Mermaid Shaker Tag

Good morning everyone! Today is my son's 14th birthday and I just finished

making a very masculine fishing vest card, so of course it's time for a real girly card!

I am on the The Rabbit Hole Design's blog today and I have a super sparkly 

Mermaid shaker tag for you using the Mermaid Hair stamp set!

This is one of my favorite stamp sets so far, I just love mermaids and anything

sparkly! I also added in some fun Rabbit Hole sequins that come as free gifts

with your orders.  The colors were my inspiration for this card.

I just love the blue and purple colors together for mermaid cards!

The frame of my tag was made using the Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Dies

from Kat Scrappiness and the Aloha scripty word die is from Lawn Fawn.

I made the background of my tag out of vellum so you could really 

appreciate the sequins! I also stamped 2 of the fish images from the 

Mermaid Hair stamp set in the background for a little extra fun!

Here is another pic with all of the Rabbit Hole supplies used.

Thanks for stopping by today and make sure to stop by The Rabbit Hole Design's blog

 each day to see more projects from the fabulous design team!

SHAKE, RATTLE & ROLL

I'm up on the Kat Scrappiness  blog today and we are going to 

SHAKE, RATTLE AND ROLL!

For those of you who don't know, Kat Scrappiness has a HUGE assortment of 

Sequins and Sprinkles and the collection has recently expanded!

Today I wanted to share 1 card and 3 tags with you using 7 different varieties

of sequins and sprinkles from the shop!

Look at those fun sequins and sprinkles!!  Honestly the possibilities are endless!

Let me show you what I made with those beauties!

The first project is a card I made for my Mom's birthday.

She is a huge fan of cupcakes..... the cuter the better!

The Lawn Fawn Stitched Cupcake Dies were the perfect dies to use for her card.

The Kat Scrappiness Stitched Scalloped Square Dies were the perfect dies to create the 

frame for this shaker tag. For the clear portion behind the frame I used the 

Lawn Fawn Acetate Sheets. Once the frame was made I filled it with the 

Chocolate Cake Sprinkles and the Strawberry Sprinkles from the Sequin Shop.

To complete the sentiment on my card I used the Sweet Word Sentiment Die.

I die cut it out of pink paper and backed it in another layer cut with brown

paper to give it a matted look and make it stand out more.

I loved adding the second layer on the cupcakes to make it look like the frosting

was dripping down.  My mom LOVED her card and I LOVED making it for her!

The next 3 projects are shaker tags that I made using more of the fun 

sprinkles and sequins from the shop. 

Since I couldn't get enough of those cute Lawn Fawn Stitched Cupcake Dies,

I made a tag using the cupcake and I cut the frame out using some Doodlebug

patterned paper from the Stitched Scalloped Nesting Tag Dies.

I stamped the sentiment in pink and yellow ink from the Lawn Fawn Tiny Tag Sayings

stamp set inside my shaker tag. I love how the sentiments are hidden by the shaker bits 

until you shake them out of the way!

For this shaker tag I used the Sweet Candy Sprinkles and the Cupcake Sprinkles to fill it up with.

I also added some Pink Solid Confetti Mix to the outside front of the shaker tag.

The last 2 tags I have to share with you are from a fun planner meet up that my daughter

Taylor hosted recently.  They decided to do a make and take project and thanks to 

Mona Toth, I had the idea to dress up mini mason jar cups with a sweet shaker tag!

You can see Mona's sweet project on Instagram here.

These sweet tags were made using the Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Dies for the frame

and some vellum for the base.  To fill these 2 tags I used some glitter and Watermelon Sprinkles 

on one and some Pink Flower Sprinkles in the other.

To decorate the fronts of these tags I used the Lawn Fawn "Flamingo Together" stamp set

and the Lawn Fawn Aloha Stamp and Die Set for the pineapple and sunglasses.

The girls had a great time making these tags and everybody took their creations home

to enjoy! Here is a link to the Instagram post with all of the pictures from the event.

Here's my little secret....... we had a very dear friend of Kat's at our little meet up

to make a shaker tag and have some fun with us!

My second little secret is that Taylor made the second tag with 

the Pink Flower Sprinkles and she had a lot of fun doing it!

All the girls had a blast using their very own mixture of different sequins and shakers!

WHEW! That was a long post with lots of pictures but I had so much to share

with you!  I hope I have inspired you to do a little 

SHAKING, RATTLING AND ROLLING YOURSELF! 

There are certainly enough shaker bits to choose from in the Kat Scrappiness

store to make some fun and unique projects!

Paper Sweeties March 2019 Release Rewind

Welcome to the Release Rewind for Paper Sweeties!

I hope you've enjoyed all of the inspiration these past few days 

from the talented design team!

We've been sharing our projects using the brand new

Get Well stamp set with matching Sweet Cuts dies.

Today I have a bright and colorful shaker card for you!

I filled my shaker window with several of the tissue boxes

from the new stamp set and lots of fun sequins.

I stamped, colored and cut out the tissue boxes in

rainbow colors so that I could use them inside 

my shaker window. 

The Cupcake Sprinkles sequins were the perfect addition

to this bright and colorful get well card!

The shaker window is made from the largest circle from 

the Sweet Cuts Scallop Circle Frame dies.

Although the Get Well die cut words are hard to see in the 

picture since they are light in color, they really

sparkle in person and look great on the Doodlebug patterned paper!

