 Hey stampers, welcome to another week of Watch It Weekly Wednesday. I'm Aubrey, part of the Stampin' Jill Creative team, and today I'm excited to share with you a new set that's in the Holiday Mini catalog. It's this super cute stamp set, Merry Snowflakes, and the stitched snowflakes dies that coordinate. So cute, and this die set is big and so pretty. I have loved playing with it. And today I want to show you one card in particular, it's a shaker card, and I want to show you how I did it and kind of some tips and tricks for making shaker cards. So we have these great, these are called Subtle Shimmer Sequins. They are so beautiful and I thought we would, we would be really missing out if I didn't make a shaker card using these, they're so pretty. So I'm using this Peaceful Place Designer Series Paper, and I have already cut out these three snowflake dies. So they completely cut out the snowflakes, the whole image there, just like that, okay? And this is a five and a quarter by four piece of Designer Series Paper. And then I took a piece of basic white cardstock, and this is how I did it. I got, I wanted to have the actual snowflakes behind those little windows, okay? So what I did, I had already cut out my little windows. So I used these dies, this does the embossed image that's inside of these frames, okay? I lined up my basic white and my Designer Series Paper just like this, and then I lined these up just inside those frames so that I could cut out those images and I knew exactly where I needed the embossed texture to be, okay? So I've already pre-done that, and now I want to show you how to do the shaker part of this card. So I'm going to set aside my basic white piece, and I'm just going to work for a minute on my Designer Series Paper piece, okay? I have a piece of window sheet that I have cut to that exact same size, five and a quarter by four, so it fits perfectly, and I've already started to put on my foam sheets. You can see, I'm going to first adhere this. I'm going to adhere it with glue dots so that it stays down just like this. I'm just going to do one in each corner, it's going to work just like that, and I'm going to adhere this down just so that it lines up perfectly with my Designer Series Paper piece, okay? And you can see I've already started outlining each of these little holes where I'm going to put my shaker pieces. I'm using these foam adhesive strips, and I'm just going to outline this last little snowflake here, and I'll show you how I do that. I just peel off one of these strips, and using snips I kind of just go right around the edge of that snowflake. Now you want to be careful that you don't get too close to the edge because then you'll be able to see through your foam from the other side, which you don't want to see. Just be careful to get it far enough back that you won't be able to see it, and just outline that entire snowflake just like that, okay? So next what we're going to do is add our sequins for our shaker card. Now what I like to do is use an embossing buddy. We no longer carry these at Stampin' Up, but you can buy one of these at your local craft store, and I like to just use the powder in my embossing buddy and kind of just go around the inside of each of my little shaker holes so that when I put my sequins in there they're not going to stick to the sides of my foam adhesive sheets, okay? Just like that. Now I'm going to take my sequins, and you want to make sure each of your holes is filled enough that there's enough shaker in there, but not too much that you aren't able to actually shake your card because there's too much sequins. So I like to just make a little pile in the center, and obviously this is my bigger snowflake, so we're going to do more than the others in that one, just like that, and then put some in each one, okay? Oh, those are so pretty. I love the pearlized look that they have. So pretty. Just like that. Okay, next we're going to peel off the backing on all of our foam adhesive strips, and this might take a minute. So once you have all of your adhesive backing peeled off, then you're going to take your basic white piece that you have pre-embossed with your snowflakes, and because you've perfectly lined these up already, and because it's the same size as your DSP on your window sheet, you know exactly where to lay it so that your snowflakes are going to be right inside those holes. You're just going to lay that right over the top of those foam adhesive strips, and cure that down, and just like that, you have a pretty shaker card, and you can see the cute little snowflakes are just right centered perfectly in there, okay? So let me show you the full card that I have made with this. So I added a Merry Everything Sing and just a little piece of twine there. You really don't need much extra on a card like this because of the shaker. It kind of does the work for you. So much fun. I have loved this Merry Snowflake Stamp Set and the Stitch Snowflakes Dyes that coordinate. It is so much fun. I also love a good shaker card, especially around the holidays. So I hope you enjoy playing with this stamp set. If you have any questions, make sure to email us at sudemonstrator at gmail.com, or visit us at our Instagram page at stampinjill.
