle Dies

I started off with the Candy Bucket and Fall Bucket Additions Dies die-cutting out the bucket from a cream card stock and the elements for the Scarecrow. Blending on dye inks to the edge of the bucket and the hat for added dimension. I did die-cut out extra straw from the Fall Bucket Additions to tuck into the Candy Bucket. 

Next, I die-cut out several of the Stitched Leaves to fill up the candy bucket with orange, yellow and tan card stocks. I kept the colors to three colors that capture fall best of all. 

Using the Gingham Stencil and a light blue card stock on a grip mat, I ink blended on a shade darker dye ink. With the largest Rounded Stitched Rectangle Dies I die-cut out the panel and mat it with a darker blue card stock.

With the Happy Fall stamp set I stamped and heat embossed the “Love Fall Most of all” with a cream embossing powder. With the coordinating dies I die-cut the sentiment out and add foam squares to the back.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you love my card as much as I do!
