How To Create A Double Heart Shaker Card With ScraPerfect

Hello all

I have a card to share today. I used Best Glue Ever to glue the embellishments and shaker boxes together.

http://scraperfect.com/product/best-glue-ever/

Start off by cutting out one large heart from patterned paper using a nesting die. Then one  from acetate for the top. Place a smaller heart die into the centre of the larger heart and secure with washi tape. Cut out two or more from craft foam. This depends on how deep you want the shaker boxes. Cut a frame from patterned paper.

Repeat the steps using a smaller pair of nesting dies and then glue the foam frames together before gluing to the base. once the glue has set, fill the boxes and then glue the top on. Add the frame cut from pattered paper over the top to cover the glue up.

Cover a blank card with paper and then stamp a texture stamp around the edges and in the centre. Glue down the shaker boxes.

Decorate with charms and flowers which were inked with bronze mist spray.

Hi all

I have a card made using the Tell The Bess collection.

Cover a 5 x 7 blank card with Tell The Bees Patterened paper.

Cut  a large rectangle out of gold honeycomb paper using a nesting die and glue to the edge of the card. Leave rougthly a 5 mm gap so that the bottom layer firms a frame.

Cut another smaller rectangle out and glue across the card. Add matching ribbon and trim to fit. 

To create a shaker box, take any nesting die of yout choice and take the largest size and place the next size down inside to make a frame. Secure with tape and then cut out one frame from foam and one from paper. If you want a deeper shaker box then cut a few extra foam frames and glue them together.

Seperate the dies and then using the largest size. Cut out a base from patterened paper and a top out of acetate.

Glue the foam frame to the base and leave to dry before adding sequins. Then glue the acetate frame to the top and once dry add the frame cut from pattetened paper. Glue this to the edge of the paper layers.

How To Create A Stunning Summer Shaker Card

Hi all

Today i have a fun summer themed shaker card to share today. The papers are from the Summer Feelings collect avalible from Cherish the memory.

Start off by covering a 6 x6 card with blue paper and then half the card with the wood effect paper.

To create the shaker box you just need a set of nesting dies. Choose the size you want the box to be and pop the smaller nesting die inside the larger one to make a frame. Cut out two frames from paper and craft foam. If the craft foam is a distracting colour you can paint over it with acrylic paint.

Next cut out a sheet of pattetened paper for the base using the largest die and again out of acetate for the window.

Glue the craft foam frame to the base and leave to dry before adding micro beads and glitter shapes.

Seal the bax with the acetate top and once that has dried, add the frame cut from pattetened paper.

Adhere the bix to the catd and then glue cheese cloth around it like a frame.

Add micro beads, craft stones and die cuts around the cheese cloth frame.

You can leave the chese cloth as it is or dab blue ink over it to add a bit of colour. I used watered down acrylic paint on mine.

How To Create A Fearsome Frost Dragon Shaker Card

Hello crafty friends

I have made up a shaker card using the Frost Dragon image by Rick St Dennis. All images are available on Zibbit.  https://www.zibbet.com/rick1949/frost-dragon-2-digi-stamp

To create the background i stamped around the card blank with a texture stamp in blue and then added brusho powder over the top. I cut up dry wall tape and painted it metallic blue and then i added a stencil over the top.

To create the shaker box

1) Cut out the base with a large nesting die.

2) Cut out a piece of acetate from the same sized die.

3) Place a smaller die inside the large die and hold into place with tape.

4)  Now you have a frame, Cut out one from patterned paper and one from craft foam.

5) Glue the frame created with the craft foam to the base and once dry add beads and sequins.

6) Glue the acetate over the top and leave to dry.

7) Glue the frame cut from the patterned paper over the acetate and once dry adhere to card.

I coloured in the image using Prima Confectionary Watercolors and a water pen. I like the even amount of colour using them gives and i can still add shading if needed.

 I stamped around the frame with the texture stamp to give it a more grungy look.
