Shop Your Stash: Flat Shaker Using Older Stamps feat. Catherine Pooler Designs

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. Continuing on my quest to make birthday cards and give new life to some older supplies, I made this flat shaker. I pulled out some older Catherine Pooler Designs stampsets for this one and combined it with some modern elements like the flat shaker to create a fun interactive card!

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create the card base and another piece to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″.

I stamped one of the graphic images from the Catherine Pooler Designs Perfect Blend Stampset (discontinued) with Catherine Pooler Designs Sand Castle Ink and then ink blended the background to create a gradient with Catherine Pooler Designs Sand Castle Ink and Catherine Pooler Designs Over Coffee Ink.

I adhered the panel to one of the Trinity Stamps A-2 Card Flat Acetate Shaker Pouches. You must adhere three sides first, add your sequins then seal the fourth side. I used Honey Bee Stamps Freshly Brewed Sequin Mix, as well as some aqua and yellow ones from my stash.

I stamped the coffee cup, graphic image, and beans from Catherine Pooler Designs Perfect Blend Stampset (discontinued) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Designs Hot Tub and Over Coffee Inks. I stamped the diagonal stripe piece from Catherine Pooler Designs For Everything Stampset (discontinued) with CP Sauna Ink.

I cut out a circle from Vellum using the Stampin’ Up! Layering Circle Dies. And stamped a sentiment onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ from Catherine Pooler Designs For Everything Stampset (discontinued) and Honey Bee Stamps Mini Messages: Birthday Stampsets and fussycut around it. I used some Foam Tape to pop up the coffee cup and some of the beans.

I left the inside of the card blank and added the same diagonal stripe piece from Catherine Pooler Designs For Everything Stampset (discontinued) which I stamped with Catherine Pooler Designs Hot Tub Ink. I also added some beans.

I have been an avid crafter for two decades and started card making about fifteen years ago and just fell in love. It started as something to reduce stress but now it’s something I can’t live without. It’s so much fun to play with ink and paper and end up with something pretty cool that you can share with someone else. I love the fact that something that brings me so much joy can bring happiness to others too.
i am a wife and mother to two sweet fur babies, Cola and Bailey, that love to hang around while I craft. They bring me just as much joy as crafting. I couldn’t imagine my life without either!
