Happy Friday everyone! It’s Amanda from Twiddler’s Nook again, with a super fun Christmas shaker card! It’s adorable and fits in with the final day of the Fall | Winter Coffee Lovers Hop too! Pink & Main is a super sponsor, did I mention that?!? Even better!
I started my card by stamping some images from Mugs and Kisses and colored them with my copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and then glued everything together with my EZ Squeeze liquid adhesive. I chose a sentiment from the set, stamped it on white cardstock and cut it out with a large sentiment strip die.
Then I created my shaker mechanism. For that I cut the peppermint swirl die from red cardstock. I found the corresponding size circle in the layered circle dies and cut it from acetate. I used liquid glue to adhere these together and carefully lined the back with thin foam strips. I sprinkled in some sparkling cotton tail flock and ice rink super fine glitter and sealed it up with a white circle. This one was cut from the circle one larger than the acetate.
For my background, I chose a fun light blue patterned paper in the Best Friends paper pad and cut it out with the largest rectangle stack A2 dies and adhered it to a white card base. Next, I added the peppermint shaker and finally added the sentiment strip and reindeer mug with foam squares.
For finishing touches, I added glossy accents to the sprinkles, peppermint stick and rudolph’s nose. Then I came in with unicorn Stickles for his cheeks and finished everything off with a few glitter enamel dots from the Thankful pack.
The mugs in this stamp set are just too cute for words! It was really hard to choose just one so I’m going to have to make more of these just to color the rest of those cuties!
