Beach Babies Window Trio Summer Shaker Card with Vanessa

Hi there! Vanessa here today with a CAS shaker card using the adorable Beach Babies set! I love the new Window Trio Square dies and wanted to fill them with sequins for some action.

First, I softly inked the middle portion of a white cardstock panel with aqua ink and applied small ink droplets. Then I die-cut the windows and stamped the sentiment. I created the shaker part, using the die-cut rectangles behind the openings, and adhered the panel to the card base.

Now I stamped the cute images, colored them all with Copics, die-cut them with the matching dies and adhered them to their windows. (I actually colored all the images from the set, if you would like to see them all, please go here).

The new window dies make it so easy to create happy shaker cards! I hope you like today's inspiration! Thanks for stopping by :)

Berry Bliss Single Color Ink Technique Card with Franci

Hi there and happy Wednesday! It's Franci here with you today with a Tutti Frutti card featuring the new Berry Bliss set! The new layering stamp set for this release is all about red fruits - it includes a strawberry, some cherries, a raspberry ( that you can also dress as a blue raspberry!) and a blueberry. Plus some leaves and stems of course!

Guys, it's amazing! The fruits are so realistic and awesome!! So for today's card I added a little challenge, as I created every single fruit with just one ink pad! I do not have lots of colors of dye inks and haven’t had the chance to buy more yet. So for today’s card, I played a little bit with the second generation stamp technique and with my stamp positioner!

First, I created my card base from white cardstock and die cut this beautiful fancy frame out of some kraft cardstock using the new Fancy Frames Rectangle dies. Then I started stamping all of my fruits. I tested the images and my ink out and I finally followed this ultimate scheme (please note: a stamp positioner is not strictly necessary but I highly recommend it if you'd like to use the second generation stamp technique!).

I stamped my lightest images first: 1 +1 second generation stamp (I basically inked up my stamp, stamped onto some copy paper, and then stamped it again onto my cardstock. I did this twice.

Then I stamped the second layer, repeating what I have done previously and for the third layer I inked it and stamped it directly onto the image twice. So my images are basically built by 6 layers of the same color ink. 

For the leaves I had two different greens and for the raspberry I stamped four layers with the same ink - twice on top of the image. I also did the same with my blueberry, but I used a blue ink.

To complete my card I die cut all of my stamped images with the coordinating dies and adhered all of the fruits and the frame with a combo of liquid glue and foam adhesive. Finally, I die cut the “Hello” with the new Hello Word die, and glued it down as well, stamping my sentiment with a black ink.

This card was so much fun to make and I hope it inspired you to create with this new cool set! Have a lovely day!
