Make a Wish Frameless Shaker Card | Tonic Studios

Hello, my friends, and happy Friday!

If you joined me here for the Tonic Studios Shoot for the Stars Blog Hop, last month, you would have known that I hadn't received the release on time. So now that the products arrived, I have a fabulous shaker card to share with you featuring the Shoot for the Stars Stamp and Die Set!

Fun fact: For those of you that don't know, the new Shaker Creator Pockets from Tonic Studios, came from my idea... Remember my DIY Frameless Shaker Cards, well I showed them to Tonic Studios last year at Creativation and they thought it was a brilliant idea! Fast forward and a little over a year and now everyone can make them. The best part is that they come in many sizes too! If you are looking for the most popular A2 size, Simon Says still has some in stock, just saying 😉 

CARD RECIPE

• I started by creating the background for this shaker card. On watercolor paper, I sprinkled various shimmer powders and then spritzed them down with water. Adding layers of color and allowing the paper to dry in between colors.

• Once dry I then die-cut random stars from the background. 
• I then adhered a piece of silver glitter paper from the SILVER SERVICE paper pad behind the background to make the stars sparkle. 
• Stamp out the sentiments onto the background panel.
• Trim background to fit inside the Shaker Creator Pocket. 

• Fold and secure 3 of the Skaker Creator tabs to the background. 
• Fill the pocket with your shaker bits.
• Seal the last tab.
• Adhere the shaker pocket to a card base.
• Finish by adhering the die-cuts to the front.

Here is a side view. These shaker pockets are so easy to put together, no foam needed!

I hope you were inspired by this Shoot for the Stars creation. I think this would make a wonderful birthday card for someone or even for a friend who needs cheering up.

Below you will find all the links to the supplies I used.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Shoot for the Stars Blog Hop | Tonic Studios

Happy Friday Friends and welcome to the Tonic Studios May 2021 Shoot for the Stars Stamp Club Blog Hop. If you have already joined the hop you should have arrived from Seeka's Blog.  I will link the complete hop list and giveaway details near the end of this post, so stay tuned! 

Unfortunately, my stamps did not arrive on time but the good news is that the Shoot for the Moon set was such a hit that it is being re-released as well! So I have made a Shoot for the Moon Shaker card for today's hop inspiration. If you want more inspo with this set check out this blog post →HERE

Let's take a look at this fun release Shoot for the Stars Set US | UK, this set will coordinate well with the Shoot for the Moon Set. 

The cool thing about these sets is that they come in high-quality plastic sleeves, that are compatible to work with A5 ring binders. How cool is that!? They come in an Orange US|UK or Blue binder US|UK.

Before I get started on the card details, I am so excited to share that my→ Frameless Shaker Cards were the inspiration for Tonic's latest Shaker Pockets US | UK! Make sure to check them out!!! 

They are a complete game-changer in the shaker game and I know a few sizes have already sold out! Luckily, I had some from when they were in the development stage and used it for today's project. They come in many sizes and they have this bundle that includes a bunch of sentiment dies, or you can purchase each size individually →HERE.

CARD RECIPE

 (Ingredients found in Supply List)

• Create your background. I used Atelier Re-Inkers to watercolor my background on Watercolor paper. I also added a layer of Liquid Pixie Dust for added sparkle before adding the splatters. Set aside to dry.
• Die-cut pieces from the Shoot for the Moon scene. Some will be on the inside and some die-cuts will be glued to the outside. I used cardstock from the SILVER SERVICE paper pad US|UK.
• Figure out where you want to stamp out the greeting. 
• Prepare the surface for heat embossing and stamp sentiment. My paper was very textured at this stage and the impression I got wasn't the best. In hindsight, I should have stamped the sentiment before adding all the splatters.
• To the Moon, I attached a clear thread. See the picture below. This will allow for the moon to wiggle a little when the card is being shaken.
• Wrap the thread around the back of the panel and secure the line with a piece of tape. 
• Trim the background to A2 size. You may need to trim it slightly smaller to fit nicely into the Shaker pocket | UK . 

• Place the panel finished side face down onto the shaker pocket. Fold and secure 3 of the tabs to the backside of the panel.
• Fill the shaker pocket with the shaker bits.
• Seal the pocket by gluing down the last tab.
• Attach the shaker panel to the card base using strong double-sided tape.
• Finish the scene by gluing on the remaining die-cuts along the bottom of the panel. This also hides the fact that there are shaker bits inside adding that surprise element.

Here is what it looks like when the shaker bits are hidden.

Here is a video to show you how fun this card is in action!