The paper pad is called Hoppy Easter and is filled with fun

colorful paper perfect for a get well card!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

Make sure you visit all of the other New Release Team members blogs to 

see what they have created for their release rewind projects!

The Rabbit Hole Designs February Guest Designer

Hello and welcome back to my blog!

I am honored to be guest designing for The Rabbit Hole Designs 

for the month of February!

They are a brand new stamp company and they have some very

unique stamps that feature a line of over-caffeinated critters such as

a unicorn, a dinosaur, an octopus and the cat featured on my card today.

Make sure you check them out to see all of their fun stamp sets!

Ok, so if you have your morning cup of java or cocoa or whiskey

or (whatever gets you moving in the morning)... we'll get started!

The new stamps here at The Rabbit Hole are so much fun to create with!

For today's card I am featuring the Caffeinated Cat stamp.
I am LOVING that CRAZY hair and those adorable bunny slippers!

Shaker cards are one of my favorite types of card to make.

Here is the "How To" for my coffee loving feline card:

Card Recipe

• My first step was to stamp the cat in Gina K Amalgam ink and color her with my Zig and Copic markers.
• Next I cut out the stamped image with my Scan and Cut machine.  I love my machine but you could easily fussy cut this image out with scissors.
• The next thing I did was to stamp the caffeine molecule and #momlife stamp randomly on to some polka dot patterned paper for the background. The patterned paper was cut using the largest die from the Kat Scrappiness Wonky Wavy Stitched Rectangle Dies.
• For the top of the shaker I used the Kat Scrappiness Stitched Scalloped Collage Frame die and I adhered a piece of acetate to the back of it. I built the frame up with foam tape so my shaker guts would have room to move around.
• Now for the fun part! I chose a variety of coffee colored sequins from Kat Scrappiness to fill my card with and I made sure to add a splash of teal to match the coffee cup. The sequin mix consisted of Espresso mix, Caramel Latte mix and Teal Jewels. I placed the sequin mix down on the patterned paper in the spots where I knew the windows were in the collage frame and then I adhered the frame over the sequins.
• All that was left was to add my sentiment and cat to the front of the card.  I stamped the sentiment on to some brown card stock with white ink and embossed with WOW bright white embossing powder.  I cut the sentiment into 3 separate strips and popped them up on foam tape. Oh yeah...... kitty got popped up too!😂

Here are some close up pictures to see the details better:

I also have a video for you so you can see how I created

this Caffeinated Cat shaker card.

Please excuse the extreme closeup view in the video,

I have a new camera and I'm still figuring things out.

You can watch the video here or on YouTube.

Thanks so much for joining me today!

I really enjoyed sharing my card and video with you.

Heart Shaker Card

Hi everyone! I'm up on the blog again at Kat Scrappiness today to bring you a pretty little shaker card!  I have the privilege of introducing some new products that are available in the 
shop this month. 
One of the products is a set of nested Stitched Scalloped Heart dies and the second product is a set of Stitched Scalloped Border dies. I'm just loving the combination of the scallops and the stitching together!  I used the Stitched Scalloped Border dies to cut some white card stock and I popped it up on foam tape over the patterned paper on the bottom of the card front.  

I made a shaker element out of the Stitched Scalloped Heart dies and filled it with a combination of the 4 mm Sparkling Clear Solid Confetti Mix and the 3 mm Transparent Coral Hearts.

There are over 400 sequin mixes in the Kat Scrappiness shop to choose from so you can go shaker card crazy!

Shaker cards are so much fun to make, I hope you'll give one a try and thanks for stopping by!

Altenew January Inspiration Challenge

I'm back again today with another gorgeous floral Altenew creation for the January Inspiration Challenge.

I had forgotten how much I love the Painted Flowers stamp set.  I really need to keep that set on my desk and use it more.  I made a shaker card today using on of the pretty roses as a background under the shaker bits.  This card is really over the top with glitter paper and lots of sparkly sequins but I love how it turned out!

For some reason I had a very hard time photographing this card, I just couldn't get it bright enough.  Maybe it was the glitter paper but it was not cooperating with the camera at all!  

I used the painted Happy Birthday die from Simon Says Stamp and some gorgeous sequins from Kat Scrapiness.  Ok since I work night shift I really should go take a nap now.  It's hard to pull myself away from my craft room!

Have a great day everyone!

I already am!

Kat Scrappiness January Challenge

Good morning crafty friends! I work the night shift at the hospital and although I come home exhausted in the morning sometimes I just want to make a card before I go to sleep.  This morning I thought I'd play along with the Kat Scrappiness January challenge.  Kat Scrappiness is an online store that sells lots of crafty goodness like stamps, dies, ink and so much more!  There is also a great assortment of sequins that I love!  The January challenge is to create a clean and simple project.  I chose to make a 4 1/4" square card using Kat's Stitched Fancy Scalloped Square Die and a few sequins from the Barbie Sequin Mix.  I used a "hello" word die from MFT and cut it out of the front panel and then I backed it with some beautiful patterned paper from Bella Blvd.  I popped the panel up with a large foam square to give it some dimension.  I really love how the card came out.  I have to admit it's hard not to go overboard with embellishments and color but the clean and simple look is very appealing!  Hope everyone is enjoying their new year so far!

Here is my card for today:

Have a great day everyone!

I already am!
