Liz here and today I’m sharing a card for Day 2 of our Thanksgiving Theme Week.

I’ve been having lots of fun playing with this adorable Giving Thanks set as it has a lot of fun critters and images to color and a variety of fall leaves. Also, I love using the Coordinating Dies to help me cut them out, especially the tiny ones.

Since I love shakers, I thought to create another one and use the Mini Storybook 1 as I love the dual stitching feature which means that after you run the die through the cutting machine, the negative piece is left with stitching. Here you can see the stitching around the window frame.

Here, I placed the window die on the upper part of the card and ran it through the die cutting machine. Than I thought it would be nice to add a border 3/4 down, so I pulled out these cute Scallop Border and placed it down on the same piece I just die cut before running it again through cutting machine.

I wanted a contrasting color between the white cardstock and the plaid paper, so I die cut another Scallop Border and used some chocolate card stock which I glued onto the white piece by lining it up.

For the inside of the shaker, I created some clouds and grass by doing some ink blending and glued down some new 1/4″ Gold Star Confetti so they don’t fall down when shaking and added these wonderful 4mm Autumn Harvest Mix sequins perfect for fall.

I hope you liked today’s post. Be sure to join us tomorrow for another day of Thanksgiving inspiration!

Hello everyone, Joni here. I am here for Day 1 of our Thankgiving Theme Week. Today I am sharing inspiration with the new Giving Thanks stamp set and Giving Thanks Coordinating dies.

This card is easy to make. I stamped the images from the Giving Thanks and Camping Friends stamp sets. The images and ground were colored with Copic markers. The measurement of the card base is 7 ¼ x 4 ¼.

Next, I distressed the top of the ground to give it an interest in colors.

Finally, I stamped the sentiment “Happy Thanksgiving” from Giving Thanks stamp set and the “hello there” was from the Camping Friends stamp set. I also added some Sparkling Clear sequins to finish it off.

I hope you enjoyed! Enjoy the rest of our Thanksgiving Theme Week!

Hello friends!! Amy L. here today! I have been itching to improve my no-line watercoloring so today I am playing with the Christmas Friends Stamp Set, Christmas Friends Coordinating Dies, STAMPtember Winter Bird Stamp Set and Mini Storybook 1 Dies. I recently made a goal to be an artist (eventually…) and I have decided that no-line watercoloring would be my first step LOL…. Hands up if you are like me!

More details on my card:

1. On a watercolor paper, blend Altenew Ruby Red and Grapevine inks using a mini blending tool. Die cut out with Mini Storybook 1 Die. Add white watercolor splatters and Perfect Pearl solution
2. Die cut another watercolor paper with the same die, blend the little pieces with Altenew Evergreen ink
3. Stamp the images from Christmas Friends Stamp Set with Antique Linen distress ink. Watercolor with distress inks using a paint brush. Die cut out with Christmas Friends Coordinating Dies
4. White heat emboss the sentiment from STAMPtember Winter Bird Stamp Set. Ink blend with Tea Dye distress ink
5. Mount everything in place with foam tape. Embellish with PPP Gold Star Sequins, Sparkling Clear Sequin Mix and Holiday Shimmer Mix

Hello and Happy Halloween! It’s Keeway again and I’m back for my second guest post for Pretty Pink Posh. For all of you taking the kids out for trick or treating, stay safe! I recently moved to my first home only a week ago and my neighbors have decorated their homes for all the trick or treaters tonight. I hope there’s a nice turnout or else I’m going to end up with a lot of candy…eeks!

Hopefully your Halloween cards are all sent out, cause it’s time to get started on those winter holiday cards! Have you seen how cute the holiday sets in the October release are? Today I’ll be showing off one of them today, the Winter Wonderland stamp set.

Admittedly, today’s card took quite a bit of time since there’s a lot of layers involved even though it might not look like it! I started with blue A2 sized card stock and die cut Storybook 1 in the center. Then I heat embossed a few snowflakes from the stamp set in white in the top left and bottom right corners.

Next, I die cut the same Storybook 1 on white cardstock, extracted the pieces within the windows to inlay in the blue windows. I cut a curve in the top 2 pieces leaving areas window for my shaker window.

So here’s where it gets interesting and some piecing together. First, I adhered a piece of acetate directly behind my blue cardstock. Next, I inlaid my die cut snow pieces back into the window. Then, I added craft foam in back, all around the areas outside the clear windows, leaving a small area to add some Winter Sparkle Mix Sequins.

Now to seal all the sequins in, I need to add a background. I used another piece of white cardstock, blended on some tumbled glass distress ink, and then heat embossed my sentiment “baby it’s cold outside” in silver right where it will show in the top right window. Woohoo, now the shaker scene is done!

Lastly, I stamped my the eskimo, igloo, and polar bear on white cardstock and colored them up with copic markers. Then I die cut them with the Winter Wonderland coordinating dies and adhered them to my card with foam squares. It’s finally done!

Cheers, Keeway
