Circle Shaped Shaker Thank You Cards


Hello friends!

Hope you all are enjoying the beautiful Summer weather 😎Unfortunately my time outdoors has been limited as I have been suffering from really bad seasonal allergies. So weird, because I have never had this issue before 👎Thank goodness for allergy medication!

Anyways, my cards today were inspired by the summer season. I wanted to create some bright and colorful flowers for my cards and though the coloring is a little more artistic vs. realistic I still feel like they look very summery to me.

To create my cards, I first stamped out the spring blossoms using Juicy Ink and heat set it using white embossing powder. Next, I colored the images in using Tombow Dual Brush Pens. This coloring was truly an experiment as I have never done anything like this before and I was really excited on how it turned out! I need to give Alex from Alexsyberia credit, who totally inspired me to step out of my comfort zone. Her cards are GORGEOUS and her coloring is so unique. Follow her on →Instagram, for more inspiration!

Now to create the actual circle shaped card, I cut out the card base by using the Donut Card dies. I then cut out the colored cardstock with the circle die from the same donut set and glued it to the top of the card front.

Next, I used the two largest Double Stitched Circle Dies and die cut the frame for the shaker front of the card. I then added the acetate to the frame and built it up with foam to create the space for the shaker bits. To the first card, I added I then added a mix of the Aurora Light, Shooting Star Confetti and heart sequins. For the second card, I just left out the Shooting star mix.

I then finished off the card fronts by adding the Spring Blossom flower clusters and the layered Large Thanks dies.
