I love a shaker card!
The first thing I saw with this new stamp set, Accented Blooms, was a window.
I was initially going to just make a recessed greeting but it turned into
sparkly shaker window instead.
BTW, when you mount this stamp set and punch out the middle piece, SAVE it!
You can use it like a shadow stamp!
To create the shaker part, I added a clear acetate Window Sheet first with a little snail adhesive tape. Next I used my Stampin’ Up Foam Adhesive Strips.
I cut tiny snips at the tight curves.
I added more strips around the edges and added my sequins.
After taking the paper off the strips, I add ONE MORE acetate window sheet. Most people will add their paper or card stock on top of the window. I like to add one more acetate sheet so I can have better control of the window placement
when it comes time to put it on the card.
I tried so many colors of card stock for the greeting inside my window! In the end I chose to stamp on the back of a new designer paper, Garden Impressions.
(good thing no one sees what the ugly side looks like, right?)
If you have the Tailored Tag Punch already, this stamp set is a must-get-now set. The flowers can be stamped in a solid ink for quick and easy or you can enjoy adding color with markers, blends or watercolor. The punch-able greetings are nice, too!
