Hello Friends,

What more fun than making a Baby Card?  Making Baby Shaker Cards.  Two friends are awaiting the arrival of their new granddaughter and great-granddaughter, so I thought that I would shake things up by making Baby Shaker Cards with the Animal Outing stamp set by Stampin' Up!.

The woven threads sequins are simply dazzling beneath the window.

The Purple Posy Kangaroo and the Flirty Flamingo Koala only add to the fanciful appeal of this Baby Shaker Card.

Best Shaker Card Tips & