Pretty Pink Posh - Happy New Year Shaker Card

Hello there, happy new year!

This is my first card of 2025, and I'm happy to announce that I'll be staying in the Pretty Pink Posh design team for another term! Yay!! For the occasion, and also to celebrate the new year, I went for a super duper extra shiny and sparkly shaker card that I had a blast working on using a whole bunch of Pretty Pink Posh recent and previously released items. And how fun it was to play with this amazing kraft + white + gold + silver color palette!

I started off by cutting a 4,5 x 3,25 inches panel out of kraft cardstock that I stenciled using the starry stencil from the Spooky Sky stencil pack along with white pigment ink. So, I added a bunch of white stars to my kraft panel, and then added texture. I mixed some copic opaque white ink with water, and used a slim brush to add splatters to my panel. I also added gold shimmer splatters and silver shimmer splatters to match with my color palette.

I cut an Eyelet Rectangle panel out of white cardstock, and once my kraft panel was dry, I attached it to the white panel using liquid glue. I also cut a 5,5 x 4,25 inches grey shimmer panel, and attached my scalloped panel to it using 1mm foam squares for dimension.

Next I cut the different bits and pieces to build and assemble my Champagne Flute Shakers:

1. Cut a Champagne Flute Shaker frame out of holographic cardstock

2. Cut a whole flute out of acetate, and stuck it at the back of the flute frame using liquid glue

3. Still at the back of the flute, added foam strips all around the edges, following the shape of the flute frame

4. Poured a bunch of Celebration shaker beads inside the frame

5. Cut a whole flute out of yellow gold cardstock, peeled the backing papers off the foam strips, and stuck the yellow gold piece to the foam strips to totally close the Champagne Flute Shaker

6. Repeated those steps to create a second flute

I attached my two Champagne Flute Shakers to my kraft panel using liquid glue, and then die cut several items from different sets out of gold glitter, silver glitter, white glitter, holographic, and white cardstock. Here is a detailed list of the die sets I used: • Christmas Lights Garland - light string, light bulbs • Big Dump Truck - light bulb caps • Party Hats - hats • Birthday Mug Additions - stars, scalloped details on the hats • Big Celebration Cupcake - fireworks • Big Christmas Cupcake - firework center pieces.

I assembled all those pieces using liquid and foam squares, and then attached them all on the panel using foam squares again. And for my greeting, I cut the word "Celebrate" from the Gift Card Bag die set out of dark grey glitter cardstock, and stuck it to the card using liquid glue.
