Pretty Pink Posh - Spider Shaker Card

Hello everyone! I have a super fun Halloween shaker card today. I absolutely love the new Spider Shaker die from Pretty Pink Posh. He's just too cute to spook and makes such an impactful element on an A2 size card. To fill the shaker I used some Spellbound Shaker Beads. The whimsical color combo of this bead mix seemed just right for my spider themed card. 

The background on this card is a blend of Dusty Concord and Villainous Potion Distress Oxide inks with lots of splattering. 

Besides the Spider Shaker, I used some other Pretty Pink Posh die sets to complete this card. For the hat, I used dies from an older set - Halloween Mug Additions. It's the perfect size for the spider!

The little web and spider dies are included in the Halloween Holder Additions. They made some fun embellishments to fill the spaces around the large spider. 

The Halloween Greetings stamp set includes a variety of spook-tacular sentiments. I picked out a couple to add to my card. I white heat embossed them on black card stock so they would really stand out. 

I'll leave you with a few my creative tips to make any Halloween card even more fa-boo-lous! Add google eyes to Halloween critters. I keep a stash of different shapes and sizes on hand for this purpose. Cut a thin strip of card stock to use as a web string for the spider to hang from. Lastly use an action wobbler to attach the spider (or any creepy, crawler critter) onto the card. The wobbler action is perfect for a shaker element and make the card tons more fun for the recipient!
