Easiest Shake Card Ever; plus the quickest Christmas cards you can make!!
Have you wanted to make a shaker card but didn't want to deal with the Foam Adhesive and window sheets? Well I have a solution for you! Use a clear envelope! Yes; it works beautifully!
I used one of the Wonder of the Season cards, cutting it down to 4" X 5 1/4" and adding another layered strip. I then inserted it into one of our clear envelopes (seen here) and folded the excess to the back, securing it with Tear & Tape. Then I added some Sequins for Everything and sealed it up. It's adhered to a Real Red card base and the greeting is adhered to the front.
The stamps are from the Tag Buffet stamp set.
You can watch how I did this in the video below; it's one of the first projects.
In the video I also shared the Wonder of the Season Memories & More projects. These cards are beautiful and filled with gold & red foil accents. I love these because they are super quick & easy! All I added were some Red rhinestones! No stamping or extra card stock!
You can use the 3 X 4" cards for the pretty card bases so the foil accents show. Or flip the front to the inside and use the larger 4" X 6" cards on the front. This way you can still see that pretty foil on the inside!
Textures & Frames; who knew you could create such fun & variety?!
At first this stamp set baffled me; what would I do with it? Well leave it up to the creativity of others to spark my own! I got some ideas online and all of a sudden I couldn't stop!
I shared all of these cards and tips on making them on this week's Tuesday FB Live. Look!
The card above is my favorite. It truly makes me smile! That sentiment is from the In Your Words stamp set in the back of the Sale-a-Bration catalog. It's free with a $300 order through Sept 30th. See it here.
You may wonder how I achieved that perfectly shaped smile on these faces. I searched all of my stamp sets for a circle shape and found one in the cat in the Cute Halloween set. Watch the video here or seen below to see how I did it. The eyes are clear rhinestones colored Black with my Blends marker. The colors are Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green, Fresh Freesia and Pacific Point.
In the video I also share a neat tip on getting a smaller Postage shape from our Rectangular Postage Stamp punch.
If you love quirky and unique get this while you can. This fun Textures & Frames stamp set is free with a $50 through the end of September. *stock up on your favorites and earn it free!

This next card uses the same solid circle image to create a colorful background for the nice, large greeting in the Thinking, Thanks & Peace stamp set. I also used the Basic Border dies to create the eye catching rick-rack border trim.
The die-cut swirl is from the Painted Labels dies and again the greeting is from the In Your Words stamp set.

I was inspired by the card on the lower right (seen by other Demo's) to create one with TALL candles! I used my Stamparatus for both of these cards! Watch how in the video below or click here.
The greeting is from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set. I love how easy you can create a masculine card with this unique stamp set!
Don't miss out if you want this set! It's unavailable after Sept 30th! You'll also get 10 free hand-made cards from me with a $50 order! Details are below.
The pumpkin, ghost & cat are punched with the Halloween punch directly from the Cute Halloween designer paper seen here. This punch is on back order until October 11th. But you CAN still order it.
I really like how she added different patterns & textures behind each window from the Picture This die cut seen here. And that peak of the black & white dsp behind it all really sets off the fun colors.
Next is a cute card made by Candy using the Clever Cats stamp set. See it here.
That cat peeking from behind the pumpkin is adorable. Her colors are Rich Razzleberry, Black, Mossy Meadow, Pumpkin Pie & White. Other products she used here are:
I love using non-traditional colors for Fall. I used Cajun Craze, Bermuda Bay, Vanilla and Crushed Curry. We stamped the images and then added texture with the Timber or Timeworn Type 3D embossing folders.
