Flat Shaker Card

 Happy Saturday Stampers!

This is Michelle back with another shaker card to share with you! I am loving making these flat shaker cards, they are so easy and fun! Here's my new card.

This card is an A2 size card. I cut a panel of white cardstock in A2 size. I ink blended 3 Distress Oxides on the panel, Squeezed Lemonade, Saltwater Taffy and Kitch Flamingo. Then I laid the new Bubbles Stencil on top of the panel and used the same inks but in different areas to bring out the bubbles. Then I took a piece of cellophane and taped it to the back of panel on 3 sides. I added some pink sequins and then taped close the last side. Now I had my shaker. I die cut the sentiment using the new Bold Caps Alpha Dies. I stamped out the chick and the chicken from the new Down on the Farm stamp and Die set. I colored them with alcohol markers and then adhered them to the card front.

Let's take a look at what I used.

 

If you want to see me make this card, I did a Facebook live, showing how to make the card. Here is the link to the Facebook page for Sweet 'n Sassy stamps. 

Thank you so much for visiting. I hope you try to make a flat shaker card and check out the video to see how I made it. have a great weekend and don't forget to get crafty! 

Easy Blooming Anemones Card

 Happy Saturday Stampers!

Michelle here from East Bay Stamp Chick. I have another card share for you.

I love the new Blooming Anemones Stamp set but didn't have the time to do all the coloring so, I added color with ink blending. Quick and easy!

Ink blending is a quick and easy way to add color without having to color each petal or detail. I started the card with a white piece of cardstock measuring 4x5.25. I used distress oxides. I started at the top with Twisted Citron, then Cracked Pistachio. Next I used Salvaged Patina and then finally Peacock Feathers at the bottom.  

After the ink blending. I embossed the large floral from the set with white embossing powder. The sentiment is in white embossing powder as well and is from the Love Wordfetti set. The Friend die is a new die in the shop and I used a brushed silver metallic paper to die cut it from. Both the black strip and the word friend are popped up on foam squares. I also popped up the entire panel on foam squares before mounting it to my cared base.

Here's a closer look at the sets I used.

Thanks so much for visiting today! I hope you have a chance to get crafty this weekend!

  

My First Mini Slimline Card

 Happy Saturday Stampers! This Michelle here from East Bay Stamp Chick.

Have you made a mini slimline card yet? Well, I 'm here today to show you my very 1st one and I think I'm in love with this new size! My card measures 3x 6.25 inches. I cut a square of white cardstock to 6x 6.25 and scored it in the middle.

So would you like to see my card? Here it is!

So here's what I used to make this card. I used 4 stamp sets from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. The background is the new Butterfly Background stamp set. The sentiment is the Teeny Alpha stamp set. The girl is from Girl Power 2 and her wings are from the Made New stamp set. The Butterfly Background stamp set is also the stamp of the month, so you can get it free with a $60 purchase.

To make this card, I cut a white panel that is 2.74x6 inches. I heat embossed with white embossing powder the Butterfly Background stamp. Then I ink blended Spun Sugar, Kitch Flamingo, and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxides from light to dark. I adhered the panel to the card base on foam. I stamped the sentiment out using the Teeny Alpha Stamp set and then fussy cut each word. I also adhered them using foam squares. I colored the girl and wings with alcohol ink markers and then fussy cut them out  (there are matching dies available for the Made New set).   I glued the wings to the back of my girl. I used foam squares to pop her out on the panel. I added a bow and silver sequins for a little shine.

I hope you have some time this weekend to get crafty!
