Pretty Pink Posh Cutting Edge Challenge Blog Hop!


Welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh Cutting Edge Challenge Blog Hop!  For all the details, please pop over to the Pretty Pink Posh Blog.  The blog hop officially opens today and ends August 25 at 11:55pm PST.


I played with the new Stitched Duo 2 Dies from Pretty Pink Posh.  I am really enjoying shaker cards lately and this circle die is perfect to stamp those smaller images inside to make a shaker!  I've used the tiny balloon stamp from Happy Everything by Whimsy Stamps as my image to stamp rainbow style because I knew I wanted to add my favorite 4mm sparkling clear sequins inside.

I added a diecut "HAPPY" from Whimsy Stamps and layered it over the windows and stamped "birthday wishes" in the right hand corner.
