Hello! Welcome back to my blog. I created this card to join Newton's Nook Designs current challenge. I got busy with my card making responsibilities that I am not able to join in blog challenges. Newton's Nook's current challenge is too hard to pass because the cat in the photo inspiration reminds me of my sister's cat, Bibi.
I colored the image using Copic markers. The stamp image is from Newton's Nook Designs Newton Loves Cake stamp set. I don't have the coordinating die for this stamp so I fussy cut the images leaving a white border around it. Using a craft knife, I cut slits on the ears of the cat so I can tuck in the party hat behind the cat's ears. I added some puffy embossing on the cream of the cake using Wow! embossing powder.
For the panel, I adhered a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" white cardstock to the NNK Confetti stencil. Using the Altenew Detailed Blending Brushes, I inked the confetti with different colors. Using a small tipped blending brush allowed me to do multi-ink blending without needing to mask areas of the stencil. There is some bleeding in the the color but this does not bother me at all.
I trimmed a sliver off the long and short sides of the stenciled panel so it will fit nicely inside the A2 Full Front Shaker card pockets from Kat Scrappiness. I scored the tabs on the plastic film before inserting the stenciled panel. The clear sleeve comes with adhesive on the tabs. I remove the release panel and adhered this to the back of the stenciled panel. I poured sequins inside, then adhered the last tab to close up the shaker.
I die cut a yellow vellum using a deckled edge die. I heat embossed the sentiment to this vellum using white embossing powder. The sentiment is from NND Birthday Roundabout stamp set. I adhered the colored cat to this vellum, then adhered this to the front of the shaker.
Below is a short video of the shaker card. Nothing is more satisfying than hearing the shakers on a shaker card. Thank you for visiting my blog. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
