To My Main Squeeze!

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a Valentine's Day card with you.  I used stamps from two different sets on my card.  The main image is a super fun, interactive WOBBLE set called Main Squeeze Set (Sku#4360).  The verse is from Show The Love Set (Sku#4230).

All that pretty shimmer is from a Wink of Stella pen.

This is the inside with the verse that comes with the main image.

Shaker displays and shake those Tic Tacs!!

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm so happy to be sharing some new Christmas sets from Art Impressions with you!

The first set I used is called Christmas Cheer Set (Sku#4666).

Over at Art Impressions there's a fun challenge going on...

I made a fun shaker card perfect for any adult or child!  My first step was to cut the pieces for the Easel to hold it up and the front frame and background. Square Easel Die (Sku#4699)

Next I added the acetate to hold in my "shake" items.  I glued and taped it to be sure nothing snuck out. 

I added a triple layer of Scotch foam tape.  I need to make sure there was enough room between the acetate and background that all the little shake items could move around.

Then I added the beads and removed the tape backing.

I affixed the background paper and had this...ready to add my adorable Art Impressions image and sentiment. 

Look at those beautiful beads, sequins and baubles.

I colored the penguin and added foam dimensional tape to pop him up.

Here's the easel die that will support my sweet little Christmas scene.

Look at all those fun baubles that the CUTE, CUTE penguin has behind him.

I recently discovered the Marvy markers at Ai.  I'm loving them for adding detail to my copic coloring.

I....LOVE....SPARKLE!

The other set I use was Holly Jolly Set (Sku#4667).

I saw something similar to this on Pinterest.  They took the snowman's tummy out to show the Tic Tacs.  What a cute little gift, right?

I Brake for Jumbo Candy Canes!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing a holiday card.  It's never too early to start on your Christmas cards.  Waiting until the last minute only causes stress for yourself.  This card actually came together very quickly.

I've used two stamps from I Brake for Stamps.

The image is called JUMBO CANDY CANE.

The verse is from EVERY DAY PHRASES.

I added a little bling ... just because.

Cardinal shaker card

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing a shaker card with you.  My card features CARDINAL from I BRAKE FOR STAMPS.

I have a quick little "how to" for my card.  These are so easy to make.

First I took a piece of acetate (it's packaging from a metal die that I saved) and glued and taped it to the back of my open frame.  Next I added the dimensional foam that will pop up the panel and allow the confetti to shake around.

This is the window from the front.

Next I put the confetti in the middle of the image and position the frame over it and press down to seal it.

Here it is all spread out. 

Here is the confetti all settled at the bottom. 

People really enjoy the interactive cards and this is such a fun one to give!
