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!

Dec 1st shaker card Save

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!  

Here are a few I made:

Wonder of the Season all. Save

Remember I only used three products on these!  All you need are the cards (seen here) and the cards & envelopes (seen here) and Red Rhinestones.

Wonder of the Season Save

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!

  • Christmas card swaps!

    I love sharing the cards my Flowerbug's make for our Team swaps.  We had a great turnout for the October meeting and swap. 

    Marilyn made this first card using the Welcoming Woods stamp set.  Her colors are Soft Succulent, White & Evening Evergreen.

    Oct Evergreen Marilyn Save

    Products used are all from the 2021-22 Annual Stampin' Up! catalog:

    • Wintry 3D embossing pair seen here
    • Hippo & Basic Border dies
    • Tidings of Christmas 6 X 6" DSP 
    • 2021-23 In Color Shimmer Vellum
    • Soft Succulent ribbon

    And here's the inside. She punched a strip of Evening Evergreen CS with the Evergreen Border punch and then textured it with the Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder!

    Next is a card made by Paula featuring the Tidings & Trimmings bundle in the Annual catalog.  

    Oct Evergreen Marilyn Save

    Her colors include Real Red, Evening Evergreen & White. The star is cut from the Be Dazzling specialty paper in the previous Sale-a-Bration catalog. 

    I love how she wove the ribbon through the scalloped openings in the die-cut.  This die is from the Scalloped Contour dies seen here.

    Next is a pretty card made by Mary featuring the Evergreen Elegance stamp set; also in the Annual Catalog.  

    It's a fun fold card where you fold back the front flap of the card.

    The designer paper is also the Tidings of Christmas and that nice large White die-cut is from the Seasonal Labels dies seen here.  They coordinate with the wonderful Christmas Season stamp set.

  • Nature’s Harvest card with embossed vellum

    I just realized I hadn't shared this pretty card we made in September at my Card Clubs.  It features the Nature's Harvest bundle seen here in the 2021 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog. 

    Nature's Harvest August Club Save

    The colors include Bumblebee, Just Jade, White, Gold & Vellum. When I use vellum I always think 'Why don't I use it more?'  It can be the perfect layer without adding 'too much'. 

    Details:

    • The Vellum card stock is embossed with the Timber 3D embossing folder.
    • The coneflowers are colored with Stampin' Blends markers. 
    • That glitzy wheat stalk is part of the Harvest dies and from the Be Dazzling specialty paper that was available during Sale-a-Bration. 
    • The greeting is from the Delicate Dahlias (Sale-a-Bration) stamp set on a Tasteful Label die-cut 

    Nature's Harvest Save

    Measurements:

    • Bumblebee card stock 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
      • Vellum CS 3 3/4" X 5"
      • White scraps for circle, greeting and flower
      • Be Dazzling paper scrap for stems
      • Penguin Playmates DSP 1 1/2" X 4 1/4"

    We're making these pretty cards tonight on FB Live 'Stamp with Me'.  It's at 7:30 pm CT here.

    It's actually a gatefold card but the front panel is a piece of designer paper that leaves a reveal of the right edge of the card base which is textured. 

    For these two cards I chose to use the In Good Taste DSP (Annual Catalog on the left) and Cork paper on the left from the Holiday catalog. 

    Or see it on my YouTube channel here on Tuesday.
