Flat Donut Shaker Valentine’s Day Card featuring Trinity Stamps

Hello friends. Here is another way to use the new Circle Shaped Card Die Set from Trinity Stamps to make a cute Valentine’s Day card — a flat shaker donut! I love making shaker cards but sometimes they can be bulky. This is a way to keep your card flatter so you can mail it without spending textra on postage. And who doesn’t want to save some money these days?!? Now my shaker pouch puffed a little bit but it’s still flatter than a traditional shaker pouch and I can remedy this next time by using a thinner plastic/acetate.

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″. I also cut a piece of Doodlebug Designs Cream & Sugar 6 x 6 Paper (discontinued?) to 4 x 5-1/4″. Then I ran that through my die cutting machine with an embossing folder from Queen & Company which has tiny open hearts all over it. This was part of a bundle they sold one time. Not sure if they will bring them back.

Next, I made the shaker. I die cut the donut card (or half of it) from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and cut out the center using the frosting die. I colored it using Tim Holtz Walnut Stain and Ground Espresso Ranger Distress Inks. I also die cut the frosting from the Doodlebug Designs Cream & Sugar 6 x 6 Paper. I made the pouch by folding a piece of acetate in half and closing the edges. I added the frosting diecut inside the pouch to cover all the folded/taped acetate edges. Then I filled the pouch with sprinkles I die cut from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and Simon Says Stamp Surf Blue 100lb Cardstock using the Circle Shaped Card Die Set as well as some Sizzix SEQUINS & BEADS – Pinks & Reds, Crimson Sequins.

I stamped a sentiment using onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ Trinity Stamps A-GLAZE-ing 4×8 Stamp Set with Catherine Pooler Designs Rockin’ Red Ink and then cut it down to [x] x [x]”

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of the same pattern papers used on the front to 1 x 5-1/2″ and 1-1/4 x 5-1/2″. Then stamped a sentiment from my stash with Catherine Pooler Designs Rockin’ Red Ink.

Creating a Holiday Shaker Card feat. Catherine Pooler Designs Cookie Sheet Dies

Hello friends. I recently received my Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit Box from Catherine Pooler Designs and am having so much fun making cards. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, in July she released a card kit box that is remeniscent of her old Stamp of Approval boxes that were released quarterly years ago. The theme of the box is holiday baking so it has alot of super cute images and dies. This box also came with a virtual retreat packed full of classes. For my first card I knew I needed to make a shaker card using the cute baking rack in the kit.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/4 x 10-1/2″ and scored at 5-1/4″ to create a card base and another piece to 5 x 5″. I stenciled the backgound using the Catherine Pooler Designs Ditsy Holly Layering Stencil (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) along with Simon Hurley Later Gator Lunar Paste for the leaves and CP Rouge Ink mixed with Modeling Paste for the berries.

For the shaker I die cut the cookie sheet from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the CP Cookie Sheet Dies (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) as well as several of the baking rack (I cut off the grid part so it gave me several borders to stack). I used the direct-to-paper technique with CP Rouge Ink to color the cookie sheet.

I added a piece of acetate behind the baking rack before adding all the stacked frame pieces. I used the CP Bavaria Sequin Mix and Sparkling Sugar Sparkles Glitter by WOW for the shaker bits.

I stamped the cookies using CP Cotton Candy, Gingerbread, and Rouge inks and heat embossed the gingerbread man’s details with White Embossing Powder. For the rolling pin I used CP Grass Skirt Ink and a woodgrain paper from the From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper Pack (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) with the Mix & Bake (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) dies.

I stamped the sentiment from the CP Baking Spirits Bright Stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Midnight Ink and fussycut it before adding it to the card,

I finished off the card by adding some CP Bavaria Sequin Mix.

On the inside of the card I stamped a sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments Stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) with CP Rouge Ink and added another gingerbread man.

Fall Card Series #4: Using Catherine Pooler Fall Frames Two Ways and A Fancy Fold

Hello friends. The next post in my Fall Card series features two cards using the same Frame die in two very different ways. And I also stepped up one of the cards by adding a fancy fold inside the card. The first one is a shaker but it turned out to be difficult to see the shaker bits inside because of the word die I used, so really this one ‘doesn’t ‘need to be a shaker; it could easily be a floating sentiment like the second card.

For the first 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 a card base and a piece of Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″.

I die cut the shadow from the Honey Bee Stamps Large Thanks Dies (retired) and backed it with Acetate to create a window. I die cut the word “thanks” from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″using the same dies. I added Foam Tape behind the panel, added some Appolonia Sequin Mix and backed it with a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ which I colored with CP Green Tea Ink.

