To the stamped layer I added the 5” by 3¼” piece of Adhesive Sheet, covering the entire piece. I crumpled up the piece of White Tissue paper, opened it without smoothing it out too much and applied it to the sticky, stamped panel pressing it firmly into place and trimming off the excess. The whole panel was then adhered to the Blackberry Bliss layer.

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.

The floral images were stamped on scrap Basic White card using Pebbled Path ink and coloured using Blending Brushes and the Thankful Garden Masks. For the single flower I used Pretty in Pink for the first and second layers and Petunia Pop for the final detailed layer. For the Hydrangea I used Peach Pie for the first two layers and Timid Tiger for the detail.
