A shaker card made for a ruby wedding anniversary using the Party Alphabet Dies, Blooming Phrases stamp set and the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder by Stampin' Up!

Ruby Wedding Card

I made this shaker card to celebrate the ruby wedding anniversary (40th) of my brother and sister-in-law which is today. I made it using the new Party Alphabet dies and the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the ruby anniversary card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card – 8” by 7” scored at 3½”
Season of Elegance dsp – 7¾” by 3¼”
Thick Basic White card – 7½” by 3”
Window Sheet – 7⅜” by 2⅞” x 2
Secret Sea card – 3” by ½”

 

I lined the letters RUBY on the 7½” by 3” panel of Thick Basic White card making sure to get them as straight as possible. I held them in position with small pieces of Washi Tape from my stash and die cut them out. I removed the letters and set them aside as I did not need them for this card, but I did need the inner pieces from the R and the B.

With the whole piece face down, I applied Foam Adhesive Strips around all 4 sides, between all the letters and supporting all the pieces which intrude into the letters. I dropped a pinch of sequins into each letter. I ran a bead of Multipurpose Liquid on top of the Adhesive Strip and added the second piece of Window Sheet overtop to seal the sequins in.

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing a project we have been working on recently. I have chosen to share the card made for my goddaughter’s wedding. The wedding theme was rustic with a touch of dark green so these are the colours I used to make my card.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

To recreate the impressions abloom wedding card, you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” and 2 1/16th
Basic White card – 5⅝” by 1⅞”
Basic Beige card – 5½” by 1¾”
Garden Green card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
Garden Green card – 4¾” by 3½”
Basic White card – 4¾” by 3½”
Basic Beige card – 4¾” by 3½”

I glued the folded back panel of the Crumb Cake card base to the card front.

I stamped the sentiment, from the Lifetime of Love stamp set in Versamark in onto the white oval. I covered it with Copper Metallic Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. The Garden Green stitched frame was then glued around the embossed oval. I added the Basic Beige oval to the back before gluing the oval to the left side of the card front.

On scrap Basic White card, I stamped a selection of the detailed flowers with Crumb Cake ink. I added the flower centres with Versamark ink covered it with Copper Embossing Powder and heat set it. The flowers were then die cut using the Impressions Abloom Dies. I also die cut 5 of the decorative leaves from scrap Garden Green card. I arranged the flowers and leaves around the oval holding them in place with glue or Dimensionals.
