On the 25th of each month a new challenge is issued by the Christmas Stampathon team and this month we have to create multiple Christmas cards on the theme of ‘Make It Clear’. I made encircled shaker cards using Window sheet and the Encircle In Nature stamp set.
To recreate the encircled shaker card, you will need:
Garden Green card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” Balmy Blue card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” Window Sheet – 3¾” by 3⅜” Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside Scrap Garden Green card
Using Whisper White ink, I stamped the 2 cloud images from the Under The Moon stamp set onto the upper half of the piece of Balmy Blue card.

A circle was die cut, using the Stylish Shapes Dies, in the upper half of the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card. I adhered the panel of Window Sheet to the back of the die cut circle, holding it in place with Mini Glue Dots.

I tore a piece of copy paper to give a ragged edge and used it with a Blending Brush to apply Balmy Blue ink to the die cut panel to give the impression of banks of snow. I stamped the sentiment, from the retired Ringed With Nature stamp set, in Garden Green ink onto the inked card.

I applied Foam Adhesive Strips around the circular aperture, over the Window Sheet. I also added pieces of the Foam Adhesive strip to the bottom and sides of the panel.

Placing the Balmy Blue panel on my desk, I added 2 or 3 pinches of white sequins, stars and snowflakes onto the stamped clouds. I removed the backing from the Adhesive Strips and placed the panel down onto the Balmy Blue panel, making sure that the sequins remained inside the circular area.

From scrap Garden Green card, I die cut pine trees using the Encircled In Nature Dies. These were added to the card front, overlapping the clear circle. The whole panel was then adhered to the Garden Green card base.

Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop where we are sharing Shaker cards. I have used the gorgeous Thoughtful Expressions stamp set and dies to make my pretty hummingbird shaker card.
To recreate the hummingbird shaker card, you will need:
Pebbled Path card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” Pool Party card – 5⅝” by 3⅞” Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” Softly Stippled dsp – 5½” by 3¾” Window sheet – 3⅞” by 3⅞” – I used a cut down Clear Envelope as I couldn’t find my Window Sheet Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside Scrap Basic White card
Using a die from the Thoughtful Expressions I cut out a shape from the Softly Stippled dsp. From scrap Basic White card. I taped the same die to the next size up and die cut a frame from scrap Basic White card. The frame was glued to the front of the Softly Stippled dsp using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The dsp was laid over the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card and the sentiment, from the Everyday Details stamp set, was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the Basic White panel, using the die cut panel to get the positioning right.

Using Tear & Tape Adhesive I adhered my square of cut down Clear Envelope to the back of the Softly Stippled dsp behind the die cut shape. I suggest you use Window Sheet……… I couldn’t find mine!

Dimensional Strips were adhered around the negative window on the back of the dsp panel. I also added strips of Adhesive around the edges of the panel to raise it up. The Dimensional strips are slightly higher then our ordinary Dimensionals.

I rubbed my Embossing Buddy over the stamped Basic White panel to remove static and added a pinch of Loose Silver Sequins over the sentiment. I also added a few aqua coloured sequins from my stash. The panel of dsp was then carefully added over the Basic White panel. I pressed firmly to make sure it was well stuck down.
The whole piece was then glued to the Pool Party layer and then to the Pebbled Path card base.
I stamped the hummingbird and single flower in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto scrap Basic White card and coloured both images using the following Blends Pens – Lemon Lolly, Pool Party, Smoky Slate and Pebbled Path. I die cut them out using the Thoughtful Expressions Dies.

A trio of Adhesive Backed Solid Gems completed the card.

Today I am sharing a sweet card made using the Magical Mermaid stamp set. This is a special card for a friend who loves being a mermaid, she has even entered the Miss Mermaid competition and has a fabulous tail. I have used the Inspire Create challenge #047 sketch for this card.
To recreate the Magical Mermaid card you will need;
Coastal Cabana card base – 10” by 5” scored and folded at 5” Highland Heather cardstock 4¾” by 4¾” Whisper White cardstock 4½” by 4½” x 3 Window Sheet 4” by 4” Scrap Whisper White and Shaded Spruce
I sponged Bermuda Bay, Pool Party and Highland Heather inks onto one of the Whisper White panels. I used a little glycerine mixed with the inks to help them blend smoothly. I stamped the sea foliage on the inked panel in Mossy Meadow ink.
I inked up the mermaid in Versamark and stamped it onto some scrap Whisper White cardstock before covering it with Copper Embossing Powder. I heat set it with my heat tool then cut it out using my scissors.
I die cut a circle from another of the Whisper White panels and added a piece of Window Sheet to the back using Mini Glue Dots in each corner. I took a dimensional strip and laid it onto the Window Sheet following the die cut circle and making sure there were no gaps. I added apinch of Iridescent sequins to the inked panel and laid the die cut panel over the top to form a shaker card.
This piece was then added to the Highland Heather layer then the Coastal Cabana card base using the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
The seaweed was die cut from Shaded Spruce cardstock and adhered to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.The mermaid was added on Dimensionals and was given a coat of Clear Wink of Stella for an added bit of sparkle. To complete the card front I added a scattering of Iridescent Sequins.
The inside of the card was stamped using the Family Party and Bermuda Bay and Highland Heather inks. I used some retired dsp and the retired Envelope Punch Board to make an envelope.
I really like the colour palette of the card. I hope my friend likes it.
