Full of Love Shaker card

I just love the fun bright colors of today's shaker card! I used the Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set and coordinating Everyday Jar Framelits dies from Stampin' Up's NEW 2017-2018 Annual Catalogue. Of course, I had to add a fun, textured background with the new Embossing Paste and Pattern Party Decorative Mask too.

How To Make This Hand Stamped Card:

Start this card with a card base of Peekaboo Peach cardstock. Then you can cut a layer of Whisper White and Melon Mambo cardstock to layer on top of the cardbase.

To Create the Fun Embossed Background:

On the Melon Mambo layer, lay the small diamond Pattern Party Decorative Masks and hold in place with some washi tape or a post-it note. Begin adding some Embossing Paste with a Palette Knive. See the video here on how to do this. Allow the Embossing Paste to dry and then assemble the Whisper White and Melon Mambo layers, adhering with SNAIL Adhesive. Add the Peekaboo Peach 5/8" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon wrapped around the layers (adhered to the back of the Whisper White layer) and tied on front. Adhere these layers to the card base.

To Create the Jar Shaker:

Start with some pieces of Whisper White cardstock. Stamp the jar image from the Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set twice.

On the background stamped jar you will stamp the butterflies and hearts from the Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set and color them in using the Peekaboo Peach and Melon Mambo Stampin' Pads and an Aqua Painter. (You can check out my watercoloring techniques here).

Next, you will die cut the two stamped jars using the matching Everyday Jar Framelits Dies– using the proper sized die to cut the inside of the top jar image. You will also die cut a jar shape from the Window Sheet– which you will then stamp the greeting 'Full of Love For You' from the Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set with Basic Black Archival Ink and then carefully set it with the Heat Tool so it does not smudge.

Start to assemble to jar by adhering the Window Sheet jar to the top frame jar with a light strip of Fine Tip Glue Pen, (allow it to dry) and then laying the Foam Adhesive Strips along the edge of the inside of this jar layer making sure not to leave any gaps. Add a small bit of Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter to the bottom stamped jar and then peel off the Foam Adhesive Strips and add it to the stamped jar bottom sandwiching the glitter between the layers. (Try not to get glitter on the adhesive!)

Then, stamp the jar lid using Peekaboo Peach ink and die cut it using the matching Everyday Jar Framelit– this will be adhered to the jar front using some Mini Glue Dots or the Fine Tip Glue Pen.

Finally, use a few small strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive to add the 3d jar to the cardfront.
