Cards

Hi friends! It’s Dana here today and I am back with a fun shaker card to share with you all.

I started my card by making my card panel with the Layered Balloons stencil set. This is a three pack of stencils that layer together to create a fun background. Next, I created my frame with the Scallop Frame die. I attached a piece of vellum behind the frame to soften the background and added Shaker Strips around the edges to create depth for the shaker. I filled the shaker with a mixture of Mint, Strawberry and Purple Shimmer Confetti. 

Once my shaker was assembled I set it aside and began working on my birthday images. I used the Party Balloons, Party Hats, and Birthday Candles die sets for the images. I die cut the pieces from white cardstock and ink blended each individual piece with dye ink. I used liquid glue to assemble the images and added a few white paint splatters for a little added detail. I then used the Sentiment Strips: Birthday stamp set and Sentiment Strips die set for my sentiment. Lastly, I attached everything to the top of my shaker with foam adhesive to finish my card. 

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my card. I will be back soon to share another project with you all.

Enjoy your day, Dana

Hello crafty friends! Davina here to share a bit of Luck with you. I just can’t get over how cute all the new St. Patrick’s Day products are. One of the first projects I made was this St. Patrick’s Day Cupcake themed card. 

I used the fantastic Big Valentines Day Cupcake Dies and the Lucky Stamp set and coordinating dies combined with the older Leprechaun image from the Best of Luck stamp set. After stamping, coloring, and ink blending my images, I assembled them over a clover filled back ground that I made using the Layered Shamrocks Stencil. I gently splattered some metallic gold ink and matted with yellow and green layers. 

I embossed my sentiment onto a black banner cut from the Sentiment Strip Die Set, and added a bakers twine bow to the top corner. I finished this off with the addition of some clay embellishments from the St. Patrick’s Day clay confetti.

Thanks you for stopping by and I hope that you check out all of the fabulous inspiration from the incredible Design Team.

Hi friends! It’s Zsofi here today and I am sharing a fun birthday cake shaker card with the new release. I love interactive cards, but I tend to be afraid making them. The new Cake Shaker die set makes it a breeze and no more thinking is needed what to fill it with, since we have the Shaker Beads!

First I die cut the Cake Shaker die 6 times: once from blue violet cardstock and 5 times from cream cardstock. As I did not cut apart the cake die and the window, I was sure that all the cakes will have the windows in the same place. (If I cut the dies apart, I usually use some washi tape to hold the dies together while I cut all my pieces). I used liquid glue to adhere the layers together. I placed a piece of acetate under the blue layer before mounting it on top of the cream layers.

Then I die cut the background using the new Pierced Stars Cover Plate and a light grey cardstock. I also cut a bunch of candles from cream cardstock and stacked 4 layers together for each candle to have some dimension. On the flames I used Copic markers.

I filled the cake with Berry Smoothie Shaker Beads and gently adhered the background to it. I love the sound of the beads shaking, it is mesmerizing for me!

For the sentiment I chose a line from the new Sentiment Strips: Birthday stamp set and slightly curved it to fit on a banner which I cut from pink cardstock with the Love From Afar die set. I used pink ink as I wanted to add some pink birds which I cut with the same die set. Aren’t they cute?

I wish you liked my card and got inspired to make some easy shaker cards. I cannot wait to make a bunch of this simply design with different colours to boost my birthday stash!

Thank you for stopping by and see you soon, Zsofi

Hello crafty friends! Barbara here and I am so happy to have a chance to share a this card that I made for Pretty Pink Posh’s 10th birthday celebration!

This project was made using the adorable Birthday Candles die set. I die cut them from colored cardstocks using two tones for each candle and paper pieced them together using liquid glue. I die cut the flames from white cardstock and added stickles to create a sparkly shine.

You can customize the colors to fit the recipient, or to use up your paper scraps!

I adhered the candles to a panel that I created using the Birthday Words stencil. I used white cardstock and added white texture paste over the stencil for a subtle textured look to really showcase the candles.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Happy crafting!

Hi crafty friends! It’s Dana here today and I am back with a bright and cheerful birthday card to share with you all. The latest release is packed full of so many amazing die sets! They all coordinate perfectly and can be used to create so many fun cards.

I started my card by doing all of my die cutting. I used the Big Birthday Cupcake die set for the large cupcake. I then used the Party Hats and Birthday Candles dies to create the fun “party” accessories. Lastly, I used the Birthday Mug Additions set to create the star cupcake topper to decorate the top of the cupcake. I just love how all of these sets can be used together to give you so many options. 

Next, I used the Pierced Stars Plate to create my card panel. I love the subtle detail this die creates on your background. I then used the Fancy Cake die set to create my white frame for my card. I stamped my sentiment with the Sentiment Strips: Birthday stamp set and attached it to a banner I die cut with the Sentiment Strips die set. Lastly, I attached all the fun birthday images with foam adhesive to finish my card.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my card. I can’t wait to see what you create with all these fun new products!!

Enjoy your day, Dana
