Aloha! How to Make a Pineapple Shaker Card with Lil' Inker Designs

Hello friends! Today is such a fun day because I’m happily blog hopping as part of the Lil’ Inker Designs team. We’re celebrating a new release of stamps and dies during our three day blog hop - and you.will.love.it. You’re going to love the summer vibes and colorful butterflies in this release. I am especially smitten with the pineapple dies on today’s cards, so let’s get right to it!

(This post contains affiliate links. If you shop through my links, I may receive a small compensation at no additional cost to you. Thanks for shopping with me!!)
The Pineapple Shaker die set is FUN. Seriously. There are two sizes of stitched pineapples, that can be used on their own, OR layered together to make a PINEAPPLE SHAKER. What the WHAAAAT!!!? Yes, all of your pineapple shaker card dreams have come true with this baby!
Plus there’s an amazing texture die to add a darling pineapple pattern. I just love it, and I’ll be pineappling ALL the things. (Yes, I just turned pineapple into a verb. Jealous?) Did you notice the outer stitched edge around the pineapple? So fun to add that extra little detail. The stitching is one of my favorite things about Lil' Inker dies!
On this next card, you can see the two pineapples used separately, and the pattern die on the larger one. And hello cute ALOHA, what about the Hawaiian Word Dies? This set includes “Aloha” and “Mahalo” both with the fun outside bubble shape too. Adorable. I also used the sentiment companion stamps, called Be Sweet. There are so many cute, tropical sentiments to mix and match with other products!


And before you go, how about ONE MORE sweet tropical project? This is a clean and simple card created with the Think Happy Thoughts Stamps and coordinating dies. I colored the images with colored pencils and then just crafted up a happy little scene. I die cut the pattern into the card base using the Quilted Swirl Stitched Pattern Die. I love that background die!

Thanks so much for coming by today!!! I hope you'll stop by all of the designers' blogs and enjoy their beautiful crafty projects today. And then check back tomorrow, because this is only day 1 of our THREE DAY hop! Plus, if you comment along the way you'll be eligible to WIN the entire new release!