Then I die cut the frame 2x from some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames. I stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Thanks Thanks Thanks Stamp Set onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Over Coffee Ink and cut it to 3/8 x 2-1/2″.

I finished off the card by adding some Nuvo Drops in Gloss White.

I left the inside of the card of the card blank and added a piece of Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper measuring 1 x 5-1/2″.

Dimensions


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 a card base and another piece to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″. I die cut the shadow from the Honey Bee Stamps Large Thanks Dies (retired) and backed it with Acetate to create a window. I used the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames to emboss the border on the top panel. Check your embossing machines for the proper sandwich to do this properly.

I die cut the word “thanks” from Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper using the same dies. I added Foam Tape behind the panel and backed it with a piece of green pattern paper from Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper.

I stamped leaves from the Catherine Pooler Designs Leaf Motifs Stamp Set (retired) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Orange Peel, Sauna, Polished, Spiced, Green Tea, and Eucalyptus inks. I don’t have dies for these stamps so I fussycut them all.

I finished off the card by adding some Nuvo Drops in Dark Walnut.

For the inside of the card I decided to step it up and add a fancy fold! I started by cutting a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored it at 2-1/8″, 4-1/4″, and 6-7/8″. Basically scoring it into quarters. Then I adhered I inside the card. I cut 4 pieces of pattern paper from Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper to 2-1/4″ (2) and 2-1/8″ (2). I shaved off about 1/16″ from all the panels so it didn’t interfere with the folds.

I added a border on one of the panels using the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames cut from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″. As well as a stitched rectangle and square to the other panels cut with the Lawn Fawn Small Stitched RECTANGLE Stackables and Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Square Stackables. I stamped the sentiment from Lawn Fawn Thanks Thanks Thanks Stamp Set onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Green Tea Ink and cut to 1-3/4 x 4-1/8″. I also added some more leaves from the Catherine Pooler Designs Leaf Motifs Stamp Set (retired).

Flat Shaker Masculine Birthday Card feat. Lawn Fawn

Hello friends. Here’s a fun flat shaker card that could be for anyone but in keeping with my masculine card series, I think this one would work well for that theme. This is my first flat shaker but it turns out they are actually easier to make than a regular shaker. It’s win win in my book!

For this card, I cut a piece of Lawn Fawn 100lb Black Licorice Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and a piece of Catherine Pooler Designs Arnold’s Drive-In Patterned Paper which I die cut with Lawn Fawn LARGE STITCHED RECTANGLE STACKABLES and inked with Catherine Pooler Oh Boy! Ink to tone it down a bit.

I took a clear bag in A2 size (I used the same ones I use for my finished cards) and slid the panel inside it. I taped the excess plastic on the sides to create a tight fit around the card panel. Next I added a bunch of different sequins and sprinkle shaker bits and sealed the top with more double sided tape.

I die cut the large sentiment from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ as well as Lawn Fawn 100lb Black Licorice Cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Giant Happy Birthday Die. I stamped the rest of the sentiment from the Queen and Company Sentiment Stackers #1 Stampset onto Lawn Fawn 100lb Black Licorice Cardstock with Versamark Ink and White Embossing Powder.

I stamped the balloons from Lawn Fawn Set Elephant Parade Add-On Stampset with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″. I colored them with Copic Markers. I used Y02, Y13 & Y17, BV00, BV13 & BV17, and YG01, YG25, and YG17.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 3-3/4 x 5″ using the Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I also added a strip of the pattern paper measuring 1 x 3-3/4″ and another balloon.

Masculine Birthday Card feat. Catherine Pooler Designs

Hello friends. I don’t often make masculine cards but I thought rather than waiting until I actually need them, I would be proactive and make some ahead of time. Today I am sharing a masculine birthday card using the Catherine Pooler Designs Feelin’ Fizzy stampset. I love this stampset because it’s got a very 1950s feel which makes it perfect for cards for my dad who from that time period. But the images are also just fun to stamp!!

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 a card base, as well as another piece cut to 4 x 5-1/4″.

I added two pieces of pattern paper from the Catherine Pooler Designs Arnold’s Drive-In Patterned Paper cut to 1-1/2 x 5-1/4″ and 1-1/4 x 5-1/4″. I die cut the bottle from the panel then stamped bubbles from the Catherine Pooler Designs Feelin’ Fizzy stampset with It’s a Girl and It’s A Boy (or Oh Boy!-new formulation) inks and sparkles with Shea Butter Ink.

Next, I assembled the shaker element. I stamped the bottle with Tsukineko Stazon Midi Jet Black Ink onto a piece of acetate before adhering using double-sided tape. I stamped the bottle again with Catherine Pooler Designs Midnight Ink, It’s a Girl and Rockin Red inks onto a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″. I added 3M Foam Tape and clear flat sequins and Queen and Company Clear Diamonds Toppings to the shaker bottle.

