Happy World Card Making Day!
The first Saturday of October each year has been designated World Card Making Day, a day for all the crafter out there to make a card or two or many to send and share with family and friends.
Today I thought I would share with you one of my favorite types of card – a shaker card, using the dies from the new Still Scenes Bundle from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog. The bundle includes the Still Scenes Cling Stamp Set and Snow Globes Scenes Dies. Since this is October I thought a Halloween card was perfect. I’ve matted a piece of Monster Bash Designer Series Paper on Very Vanilla Card stock, then used the top of the snow globe die to die cut the “globe”, added the snow dome (they have adhesive all ready on them), filled with sequins from my stash, added another piece of designer paper to the back, then adhered the entire unit to the Soft Suede card base.
Base of the globe is Pumpkin Pie card stock with Silver foil die cut layered on top. For a more “spooky” look I’ve used a sponge dauber to add some Staz-On Black ink to the silver foil as well as long the edges of the card. To finish the card is a greeting from Itty Bitty Greeting in black on Very Vanilla card stock strip.
Thank you for taking the time to stop by today, hope this project has inspired you to try paper crafting. Have a great day – Craft On!
