Hello
friends! It's Juliana Michaels and today I'm sharing a festive shaker card I
created using the new stamp set called Here Comes Santa and the Fancy Frames Rectangle dies.
I began by cutting a piece of double sided foam
adhesive with the smallest frame die from the Fancy Frames Rectangle die set. I
then used it to cut a piece of pink polka dot paper from the Holiday Cheer 6x6 paper pad. Next, I cut a piece of acetate to just smaller than the opening on
the frame and adhered it to the top of the die cut foam frame. I then adhered
the pink polka dot frame on top of the acetate to complete the shaker box.
To create the background of the shaker card, I
cut a piece of Bristol smooth paper to just smaller than the die cut frames and
inked it with Distress Oxide in Salty Ocean and Blueprint Sketch. I then
lightly splattered it with water and dabbed it dry with a paper towel. I love how
this gives you the look of falling snow! Next, I took Ranger archival ink in
black and stamped the trees along the bottom edge and the Santa with his
reindeer across the top. I curved the stamp just slightly to give it a more
animated feel. After the background was complete, I filled the shaker box with
a mix of sequins and beads. I then adhered the background to the back side of
the shaker box to complete the shaker.
For the card front, I again used some patterned
papers from the Holiday Cheer 6x6 paper pad. To keep the patterns and colors
from competing with the shaker box, I used a grey snowflake pattern behind the
shaker and then added a striped pattern to the edge to add in a bit more color
and balance the shaker box.