The sentiment was stamped onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Designs Midnight Ink and die cut with the coordinating dies. The bottle caps were stmaped with Rockin Red ink.

I finished off the card by adding some Milwaukee Sequin Mix.

On the inside of the card I added a piece of pattern paper measuring 1 x 5-1/2″ and another measuring 1-1/8 x 5-1/2″.

Rainbow Birthday Cards feat. Lawn Fawn Giant Outlined Happy Birthday

Hello friends. I’m having more fun today with the Lawn Fawn Giant Outlined Happy Birthday dies. This time I’m using the Portrait die with very simple backgrounds. I’m also turning one into a shaker card. These two cards both feature rainbow backgrounds but in two very different ways.

For the first 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 a card base, a piece Strathmore 100lb Smooth Bristol Paper to 3-3/4 x 5″ for the background, and a piece of Doodlebug FAIRY GARDEN 6×6 Paper to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2.

I stenciled the background using the Lawn Fawn Corner Rainbow Stencils and Tim Holtz Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Broken China, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet Distress Inks. Then added clouds using the My Favorite Things Mini Edge Clouds Stencil and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink.

I die cut the sentiment panel from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Lawn Fawn Portrait Giant Outlined Happy Birthday Die. To finish it off I added some shimmer with the Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pens.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of the same pattern paper to 1 x 5-1/2″ and stamped a sentiment from Catherine Pooler Designs Young at Heart stampset (not available-part of the Stamp of Approval Collections she used to produce) with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

For the second 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 a card base, a piece Strathmore 100lb Smooth Bristol Paper to 4 x 5-1/4″ for the background.

I ink blended the background using Tim Holtz Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Broken China, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet Distress Inks.

I die cut the sentiment panel from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Lawn Fawn Portrait Giant Outlined Happy Birthday Die. I added a piece of Acetate measuring 3-3/4 x 5″ and very thin strips of 3M Foam Tape to the back of the panel to create a shaker. I added some Pretty Pink Posh 4MM Sparkling Clear Sequins and Martha Stewart Sugar Cube Iridescent Hearts & Stars.

2 for 1! Two Cards Using the Positive and Negative With One Die!

Hello friends. I made this cute Easter card using the Lawn Giant Happy Easter die and decided instead of being wasteful, I made 2 cards instead using the positive and negative of the die produces. These giant sentiment dies make great shakers and make an impact on your cards.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 10 x 7″ and scored at 5″ to create a card base and another piece to 4-3/4 x 6-3/4″. I inked the background with Broken China Distress Oxide Ink and sprayed with water.

I die cut the sentiment once from Queen & Company’s Flirty Florals 6 x 6 Mat Stack and 3x from Simon Says Stamp 100# GREEN APPLE Cardstock. I also die cut the grass from the same green cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Grassy Border die and used Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink to add dimension.

I stamped images from Lawn Fawn Eggstraordinary Easter onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Ink. Then colored with Copic Markers. I used R20, C1 and the blender for the bunnies; YG25 & YG17 for the grasses; R81, R83, & R85, Y13 & Y15, BV13 & BV17 for the eggs; W3 & W7, C1 and Y13 for the brush; Y11, Y13 & Y15, E55, E57 & E27 for the paint bucket; YR14 & YR07, R81 & R83, Y13, and Y11 & Y15, B11 & B17, R83 for the butterflies; Y11, Y13 & Y15, YR07, and R20 for the chicks; and Y17, B00, B01, R81 & R85 for the flowers.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from Lawn Fawn Eggstraordinary Easter Add-on stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Ink and added some extra flowers.

For the second card, I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp 100# GREEN APPLE Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base. I also cut down the piece of from Queen & Company’s Flirty Florals 6 x 6 Mat Stack that I die cut the sentiment from to 4 x 5-1/4″. And cut another piece from the same paper stack to 4 x 5-1/4″.

I turned the panel into a shaker by adding a piece of Acetate behind it and adding some 3M Foam Tape and sequins from my stash. I addedsome Love From Lizi Peel-offs in Pink Holographic.

I stamped the images onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ from the Lawn Fawn Eggstraordinary Easter Add-on stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Ink. I colored the images with Copic Markers. I used R20, C1, C3 and the blender for the bunny; YG25 & YG17, YR07 & YR14 for the carrots; and Y11, Y15, & Y17 for the egg.

I added a sentiment from the Simon Says Stamp Sentiment Strips Easter Wishes and added some flowers from the Lawn Fawn Secret Garden Window Dies which i die cut from colored cardstock from my stash.

