Wow, can you believe it is February already? You know what that means? Yes, the new Spellbinder Club Kits are now available!
My Rainbow Scalloped Glimmer Shaker Cards today feature the new February's Glimmer of the Month Kit called Scalloped Rectangle Glimmer Essentials with Sentiments. It includes 6 scallop frames and 3 sentiment plates for foiling.
CARD DETAILS
Let's start with the largest shaker. Like any other foiled card, these cards require a GLIMMER HOT FOIL SYSTEM, (so I won't go into the how-to foil as there are many tutorials out there).
The frame for this shaker was created by first foiling the largest Scalloped Frame from the Kit using the AURA Glimmer Foil onto an A2 size cardstock panel. I then used the largest two rectangle frames from the RECTANGLE ETCHED DIES to die cut it out. To the back of the frame, I glued the acetate to create the window for the shaker. Along the outer edge, I added foam tape and then set it aside to work on the background. (This process will be repeated for the other cards using different shaker window sizes).
The leafy designs come from an older Glimmer of the Month kit called Crimson Fall. I foiled the design on using the same AURA Glimmer Foil. I then used Distress Oxide Inks to blend out the rainbow colors.
Next, I added the sequins to the shaker window and sealed the shaker with the colorful rainbow background that was trimmed to the frame size.
To finish off this card I then just added the foiled Thank You Sentiment to the center of the window.
For my second card, I foiled all 3 frames onto the bottom panel. Since this card was going to be using the Birthday Sentiment, I thought it would be fun to blend out a few colorful balloons. I used sticky notes to cut out and create some stencils and then used distress oxide inks to blend out the colors.
The shaker window was created the exact same way as the first card was only using smaller frames. I used the middle frame on the background as a guide for the window shaker placement.
For the sentiment, this time I foiled it onto vellum using the same AURA Glimmer Foil.
This third and final card turned out pretty cool.
To make it, I foiled the same large frame twice, positioning the plates so that the frames were horizontal on the vertical card front. This then created the 4 horizontal lines across the card panel.
Once again the shaker window was made the same as the first one, only this time using the smallest frame.
The Hello Sentiment was foiled once I had blended out the rainbow background and then used to close out the shaker window area. It was then glued in the center of the card front.
I honestly couldn't tell you which one of these 3 cards was my favorite because I love them all! I hope you did too and found some inspiration from them.
Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
