Good morning Pretty Pink Posh friends! Heather Hoffman here today to share a fun sparkly Thanksgiving Shaker card with you using a mix of fun sparkly Pretty Pink Posh embellishments for shaker fillings!
I have a video for this card as well, so you can see how it all came together.
I love how this kind of feels like a snowglobe – but a fall theme one! The adorable Thanksgiving Scene stamp set is such a fun mini stamp set – I love that the scene building is already done for you! And the largest Window Frame die set is perfect to create a look in the window.
Today I have a snowglobe scene card to share. By adding a simple shaped die, theWinter Scene can be transformed into a snowglobe. I think it would be fun to turn this snowglobe into a shaker card too.
I began with the candy cane background. I used the fabulous Simple Strips die set. The variety of sizes in this set make it easy to create different patterns.
I die cut two different width strips from red and white card. On a piece of thin copy paper, I adhered some stick-it adhesive. I gradually removed the backing, revealing the adhesive, and added the die cut strips to create my pattern. I then trimmed down my homemade patterned paper and adhered it to a white card base.
Next, I die cut the Winter Scene die three times – from white and pearlescent green card, along with white glitter card. I also die cut a separate circle from white glitter card to adhere the scene pieces. I layered the three frames together on the circle die cut, with the glitter frame at the top.
On the white die cut trees, I used a brown copic marker to colour the tree trunks. I then adhered the white card hills and trees to the card, along with the pearlescent green sky.
By layering elements of the scene, it adds dimension. I cut the trunks off the white glitter trees, then adhered them and the white glitter hills to my scene. I then changed my mind and decided I wanted green glitter trees instead, so die cut them and added them to the scene.
To turn the Winter Scene die into a snowglobe, I die cut a Stitched Hexagon die from woodgrain card. I cut the hexagon in half to create the stand for my snowglobe, adhering it behind the Winter Scene.
I die cut some Stitched Stripsfrom dark green pearlescent card, along with a white pearlescent Simple Strip, which I’ll use to ground my snowglobe in the scene. I white heat embossed a sentiment from the Happy Snowman stamp set.
You could finish the card here but I decided to add a Happy Snowman next to the snowglobe. I coloured him with copic markers and die cut him with the coordinating die, then used foam tatape to add him to the scene.
Hello and welcome to the final day of Thanksgiving Theme Week! Hasn’t it been wonderful? It’s Lindsey here, and I’m extra happy to be sharing a card today. Thank you cards are my favorite to make, and I love this time of year that encourages us all to show more gratitude.
A few weeks ago I did some paper piecing. It’s something I haven’t done in a really long time, but I found that I thoroughly enjoyed the process, so I wanted to try it again. It also happens to be a pretty fantastic way to add color if you aren’t in the mood for actual coloring.
I thought the overflowing cornucopia in the Fall Signs stamp set was the perfect image for this technique, so I pulled out some paper and got started. One of the keys to success when paper piecing is to choose paper with small enough patterns that they can still be seen even on a very small image. Another trick is make sure you cut directly on the stamped line.
When I inked up the image, I chose not to use the sign part of it, and instead cut the sentiment with the Thankful For You Script die. To add a little extra interest, instead of using the positive cut, I used the negative panel and backed it with another piece of patterned paper. The final bit of added texture came from covering the card base with a panel cut with the Lattice Background die.
Thanks so much for joining me today! I hope you’ll give this oldie but goodie technique a try.

Hi crafty friends, Tammy here! I’m so excited to be participating in Thanksgiving Theme Week with Pretty Pink Posh. This is my favorite time of the year…my daughters and I LOVE cooking Thanksgiving dinner. We get up really early, hit the Starbucks drive-thru for some caffeine, and spend the day hanging out in the kitchen preparing the food…yum yum!!
I had so much fun creating this card and tag set with the super adorable set, Giving Thanks. As a thanks to you, all items in the Thanksgiving section are 15% off during theme week!
Next, I cut brown patterned paper to 5 X 5″ and attached to a square white card base. I then cut a piece of white cardstock to 4.75 X 4.75 and cut out a window using the Window Frames Die. I cut a piece of Bristol cardstock (also 4.75 X 4.75) and ink blended the background with Rusty Hinge, Spiced Marmalade, and Scattered Straw Distress Oxide inks. Once dry, I attached the window over it, and then onto the patterned paper.
I stamped the sentiment from Giving Thanks in black ink, then arranged the stamped images onto my card, attaching some with foam tape for dimension.
Next, I created a couple of tags. I’m thinking these would be really cute attached to mini pumpkins on our Thanksgiving table! To begin, I cut white cardstock using theStitched Essential 1 Dies to create my tag base. The tops of the tag were cut using the same brown patterned paper. I stamped sentiments from Fall Signs in black ink along the bottom of the tags.
Next, I attached my colored images from Giving Thanks to the tags, using foam tape on the critters for dimension. To complete my tags, I added some orange and white bakers twine. Now I just need to make a few more tags and find mini pumpkins and I’m set, lol!!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I am so thankful for all of you and this amazing crafting community! I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
Hi friends, it’s Jeanne! I hope you’re having a great day! Autumn is my favorite time of year because I love the cooler temperatures and bounty of color that can be found everywhere! A drive to the farm stand or through the local forest preserve is a feast for the eyes.