I finished off the card by adding some White Nuvo Gloss Drops to the egg and Nuvo French Lilac Gloss Drops to the card front.

Combining Dies to Make a Background: Strawberry Jar Shaker Card (feat. Lawn Fawn)

Hi friends. I tried something new with my background dies which gave me a cool 3-dimensional background. I combined the Catherine Pooler Designs Narrow Stripe Cover Plate and the Catherine Pooler Designs Sprinkles Mini Cover Plate to create this fun background. It was super easy. Here’s how I did it…

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create the card base. I also cut a piece of Lawn Fawn Gotta Have Gignham Rainbow 12×12 Collection Pack to 4 x 5-1/4″ for the top panel. I die cut two pieces of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with the frame from the Catherine Pooler Designs Sprinkles Mini Cover Plate (3/4 x 4-1/2″) and then used the Catherine Pooler Designs Narrow Stripe Cover Plate to diecut that piece. Then added every other stripe to the rectangle panel I previously die cut to create a tone-on-tone 3-d effect for my background.

I stamped and colored all my images from the Lawn Fawn How You Bean? and Lawn Fawn How You Bean? Strawberries Add-on stampsets. I stamped them onto some Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Ink. I colored the images with Copic Markers. I used BG000 + 0 for the mason jar and R22, R05 + R27 and YG05 + G07 for the strawberries. Then I die cut all the images using the coordinating dies.

For the mason jar shaker, instead of using foam tape (which would be a slight pain to add due to the small size) I diecut about 7 mason jars from Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock using the Lawn Fawn How You Bean? Shaker Add-on and stacked them. I diecut the acetate piece with the same die set (using the background die included) as well as the backing piece for the shaker which I colored with the same copic markers (BG000 + 0).

For the shaker element, I used Queen & Co Toppings in Pink and Clear Diamonds and some older Martha Stewart Iridescent Hearts and Stars Glitter (no longer available).

For the sentiment, I stamped one from the Lawn Fawn How You Bean? Strawberries Add-on stampset onto some Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Ink and cut it down to 3/4 x 1″ and popped it onto the card using some 3M Foam Tape.

Lastly, I finished it off by adding some highlights with a White Gel Pen. One note: I added the highlights to the strawberries on the inside before adhering it inside the shaker element. I also added some Ruby Slipper Nuvo Glitter Drops to the card.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn How You Bean? stampset with Stampin’ Up! Real Red Ink. I also added a strip of the same pattern paper from the front of the card measuring 1 x 4-1/4″ and adhered 1/2 a strawberry image I had left over.

Strawberry Shaker Card (feat. Lawn Fawn)

Hi friends. I had lots of fun making this cute strawberry shaker card using the Lawn Fawn Outside In Stitched Strawberry Die Cuts and Lawn Fawn Strawberry Patch Die Cuts. I love that this large strawberry die comes with face elements you can add to make it cuter.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create the card base. I also cut a piece of Stampin’ Up! Real Red 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock to 4-1/2 x 4-1/2″ for the top panel. I die cut the strawberry window from the panel using the Lawn Fawn Outside In Stitched Strawberry Die Cuts.

Next, I die cut a ton of the seeds with the same die set from Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock and adhered them around the window. I diecut the leaves from Lawn Fawn Outside In Stitched Strawberry Die Cuts and Lawn Fawn Strawberry Patch Die Cuts from Authentique 6 x 6 Emerald Papers (retired) and added some dimension by coloring them with Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn Distress Oxides Ink. I cut the flowers from Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock and colored the back piece with Lawn Fawn Guava Ink.

Next, I built the shaker element by adding a piece of Acetate behind the window and two layers of 3M Foam Tape behind. I added shaker bits from Queen and Company Fruit Toppings, Pastel Diamonds Toppings, and pink pearls from Bring On Spring Topping Refill. I sealed the shaker by adding a piece of Lawn Fawn 100lb Guava 8 1/2″ x 11″ Cardstock.

For the sentiment, I stamped part of it from the Lawn Fawn HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY Stampset and the rest from Lawn Fawn Simply Sentiments onto some Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Ink and cut them down into strips. To finish off the sentiment, I die cut the word “BERRY” from Tim Holtz Idea-ology 8 X 8 Paper Stash Metallic Jewels Kraft Stock with Honey Bee Tailgate Alphabet Dies. I also added the eyes and a mouth from the Lawn Fawn Outside In Stitched Strawberry Die Cuts which I cut from Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock.

Lastly, I finished it off by adding some highlights with a White Gel Pen.

I left the inside of the card blank.
