Coffee Cup Shaker Card
To get started, I die cut all the pieces to create the shaker card. I die cut the shaker frame and coffee cup topper from Double Sided Adhesive Foam available from Newton's Nook Designs.
I cut the coffee cup card, shaker frame and coffee cup topper from white cardstock. I cut the coffee cup wrapper from kraft cardstock. I also cut a piece of Acetate Sheet available from Newton's Nook Designs to cover the shaker box.
To add some texture and interest to the inside of the shaker box, I decided to do a little dry embossing. I used a piece of Therm O Web Purple Tape to hold the Newton's Nook Designs Tumbling Hearts Stencil in place on the the front of the coffee cup card base. I then ran this through my die cut machine following the directions to embossing with a stencil/die.
I always love subtle texture this adds to a card. To help the design pop more, I ink blended some Distress Oxide Ink in Picked Raspberry onto the paper. I then went about assembling the shaker card.
After adhering the foam pieces to the card front, I filled the shaker box with some sequins. I then attached the piece of acetate to cover the box and hold the sequins in place.
I then added a white die cut frame to the front of the shaker. Next, comes the stamping!
To embellish the wrapper, I stamped the cat, coffee cup and hearts from the Newton's Nook Designs Sending Hugs Stamp Set with Memento Ink onto white cardstock and then colored them with Chameleon Pens. I then die cut the images using the coordinating Sending Hugs Die Set. I stamped the "Sending Hugs" sentiment from the Newton's Nook Designs Sending Hugs Stamp Set with Versafine Onyx Black Ink onto the kraft cardstock wrapper.
To complete the card, I stamped the "You're the Cream in my coffee" sentiment on the inside of the card. This sentiment is from the Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set.
NEW RSS FEED
Did you used to receive my blog posts via email? Do you miss getting those emails packed with inspiration and ideas? If so, I ask that you subscribe to my blog's NEW RSS Feed.
I used to use Mad Mimi as my RSS Feed however, a couple of months ago I reached the maximum number of subscribers for their free plan and I can no longer send out my blog posts through them without paying $27 dollars a month. I don't know about you, but that is a lot of money that could be spent on more crafty supplies and I have a budget to stick to. I really loved Mad Mimi and how great their emails looked, but again, I have a budget to stick to. So....if you're interested in receiving my blog posts again, I would love for you to sign up HERE. I'm going back to Bloggers Feedburner in hopes of being able to reach you all again. I miss you all bunches!
This is DARLING!
