PFS Shaker card

Soooo, guess what! I am on the Picket Fence Studios Design Team! After my guest spot in the autumn I was offered a permanent spot and here is my first card as a member of the team. It was a bit difficult to decide on what to show you first, and I’ve actually opted for a card without any colouring. That’s one of the reasons I said yes: to challenge myself to make more different types of cards, and more without colouring. I’m loving it!

I’ve used several of their new products and even matched it together with an older sentiment. For the main part of the card I’ve used the Plumeria Flowers 6×8 stencil (all links are affiliate links) together with two Distress Oxide colours. Then I’ve taken the 2.5″ Connected Circles Shaker Creator die to make the shaker element. I cut out and glued together 7 or 8 layers of card stock to get the height I wanted. This makes creating shaker cards super easy and I will be using them loads! On top of this I used the Hello Slim Line Die Cutting System insert. It fits perfectly! The text sentiment is from the Baby Butterfly Beauties stamp and then I used the matching die cut for it. All the gorgeous shaker elements are from the Hop Embellishment Jar. It even has cute little butterflies in it!

Lotv Snowmen buddies

I’m not sure it’s a good idea, but I have actually already started on this year’s Christmas cards and the year is only 8 days old so far! The stamp is called Snow Folk and is by Lili of the Valley.

I had to try making a full panel shaker card again as I recently purchased some easy to use shaker covers by Waffle Flower Crafts. The sentiment is a stamp by MFT Stamps and so is the ink I used. The sequins are by Buttons Galore and more.

Mo’s Peter Pan

It is Wednesday and I’m sharing another card using Mo’s Digital Pencil. I have made something a little bit different this time: a full panel shaker card for a boy! Various distress inks for the background before adding loads of sequins for Peter Pan to enjoy. Hopefully Tinker Bell won’t steal them all before the card reaches its recipient!

The background is made using 4 different distress oxide inks, a splatter stamp and a background stamp both by MFT Stamps. Various sequins were used to fill the card before a cut out Peter Pan was glued to the top with die cut letters and enamel dots both by Altenew filled the space next to him.

Happy 30th

This is the other of the two cards I made for my sister’s birthday this year. I decided it was time to try a full panel shaker card. I’ve seen a few others make these recently so I played around a little bit to see if I could work it out. I think it turned out alright and it’s such a fun card to give away!

The background is made with distress oxide inks and then I used a background stamp from MFT Stamps on the top part of the background in a slightly darker turquoise colour. I used various sequins and blings for the shaker area and then I added a sentiment and a coloured Tiddly Inks image on top.

Crafty Meraki shaker card

It’s Tuesday and time for another Crafty Meraki project. I’ve made another shaker card this week and this time I’ve used the full bigger frame from Frame Worthy slimline dies set. The stamps I decided to use this time is from the Flurry of Love set by My Favorite Things, and I made it with a subtle purple as the main colour. I’ve used nearly all the stamps from said set and masked them together. Then I used the frame to make the shaker area filling it with various sequins in matching colours before adding two sentiments on top.
