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.

The negative die cut panel and the inner pieces from the R and B were then embossed using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder. On the back of the embossed piece, I added one of the pieces of Window Sheet using Mini Glue Dots and the inner pieces were added in the correct places with Mini Glue Dots.

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.

A pretty shaker card made using the hummingbird from the Thoughtful Expressions stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Hummingbird Shaker card – Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop  where we are sharing Shaker cards. I have used the gorgeous Thoughtful Expressions stamp set and dies to make my pretty hummingbird shaker card.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the hummingbird shaker card, you will need:

Pebbled Path card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Pool Party card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Softly Stippled dsp – 5½” by 3¾”
Window sheet – 3⅞” by 3⅞” – I used a cut down Clear Envelope as I couldn’t find my Window Sheet
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

Using a die from the Thoughtful Expressions I cut out a shape from the Softly Stippled dsp. From scrap Basic White card. I taped the same die to the next size up and die cut a frame from scrap Basic White card. The frame was glued to the front of the Softly Stippled dsp using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The dsp was laid over the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card and the sentiment, from the Everyday Details stamp set, was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the Basic White panel, using the die cut panel to get the positioning right.

Using Tear & Tape Adhesive I adhered my square of cut down Clear Envelope to the back of the Softly Stippled dsp behind the die cut shape. I suggest you use Window Sheet……… I couldn’t find mine!

Dimensional Strips were adhered around the negative window on the back of the dsp panel. I also added strips of Adhesive around the edges of the panel to raise it up. The Dimensional strips are slightly higher then our ordinary Dimensionals.

I rubbed my Embossing Buddy over the stamped Basic White panel to remove static and added a pinch of Loose Silver Sequins over the sentiment. I also added a few aqua coloured sequins from my stash. The panel of dsp was then carefully added over the Basic White panel. I pressed firmly to make sure it was well stuck down.

The whole piece was then glued to the Pool Party layer and then to the Pebbled Path card base.

I stamped the hummingbird and single flower in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto scrap Basic White card and coloured both images using the following Blends Pens – Lemon Lolly, Pool Party, Smoky Slate and Pebbled Path. I die cut them out using the Thoughtful Expressions Dies.

The hummingbird was added to the card front using Mini Glue Dots. I added loops of Pool Party Baker’s Twine to the back of the flower, securing it in place with Tear & Tape. The flower was then added to the card front with Mini Glue Dots.

 

A trio of Adhesive Backed Solid Gems completed the card.

Glue the smaller Basic White panel to the Calypso Coral layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. Insert the bottom into the Vintage Bottle Punch as far as it will go and punch through both layers.

Colour the larger flowers using the Petal Pink Stampin’ Write Marker, colour the remaining flowers with a Calypso Coral Stampin’ Write Marker and the leaves with a Mint Macaron Marker. I huffed on the image to re-moisten the ink and stamped onto the punched panel, above the bottle aperture.

We turned the panel face down and inserted the bottle into the negative space. We added a large pinch of the Effervescent bubble to the bottle. We punched another bottle using the same punch from scrap Mint Macaron card and stamped randomly over the bottle with Mint Macaron ink. The stamped bottle was inserted into the panel to close the back.

The whole piece was glued to the Petal Pink card front and Basic Rhinestones added to the largest flower centres.

The sentiment, from the Hydrangea Haven stamp set was stamped in Calypso Coral ink onto the die cut label – from the Hydrangea Dies. It was added to the bottle neck with a White Baker’s Twine Bow.

Using Sweet Sorbet ink, we stamped the smaller bottle across the bottom panel of the card front.

We stamped the smaller bottle onto the Deckled Rectangle in Petal Pink ink. It was stamped again in Calypso Coral ink onto scrap Basic White card and trimmed out with Scissors. The larger bottle was stamped in Sweet Sorbet ink onto scrap Basic White card and punched out using the Vintage Bottle Punch.

The sprig of leaves were then stamped onto the deckled rectangle where the bottles would be placed and the bottles were then added with either Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive or Dimensionals.

The birthday sentiment, from the Go To Greetings stamp set was stamped in Mint Macaron ink at the top of the panel and this was then added to the Mint Macaron panel and then to the bottom panel of the of the card front.

Using a Calypso Coral Stampin’ Write Marker I coloured the larger flowers. The smaller flowers were then inked with a Sweet Sorbet Marker and the leaves with a Mint Macaron Marker. I huffed on the image and stamped onto the smaller Basic White panel.

We repeated this step to add flowers to the other side of the panel. The stamped layer was then added to the Petal Pink panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

A length of 2022- 2024 In Color Twine was wrapped around the panel before it was adhered to the Calypso Coral card base.

The sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set was stamped in Mint Macaron ink onto the strip of Basic White card, added it to the piece of Mint Macaron card and added it onto the card front on Dimensionals.

A bow and a trio of Basic Rhinestones completed the card.

The larger Rococo Rose panel was added to the card front using the same adhesive. Placing the ‘frame’ onto the card front I added the same adhesive to the back of the stamped piece and nestled it inside the frame. The frame was then lifted away abd foam adhesive strips added all round the rectangular aperture making sure to leave no gaps.

A sweet shaker card made using the Magical Mermaid stamp set

Magical Mermaid for a special Shaker Card

Today I am sharing a sweet card made using the Magical Mermaid stamp set. This is a special card for a friend who loves being a mermaid, she has even entered the Miss Mermaid competition and has a fabulous tail. I have used the Inspire Create challenge #047 sketch for this card.

To recreate the Magical Mermaid card you will need;

Coastal Cabana card base – 10” by 5” scored and folded at 5”
Highland Heather cardstock 4¾” by 4¾”
Whisper White cardstock 4½” by 4½” x 3
Window Sheet 4” by 4”
Scrap Whisper White and Shaded Spruce

I sponged Bermuda Bay, Pool Party and Highland Heather inks onto one of the Whisper White panels. I used a little glycerine mixed with the inks to help them blend smoothly. I stamped the sea foliage on the inked panel in Mossy Meadow ink.

I die cut a circle from another of the Whisper White panels and added a piece of Window Sheet to the back using Mini Glue Dots in each corner. I took a dimensional strip and laid it onto the Window Sheet following the die cut circle and making sure there were no gaps. I added apinch of Iridescent sequins to the inked panel and laid the die cut panel over the top to form a shaker card.

This piece was then added to the Highland Heather layer then the Coastal Cabana card base using the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The seaweed was die cut from Shaded Spruce cardstock  and adhered to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.The mermaid was added on Dimensionals and was given a coat of Clear Wink of Stella for an added bit of sparkle. To complete the card front I added a scattering of Iridescent Sequins.

The inside of the card was stamped using the Family Party and Bermuda Bay and Highland Heather inks. I used some retired dsp and the retired Envelope Punch Board to make an envelope.

I really like the colour palette of the card. I hope my friend likes it.
