Hello, Miss Ink friends!! I hope your week is off to a great start!! I have another edition of Step Up Your Cardmaking to share with you today!! This one is one of the best ways to "step-up" a card design...make it into a shaker!! Everyone LOVES a shaker card!!
This card took many different turns until I got to the finished cards!! Sometimes things come together easily and sometimes it's a struggle...lol!! You will see some things in my photos that I didn't end up using and will save for future projects.
I began by stamping the images from Painting the Roses onto white cardstock, colored them with Copics and fussy cut them out. I used the following Copic colors: RV69, RV29, RV14, RV13, YG17, YG13, YG03, N5, N3, N1, N0, E39, E37, E35.
Â
I trimmed a panel of red cardstock slightly smaller than A2 size. I also die-cut a white frame with a pierced rectangle die.
Â
For the background, the Queen's Castle image was white heat embossed onto the panel of red cardstock.Â
Â
The sentiment, also from Painting the Roses, was white heat embossed onto black cardstock. The cards were assembled as shown, adding acetate and popping up the frame with a double layer of foam adhesive for the shaker. Painted Roses embellishments were used for the shaker portion and a few were added around the sentiment on the non-shaker card.
Thanks so much for stopping by today!! I hope that I've inspired you to give a shaker a try to step up your cardmaking!!
