What a great challenge we were set this week over at
Sunny Challenges & Creations. All we have to do is create a
Shaker Card - NO layout!!!!! If you are like me, then I haven't created one for so long that I can't remember the last time I did one.
Measurements -
Base Card -
Chocolate Chip - 8 1/4" x 4 1/8" or 21cm x 15cm
Layer 1 -
Cherry Cobbler - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8" or 14.5cm x 10cm

Layer 5 -

Supplies -
Stamp Set - Petite Pairs, Nature Walk
Ink - Chocolate Chip
Cardstock - Chocolate Chip, Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla
DSP - First Edition Speciality
Ribbon - 1/2" Seam Binding - Cherry Cobbler, Crochet Trim - Victoria
Punches - 2 1/2" Circle
Accessories - Snail Adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals, Sticky Strip, Glimmer Brad - Champagne, Glass Stampin' Glitter - Gold (Retired), Stampin' Markers - Marina Mist & Old Olive, Mini Glue Dots
I randomly stamped images over the
DSP with
Chocolate Chip Ink, prior to adhering to the
Cherry Cobbler Cardstock. I ran a piece of Cherry Cobbler Ribbon across the middle, tucked ends under & adhered to the
Base Card with
Snail Adhesive.
For my window, I inked my image with
Stampin' Markers - Old Olive & Marina Mist, stamped direct onto
Very Vanilla, inked my sentiment in Chocolate Chip Ink & stamped onto the same piece of
Very Vanilla Cardstock. I placed my images onto the
Cardstock, so that they would be able to be seen once I had adhered the top piece of
Chocolate Chip Cardstock.
As I didn't have any
Double Sided Mounting Tape, I made my own. I applied
Sticky Strip all around the outer edge of my stamped piece of
Very Vanilla Cardstock, ensuring that all sides were covered. I cut 2 pieces of thick
Cardboard - from the
Glitter Paper - & adhered to the tops of the
Sticky Strip, ensuring that all areas were covered as I didn't want any pieces of the glitter to escape, applied another layer of
Sticky Strip, carefully poured Glitter onto my image - not too much as you don't want it to take over - punched a circle into the middle of the
Chocolate Chip Cardstock with the 2
1/2" Circle Punch, adhered the
Window Sheet to the wrong side & then finally to the top of the
Sticky Strip. I applied
Stampin' Dimensionals to the back of this piece & adhered to the card.
I tied a bow with the
Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding, found 2 small pieces of
Crochet Trim that happen to be in the same container as my
Ribbon & decided to use them as well. A
Glimmer Brad was attached to the middle & finally adhered to the card with
Mini Glue Dots.
We hope you will jon us this week for this fun challenge. Head over to
Sunny Challenges & Creations to chek out what both Kris & Vicki have created, create your project, post to your blog or on line group & then link back with Mr Linky. We would love to see your creation!
Have a great week
We finally managed to create a "Shaker Card" today in Crafty Creations. A lot of laughs & giggles as everyone's was different! Isn't it amazing how we all have the same kit, yet create something entirely different - which I don't mind, as I think it is great that so many people can create a different card from the one next to them.
