Sending You Sunshine Shaker
Good morning! Heather here this morning to share another Something Old, Something New card with you – basically mixing together both newer products, and older ones – to show how AMAZINGLY well Pretty Pink Posh products work together! Today, I’ve used one of my first PPP stamp sets – Birdie Friends, paired up with a die that released about a year and a half ago called Stitched Pieces. I added a sentiment from a newer set from last summer called Summer Friends.
I started off by stamping the cute little row of birdies, die cutting them with the coordinating Birdie Friends Dies, and coloring them in a rainbow of Copic colors. I added some details with a white gel pen for interest.
Next up, I used a leftover die cut from Stitched Notes that I had on my desk, and then die cut Stitched Pieces from the center of that panel. I stamped my sentiment in the center of one of the negative pieces.
I then turned that panel into a shaker element – but only did that to the top and bottom portion of theĀ Stitched Pieces. I filled it with Sparkling Clear 3mm sequins, and adhered it onto some rainbow plaid pattern paper.
Finally, I added the birdies with foam adhesive, and added the sentiment piece with a double layer of foam adhesive to pop it out of the center. I also attached it at a bit of a jaunty angle – just so a bit of the plaid paper peeks out from behind it.
While this card doesn’t technically have a “sun” on it – everyone knows that you can’t have a rainbow without the sun! I can’t help but think this card would cheer anybody up – don’t you think?
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day!
This is so cute, colorful and fun! :)
Soooooo Bright and Cheery!!!
Oh so cute. Love the fun colors and layout. Love this card.
This is just adorable!! I love the rainbow of birds and the fun way you used that die for the shaker!!! GREAT design!
This is so sweet Heather. If the little rainbow of birds doesn’t make someone smile then I doubt the sun would either! LOL Love the stitched window die too.
