You're So Playti-rific Partial Shaker Card ft. Playti-rific Pondies Stamp Set from Ink On 3


Hello Friends!
The snow is all gone, there are puddles everywhere and the sun is shining... finally Spring has arrived here 🙌 It feels almost as warm as today's card looks!

Today I have another card to share with you featuring the Playtirific Pondies Set from Ink On 3.
These little critters are so cute I had to use them again on another card. This time I wanted to create a shaker card.

You're So Playti-rific Partial Shaker Card by Ilovedoingallthingscrafty

For this card I had planned on creating a process video, but sadly lost some of the footage. So I will explain the process to you below. For now I have included a very short clip here so you can see it up close and in detail!



The first thing I did was stamp out the critters using Blackout Ink (my new favorite). I then colored them in using Spectrum Noir markers and die cut them out using their coordinating dies. Next, I moved on to the front panel.

To create the pond shaker area, first I used the second largest balloon die from Simon Says Stamp to die cut the pond shape on the right edge of the panel. I then lined up the die cut panel onto the card base to use as a guide and die cut the base. The balloon end will cleverly be hidden behind the duck so you would never know it was a balloon die you used to cut out the pond. I then used distress oxide inks to blend out the area along the pond. Once that was done blending,  I stamped out the pond plants along the edge of the water and colored them in.

To create the shaker pocket, I used a clear cello bag (the kind you use to store the finished cards in) trimmed it to size, and adhered it with the finished bottom edge of the bag along the open edge of the card base. I then filled the pocket with sequins and glued the opening of the bag shut. Next, used foam tape along the edge of the pond to create a rim for the top panel to adhere to and to keep the sequins in place. There still was some areas that the sequins snuck into under the panel, so if you want to avoid that I would trim the bag all the way around the pond and use some double sided tape to close it together.

Once the top panel was adhered to the card base I added the critters in place with some foam tape. For the sentiment tag, I stamped the words out with Salty Ocean distress oxide ink and heat set it with clear embossing powder. The last thing I did was add some blue cardstock to the inside of the card and adhered it under the front panel. This did not only add color to the pond but it also hid the balloon end from being seen on the inside of the card.

Here is a closer look at this cuties 😍

Surprise Slider Birthday Celebration Card for Honey Bee Stamps 3rd Anniversary


Hooray!
And Happy Birthday to Honey Bee Stamps 🎂🎈

This week is Honey Bee Stamps 3rd Birthday Anniversary Celebration, and to commemorate the occasion I thought it would be fun to create a surprise slider birthday card.

See the "PULL"↓  ... yup, go ahead and do it!
Surprise Slider Birthday Celebration Card for Honey Bee Stamps 3rd Anniversary by ilovedoingallthingscrafty

When you "PULL" the balloon cluster up you will find a Happy Birthday Hooray! from the Honey Bee Forest friends. Who btw, have been quietly hiding in the cardboard box.
So fun, I just love interactive cards!

I really had fun coming up with this design and learned a lot from the mistakes I made during this process. I'm not going to go into great detail on the how to's here because there is a video to explain, and the write up would be fairly lengthy. I do share my mistakes so you can learn from them, and tell you what I would do differently to correct them incase anyone would like to create something similar. You will find the links to the products and supplies I used below in this post as well as in the video description on YouTube.

Click →HERE to watch in HD!

To color my background and balloons I used distress oxide inks that resulted in this pale rainbow palette.

I added glossy accents to the Hooray sentiment for added dimension and love how it made it pop!
Isn't this balloon cluster so dreamy!?!😍

To the inside of the card I used the same 3 oxide colors that I had used on the front panel to stamp out the happy birthday sentiment. I added the fossilized amber ink last to the other two colors to end up with a blended stamped look just to bring all the colors together.
