Enjoy Life shaker birthday card


A birthday card for a family member which is why I left the name off lol.
I made a shaker card with a bit of inky water colouring for the background.


How to make this card
1. Base card is 5" x 7" so cut first mat at 4 6/8" x 6 6/8" in Rich Razzleberry
and adhere onto base card.
2. Cut piece of dsp 4 1/2" x 6 1/2" and adhere onto mat.
3. Using layered rectangles cut a frame in RR using the 3rd and 5th size
(counting from largest frame)
4. Cut a piece of window sheet 2 3/4" x 4"
Line with tear and tape and adhere to inside of your frame.
Add foam adhesive strips to inside of frame as shown below.

5. Cut piece of watercolour card 4 1/8" x 2 6/8".
Wet using your aqua painter and add your ink colours,
one at a time, blending the joins.
6. Stamp sentiment grass and butterflies in black ink.

7. Add a sprinkling of shaker stuff to centre of watercolour card
and carefully add your acetate frame.
8. Add pieces of velvet ribbon, with tails cut, to your card.
I used wet glue for this.

9. Adhere your shaker piece using double sided tape and wet glue.
10. punch RR with classic label punch and stamp sentiment
in black onto whisper white and punch again with same punch
only this time trim off part as shown in photo, by placing the card like this.

11. Assemble as above.
12. Stamp the girl silhouette in memento and cut out.
Adhere in place using dimensionals.
I will add the name using Make a Difference stamp set.
