Hey, friends! Leica here. Today I’m excited to share a Halloween shaker card using a mix of new and previously-released Pretty Pink Posh products. Let’s jump right in!
To start, I created a cute A2-sized background by applying orange watercolor on watercolor cardstock. Once it dried, I stenciled the adorable Layered Ghosts in Lost Shadow Distress Oxide. For their faces, I used Black Soot, and Wilted Violet for the stars. To make the shaker, I cut a frame from teal glitter cardstock, added acetate, and foam tape around it to create the shaker well. Inside, I used a combination of Spooky Glass Beadsand 4MM Summer Sequins Mix as shaker bits.
Since I wanted the ghosts to remain visible, I only added sentiments to the front of the card. I cut the word “boo” from the Large Boo Shadow in black glitter cardstock and the shadow die in vellum. For the sub-sentiment, I stamped one of the sentiments from the Sentiment Strips: Halloween stamp set and cut it using a rectangle scallop die from the Sentiment Strips. Finally, I glued the card panel onto an A2-sized white cardstock, and voila, my card is complete!
Thank you so much for stopping by, and I hope I’ve inspired you to have fun with your stash and mix new and previously-released products, just like the stencils and sequins I used for my card.
I stamped the cupcakes from the Halloween Cupcakes stamp set onto Bristol Smooth cardstock and I colored them using Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens in the following colors: Deep Violet, Black, Light Green, FL Green, Orange, Light Gray, Deep Brown, and Sugar Almond Pink. I used a water brush to blend the colors to get a shaded look. When I finished coloring, I die cut the cupcakes with the Halloween Cupcakes coordinating dies.
For the background of my card, I cut an 8 1/4” x 3 1/4” piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock and applied Twisted Citron Distress Oxide ink to the entire panel. I added Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide ink to the edges. Next, I used the Layered Spider Webs stencil and stenciled the spider webs in Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide ink. I added some Sheer Shimmer Spritz to the background and applied a paper towel over it to pick up some of the ink and to add a little shine.

Hello, friends! It’s Leica here, and I’m excited to share a fun Halloween box card with you today. I used a combination of new and previously-released stamps from PPP to make it extra special.
To start, I assembled the Scallop Box Card Dies using white cardstock. For the back, sides, and front panels, I created a cute gingham pattern using the Pinstripe Stencil with Kitsch Flamingo ink. I added some splatters of black and white ink for an interesting touch. As for the inserts, I ink blended them with Dried Marigold Distress Oxide ink.
Next, I stamped and colored the images from theDecorative Pumpkins and Cozy Fall Critters stamp sets. After that, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and glued them to the inserts of the box card. I adore the Decorative Pumpkins stamp setbecause it comes with decorative stamps for the pumpkins, making them extra special!
I absolutely love how easy it is to make an interactive card with theScallop Box Card Dies. It’s so much fun to fill it with adorable PPP stamps.
I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s card share. Thanks a bunch for joining me on the blog today! Happy crafting!
Hi, friends! It’s Lauren and I am back with a new video today with a shaker card inspired by the Candy Corn Glass Shaker Beads! I think the orange, yellow and white (with some black) are the iconic Halloween colors and I wanted to use some of my favorite images from the latest release on this card, too.
I started with die cutting my background with the largest Wonky Stitched Rectangle Die and the pumpkin from the Boo To You coordinating dies to create my shaker window. To use the emboss resist technique, I stenciled on my spider web layer of the Layered Spider Webs Stencils with embossing ink and used clear embossing powder on the wonky rectangle. I also added the pumpkin stamp from the Boo To You stamp set with black ink and clear embossing powder to the pumpkin cut out.
Now that the embossing is done, I added inks in the color scheme of a candy corn! I started with Mustard Seed Distress Oxide on the bottom right, then blended into Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide and finally a little touch of Picket Fence Distress Ink. I buffed off the ink from the embossing powder and then added a little bit white gold metallic watercolor splatter. The final touch of stenciling is adding in the spiders to my wonky rectangle with the second stencil from the Layered Spider Webs Stencils with a black stencil paste.
While my spiders are drying, I moved on to die cutting some of my favorite images from the Halloween Mug Additions Dies out of scrap cardstock in kraft, yellow, orange, white and black. I added a little ink to my white pumpkin and yellow hat belt, but I assembled them together with such ease and they are so cute! I also stamped my Boo To You stamp set sentiment with embossing ink and white embossing powder onto black cardstock.
Once my background was dry, I assembled my shaker together and added the Candy Corn Glass Shaker Beads and you can see each detailed step in my video today. The pumpkin was adhered to a spider web patterned paper, I created my well around the pumpkin, added the Candy Corn Glass Shaker Beads and closed it with the spider web wonky rectangle panel that also has acetate.
Next I added my die cut images and sentiment around the shaker window as well as some yellow clay confetti circles from the Clay Confetti Wheel #4 for some little, final touches. I hope you enjoy this shaker card and you’re having so much fun with the latest release!
Hey, friends! It’s Leica here, and I’m super excited to share a fun Halloween shaker card with you, featuring the latest products from Pretty Pink Posh. I’m not a huge Halloween fan, but I absolutely adore crafting, and I’m thrilled that PPP has some not-too-scary Halloween stamps. I’m all about that cute Halloween stuff!
For my card, I started with a pink A2-sized panel and used the Layered Candy Treats Stencils to create a colorful and fun background. I used some Distress Oxide Inks in Broken China, Cracked Pistachio, Dried Marigold, Kitsch Flamingo, Mustard Seed, Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, and Wilted Violet. To add a touch of sparkle, I splattered some rose gold acrylic paint.
