Hello! It's Rachel here and I have a fun double layer shaker card
to share with you today featuring the new Feeling Frosty Stamp Set!
I love shaker cards and making them double layered adds twice the fun because
it adds room for some dimension.
The Feeling Frosty Set is filled with the cutest snowmen! I started my card by
stamping my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and
coloring them with Copies. I used the coordinating Feeling Frosty Dies to cut them out. For my background, I trimmed a piece of
Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and blended it with some Mermaid Lagoon
Distress Oxide Ink. I then splattered this piece with some water to give the
blending some texture.
Once dry, I then splattered it generously with some diluted Opaque White Paint to resemble falling snow. Once my background was ready, I added a few pine trees and a stitched snow drift using the Woodlands Border Die Set and some white card stock. Since this was my bottom layer, I adhered these pieces with liquid adhesive directly to my ink blended background.
I then liberally added some chunky white glitter to this first layer and used .25" wide 3D Foam Tape and a piece of clear acetate to seal it off. Once this layer was secure, I started to work on my second layer. I added another stitched snow drift to this layer once again using the Woodlands Borders Die. I glued this piece directly to the acetate below it. I also did the same with my snowmen and gift images.

I then repeated the same process with adding some chunky white glitter, foam tape, and acetate to this second layer. I used less glitter on the second layer so that it wouldn't cover my snowmen too much when laying flat.
To finish off my card, I added a thin white white frame to which I had attached a gorgeous frame of garland in white using the new Christmas Garland Frame Die. I love the final effect!
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today! If you want a good video tutorial for this type of technique, check out THIS video by Jennifer McGuire. Have a lovely weekend!

It's Friday and I wish you all a crafty weekend ahead! Candice here and can I tell you how excited I am to be sharing my first official post with you on the Sunny Studio's Design Team?! Just look at how cute this new Holiday release is!
I truly love how Sunny Studio stamps
sets can easily be combined! For this card, I used:
- Feeling Frosty stamp set
- Feeling Frosty coordinating
dies
- Scenic Route stamp set
- Scenic Route coordinating dies
- Fall Kiddos stamp set
- Fall Kiddos coordinating dies
- Layered Snowflake Frame die (snowflakes)
- Woodland Borders die (snowhills)
- Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 paper
I began my card by creating an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base which
fits perfectly into the size 9A envelopes.
I first stamped the snowmen, houses & kiddos, colored them
with Copic markers, and used the coordinating dies listed above for each
set. I then heat embossed the sentiment in silver
and trimmed to a banner.
For the background, I inked the sky using peacock feathers, tumbled glass & shabby shutters, gluing the houses right at the green glow. Next, I created my snowhills from the AMAZING new Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 paper. I know I will be going back to this pack often, so many possibilities with this set!

To put the card together, I layered the snowhills and pop
dotted the images along them, adding the sentiment along the
bottom. For the final touch, I added a bit of sparkle with some glitter snowflakes.
