Happy Birthday Slimline Shaker Card | Studio Katia

Hello, my Friends and Happy Wednesday!

I have a fun Birthday Slimeline shaker card to share with you all today. I love making slimline cards and since this is a birthday card, I thought making it interactive would be fun for the recipient.

CARD DETAILS

To begin I stamped the cute little MINI BIRTHDAY CAKE and die cut it using the coordinating MINI BIRTHDAY CAKE DIE. I then colored the image in using Copic Markers.

The next step was to die cut all the pieces for the shaker card. I first die cut the larger frame from the DOTTED SLIMLINE - SET 2. I then die cut the center of the panel using the oval dotted frame from the DOTTED SLIMLINE - SET 1. Behind the slimline panel, I glued a piece of acetate cut large enough to cover the window. To line the perimeter of the oval opening I used FOAM TAPE that I cut to about half of the width.

On the slimline card base, I glued a piece of rainbow pattern paper from the BLACK, WHITE AND RAINBOW PAPER pack. Since the slimline is longer than the papers, I just extended the pattern by adding another piece of the same pattern that I cut to fit the card base. I then added the VANILLA LUSTER FUSION sequins to the center of the pattern paper and carefully lined up the front panel to create the shaker.

Next, I die cut the Birthday letters using the CHUNKY ALPHABET dies and added small pieces of BLACK FOAM to the back of each letter to add a bit of dimension and then attached them to the card front.

In place of the "A", I just added the cute little birthday cake that I had previously colored. I also added the "happy" sentiment that comes from the HAPPY CELEBRATIONS set that I heat embossed in white on black cardstock and then fussy cut.

To finish off this fun and festive slimline birthday card, I glued on a few rainbow-colored pearls. See links below for the ones I used. 

I hope this card inspired you today. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting 👋

Cheers to 70 Years | Frameless Shaker Birthday Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello Friends and Happy Monday!

Today I have another Frameless Shaker Card to share with you. We have a ton of birthday celebrations and this during the summer and this year I needed to make a special one for my God Father who turned 70. You can change up the colors, the year, and customize a card like this for any occasion.

CARD DETAILS

I began by stamping out the images from the RAISE A GLASS stamp set onto the background using Blackout Ink. I then used Ateliers Inks (see links below for colors) to add color to the background.

Next, I cut a piece of acetate to 4.75 x 6 inches. I then centered the panel on the acetate, this will leave you with a 1/2 inch around the perimeter of the card panel to score and fold. I cut off the corners to make the folding easier. To the backside edges of the panel, I added Scor-tape to secure the flaps in place. Once 3 of the sides were glued down I then used AURORA LIGHTS Confetti Mix and the BOKEH LIGHTS Confetti to add the shaker bits to the pocket. I then sealed the last acetate flap down and attached the shaker panel to the card base. For a visual of a similar card, I have made in the past click → HERE.

For the Sentiments:

• I used the BEE BOLD NUMERIC DIES for the 70. 
• The "Cheers" comes from the SIP SIP HOORAY  that was stamped on black card stock and heat embossed in white. I then used the coordinating SIP SIP HOORAY DIES to die cut it.
• The "to" and the "years" comes from the BRIE MINE stamp set. For the years I had to get a bit creative and piece together the "y" from lucky and the ears stamp together. I then did some partial die-cutting to cut out the word using the coordinating ears die from BRIE MINE HONEY CUTS and then fussy cut around the "y". 

I hope this cheerful Frameless Shaker Birthday Card inspired you today. I love how the shaker elements somehow make a card more festive!

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