Next, I made a shaker frame using the large die from the Fancy Cake Dies in pink cardstock. This die is my absolute favorite for A2-sized shaker cards because of the lovely stitching detail around the frame. Before finishing up the shaker card, I stamped the sentiment on the acetate panel with Stazon black ink.
Now, for the fun part! I added some Halloween Candy Mix as shaker bits, which I thought was the perfect touch for this yummy shaker card. To make it even more delightful, I stamped, colored, and cut out the adorable cupcakes from the Halloween Cupcakes stamp set. Then, I glued two cupcakes on the sides and foam mounted the one in the middle. Finally, I adhered the card panel onto a white A2-sized card base.
Thanks a bunch for visiting! We’d be thrilled to see your Halloween cards too. Don’t forget to tag #prettypinkposhstamps. Happy crafting!
Hey, friends! It’s Leica here, and I’m thrilled to share a fun Halloween shaker card featuring the new Halloween Mug Additions dies and other awesome items from the August 2023 release.
To start, I created the shaker element by cutting an A2-sized card panel from white cardstock. I added a cool stenciled background using the Layered Argyle Stencils and some Distress Oxide Inks in Black Soot, Dried Marigold, and Spiced Marmalade. To make it even more interesting, I splattered some rose gold acrylic paint.
For the shaker frame, I used black glitter cardstock and cut it with the frame die from the Fancy Cake Dies. Inside the shaker, I used the Ghostly Friends Mix for some spooky fun.
Next, I cut out the elements from the Halloween Mug Additions Dies and added color to them using a finger dauber. I used the Mummy Wrap Stencil to give the mug a cool pattern. To add a sentiment, I used the Sentiment Strips: Halloween stamp setand the Sentiment Strips dies. To make it even spookier, I added some spiders cut from purple glitter cardstock. Finally, I glued the card panel onto an A2-sized white cardstock.
I hope you enjoyed today’s card share. Thanks a bunch for stopping by and see you next time!

Hi crafty friends! Rebecca here today to share a fun Halloween shaker card! This shaker card is made with the Ghost Shaker Dies and is so fun because it is made with non traditional colors.
The Ghost Shaker Dies come with everything you need to cut the base of the ghost, the shaker frames and the acetate shaker window. I cut my ghosts out of pink cardstock for a fun look, but if pink is not your thing, you can use any color you like for your card. I filled my shaker with the Ghostly Friends Clay Confetti which includes black and white ghosts, hearts, sprinkles and more.
The Ghost Shaker Dies even comes with small dies for the eyes and mouth for your ghost and a boo script sentiment. I used all of those to complete the two flat ghosts and the one shaker ghost. And for a fun touch, I added two of the hearts from the Ghostly Friends Clay Confetti on each ghost to make a bow! This cute die set literally has everything you need to make fun, whimsical Halloween cards with no need for stamping!
To start, I assembled the Scallop Box card using white 80lb cardstock. For the background, sides, and front panels, I added orange watercolor to watercolor paper and stenciled some adorable dots using the Medium Polka Dots Stencil with Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide ink. I then cut the inserts and inked them with Lost Shadow Distress Oxide Ink.
Next, I stamped and colored the adorable ghosts from the Ghost Friends and Halloween Signs stamp sets. After that, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and glued them to the inserts of the box card.
And that’s it! My Halloween box card is complete. Thank you so much for stopping by, and I hope I’ve inspired you to create your own box card. Happy crafting!
Good morning! It’s Lindsey here today and I’m sharing some cards made with one of my most favorite die sets from this month’s release–the Halloween House. This die is fantastic because it cuts the entire house outline in one piece, and then you can choose how many colors/layers you’d like to add back inside. And I had so much fun doing just that!
The Halloween House die is large and will fill an entire card front. I wanted to have room for a (somewhat) spooky night scene around the house, so I chose to make a larger 5×7 card. I fully embraced Halloween on this one, and built my card mostly out of different shades of black and grey For added dimension, I die cut the house outline three times with a shiny black cardstock and glued them together. Then I layered back in a few shades of purple and teal for the windows, door, and shutters. I love how it makes it look like the house is glowing inside.
This die set comes with a few extra Halloween images, so I used them to up the spooky cute factor by adding some floating ghosts, magical stars, and a black, sparkly cat. I backed the cat with a white cat slightly offset to create a bit of shadow, which helped him stand out more against this otherwise dark card.
Next, I set out to finish the scene. I added a forest of trees behind the house using the tree from the Nature Essentials Dies. The moon is one of the additional dies included in theHalloween House set. Next, I added two trees to the front yard using the Fruit Tree Die. Finally, I layered several of the previously released Spooky Fence Die and added a sign with a greeting from the Sentiment Strips: Halloween stamps and dies.
While this die may be named the Halloween House die, you are definitely not limited to creating just haunted houses. To show its versatility, I recreated the same card for a different season.
I pictured gingerbread and fancy sugar cookie houses when I created my Christmas card. To transform the Halloween House, all I did was swap out the colors and trim off the spiderweb from the roof’s eave. I added a glittery bow (cut from the Build A Gift Dies) there instead. I couldn’t believe how different the house looked with such small changes!
I opted for a simple background and embossed snow using theSnowfall Stencil. Then I repeated the trees in the front yard using the smallest tree in the Pine Trees Dies. I wanted the card to be sugary sweet, so I added glittery snow to the trees, window panes, and roof top. To further decorate the yard, I added a gumdrop walkway and peppermint lollipops using the Candy Treats Dies.
This cute holiday house needed an inviting doorstep, so I added packages using gifts in various sizes from the Village Additions and Happy Santa stamps and dies. I also added a wreath from the Village stamp set to the door.
