Valentine Mug Cards + Video
Hi crafty friends! I’m Rebecca Keppel and super excited to be sharing my very first project video on the Pretty Pink Posh Blog and YouTube channel! Today I am combining the previously released Winter Mug Dies and the new Valentine Mug Addition Dies!

I love additions to original die sets because it really stretches the usage of the original set and gives everything more bang for its buck! In my video, I share how you can use both die sets together to create shaker cards or flat cards.
In creating an A2 card with a mug shaker, I used the Winter Mug Dies to cut out 2 pink mugs and one die cut transparency mug. One pink mug I use as the base on the A2 card. I cut a heart from the Valentine Mug Additions Dies out of the other pink mug and then adhered the transparency to the back creating a shaker window! Then create a border of foam tape around the window and place it down onto the base mug having poured some Strawberry Shortcake Clay Confetti and Valentine’s Day Clay Confetti right in the center of that base mug. Then have fun decorating around the mug with the Valentine Mug Addition Dies. Love all the additions from chocolates to a dipped strawberry, cherry and more!
For the flat mug, I realized that the mug die cut would fit perfectly on the Sweet Note Dies die cut with just a teeny bit of the mug handle hanging off the side.
Rather than using the heart die to create a shaker, you can use it as a die cut to decorate the envelope or mini card since both the positive and negative piece retain faux stitching lines.
Other die cuts from the Valentine Mug Additions Dies can also be used to decorate the Sweet Note Dies and you can use some liquid glue that dries clear to adhere some XOXO Clay Confetti to the top of the mug for sprinkles on your cocoa!
I hope you will love combining these die sets as much as I did! Have a LOVEly day!
