One thing I love about Kat Scrappiness is that she has lots of shaker dies! This older Christmas Lantern is one of them.

I cut the oval base layer three times from red foil cardstock and once from clear acetate. Next I cut the oval frame three times from red glitter foam. Finally I cut the ornament toppers from gold foil cardstock. There are three of them in the die set, so I only had to run them through my die cutting machine once.

I’m still charmed by Simon Hurley’s Woodland Wildlife Stamp and Die Set. So for an Instagram challenge with a snow globe theme, I watercolored the reindeer from it. I also submitted it to Simon Says Stamp’s Monday Challenge.

The snowdrop plate is part of the January Set of Spellbinders Florals Through the Year Collection. So I created a snow-themed shaker card with it. This was very easy, using the Spellbinders Arch Shaker Dome.

First I foiled the snowdrops and the January plate with silver foil, then I foiled the negative with a solid hot foil plate. I added some green ink blending on the leaves and the tips of the petals.

This weekend I shot a video for an Instagram hop next weekend. The theme is Candy Cane Chronicles. After I was done, I had lots of leftover strips of red, pink and white glitter cardstock. I didn’t want to just recycle it, so I made a shaker card with Kat Scrappiness products.

I really like when the color of the shaker bits and the frame match. I have a couple of confetti dies, but most of them are no-name brands. I’m going to keep looking for dies that can be used like this from brands I’m partners with.

I wanted to create a quick summer card with some of the supplies I got from Kat Scrappiness. The lantern shaker die is intended for Christmas cards. But with some ink blending I thought I could make it work for a summer night too.

Kat Scrappiness had a Memorial Day Sale and I stocked up on her own brand of shaker card dies and sentiments.

This Mother’s Day card is super simple yet impressive. It’s only using one die, Hero Arts Mother’s Day Window Die. A lot of the shine comes from the holographic background inside the shaker window.

Today’s card is a shaped shaker card, so I’m starting with the card base.