Pretty Pink Posh has so many Autumn stamps and dies that I had trouble deciding which one to use on my card today. I guess I’ve always been a bit of a “more is more” sort of gal so I used images from several different sets.
I arranged all of the images on a piece of plastic the same size as my card base. I enjoyed arranging different elements to make a fall scene before committing and adhering them in place over the Distress Oxide ink panel.
Good Morning Friends! It is Dana here today and I am excited to be back sharing a card for Thanksgiving Theme Week. Remember, everything in the Thanksgiving category will be 15% off this week! It is a great time to stock up on all of your favorite fall products.
For my card, I am using the gorgeous Autumn Wreath Set. I stamped my wreath, floral images and sentiment with VersaMark ink and heat set it with copper embossing powder. I then watercolored my images with a set of Karin Brushmarkers.
Next, I used the Stitched Strips Dies to create my card panel. I ran the dies through my die cutting machine with white cardstock. I attached the strips to a thin piece of paper and trimmed them down to make my panel. Lastly, I used Perfect Pearls in copper to add splatters to my panel and images.
Thanks for joining me today. I hope you enjoyed my card and be sure and stop back by tomorrow for some more inspiration from the design team.
I set that aside to dry, and once it was dry to the touch, I blended some of those same 3 colors of distress ink over the top – keeping the colors softer and lighter so as not to drown out the leaves underneath. I also added some splatters with white acrylic paint thinned down with a bit of water.
Next up, it was time to add the sentiment! I used the Stitched Hexagons die cut from black cardstock, then layered Thank You Script in white over the top, and popped that up with foam adhesive on the background. The additional little sentiment was from Simple Sentiments, heat embossed in gold, trimmed to a thin strip, then mounted with foam over the top of the larger sentiment. A few Graphite Jewels adhered with my handy Crystal Katana, and then mounted the entire thing on a white cardbase to finish this card off!
Thanks so much for stopping by today – have an absolutely wonderful day!
Hi all, it’s Melody here on the blog today. With Thanksgiving just around the corner I wanted to share an idea I have for some quick and easy place cards for your Thanksgiving table. The place cards make your table just a little more special by adding that handmade touch!
I created four place cards for my post, but the cards can be put together quickly for however many people you have sitting at your holiday table. I started by creating the base for the place cards from Kraft cardstock. I used the stitched rectangle that you get when you die cut the largest die in the Stitched Notes Dies. I scored the Kraft rectangle in the middle then folded the card in half to form a tent card.
I attached the foliage to the place cards, adhering the pumpkins with foam dots to add dimension. The names on the card are computer generated. I finished off the place card with Metallic Gold Jewels.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope I have given you a handmade idea for your Thanksgiving Table.
Since many of us may not be able to share thanksgiving with loved ones this year, I thought it would be sweet to send a few cards in the mail. Just little reminders to friends and family for everything we have to be thankful for this year!
To start, I ink blended the background on a piece of A2 Bristol smooth cardstock using the following distress oxide inks: rusty hinge, mustard seed and squeezed lemonade. Leave the bottom quarter of the card unblended for the stamped images. Next, I used the same ink colors to stamp leaves from the Giving Thanks stamp set for interest. Then using a piece of Bristol smooth card stock, I stamped the images from the same set using versafine onyx black ink.
Images were then colored using the following Zig clean color brush markers: Bears: 064, 028, female bears: 021, 026, 025 and 052, 071, 070, male bears: 043, 041, 060, 067Pumpkins: 070, 052, 202, 021, 046, 044 and pumpkin tops 072 and 065.
White gel pen used to accent the images and then the images were cut using the coordinating dies.
Lastly, I stamped the “happy thanksgiving” sentiment from the Giving Thanks stamp setusing brown ink and then cut the background using the Stitched Notes die. The border around the card was adhered to an A2 white card base using foam tape. The center portion and all of the images were adhered to the card front using liquid glue. And that finishes the card!
Thank you so much for stopping by today. Be sure to stop by the thanksgiving section for 15% off thanksgiving items during this week!
Hi all! Lindsay here on the blog today bringing you a card featuring some of my favorite Pretty Pink Posh holiday dies!
I started with a piece of watercolor paper that I colored with Nuvo Shimmer Powders in various green shades. Once that was dry, I splattered it with white and black splatters.
The centerpiece of this card is then die cut from that watercolored piece using all the tree elements from the Layered Tree Dies. While I had the Layered Tree Dies out, I die cut the small accompanying images of ornaments, stars, and bows from red, gold, and silver glitter cardstock. I knew I wanted the tree to pop on a white background, but wanted a little extra pizzazz, so I cut out the Winter Frame Die from white cardstock for a tone on tone layered background.
Once I had added all of the goodies to the tree, I mounted it using foam background onto the white background with the Winter Frame details. I finished it off with a gold embossed sentiment from the Holiday Signs Stamp Set on red cardstock.
Hope this card inspires you to use some of my favorite PPP products!
