Pretty Pink Posh Love Shaker Card

Hello everyone! I wanted to share a fun Valentine's shaker card featuring some adorable ghost images from the Pretty Pink Posh Valentine Ghost Friends stamp set. I was thrilled when I saw this cute stamp set because I have always loved adding ghosts to Halloween cards. Now I can use them for Valentine projects too!

On an A2 size card I have created a large shaker element with the ghosts flying around it. This shaker design is so easy to make with the Love Word Shaker dies. I die cut the love word window opening into a 4.25" x 5.5" panel of kraft card stock. 


I took a clear cello bag that was slightly larger than the love word and filled it with Sweetheart Shaker Beads.  I find using a cello bag is the quickest and easiest way to make the shaker element. I adhered the bag to the center of an A2 card base. Then I adhered the love window panel overtop. Next I inlaid and adhered the hot pink love word outline. 

I Copic colored a few ghosts from the Valentine Ghost Friends stamp set and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I adhered them around the shaker window. I trimmed off the part of the ghosts that was over the edges so the card would fit into an A2 envelope. Lastly I added a sentiment strip in the center of the love word. This sentiment stamp is included in the Valentine Ghost Friends set as well as a few other punny ghost sentiments. 

Here are the Copic colors I used to color the ghosts and their accessories: C1, C3, R14, R24, RV10, RV04
