My Otter Half Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and since it had been a while I decided to make a fun shaker card! The focal point of this project is an adorable couple from the My Otter Half stamp and die set.

For today’s card I made a white square card and added a teal layer cut from one of the Sweater Weather papers. Yes, this is a Fall themed paper pack but I feel the darker teal is a great match for my cute brown otters (also very snug and cozy, I made this card on a rainy day in Spring, hence the need to feel that way!).

After cutting the panel with the second largest of the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies, I created the shaker window with one of the Stitched Circle Small dies.

A piece of clear acetate slightly smaller than my teal piece was glued to the back with strong double sided tape. Next, I created the shaker well with thick strips of foam tape, I removed the protective backer first to add the tape as close as possible to the circle shape.

Now comes the fun part, which is filling the shaker with sequins in clear and teal colors. to close the shaker, I simply added a square piece of teal paper to back. I glued this whole piece to the card base with liquid glue.

My cute couple from the My Otter Half stamp was colored with Copic markers in shades of brown. The sentiment was taken from the Words Of Gratitude set and stamped on a scalloped white banner with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

I placed this banner on the bottom edge of the shaker and added the cute couple so their tails overlap with the white sentiment strip. This connects the elements of this design in a fun way.  Of course this card needed a bit of bling so I sprinkled a few Aquamarine Jewels around the shaker frame.

This set is so cute and I am sure you will make the most adorable cards with these otters! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!
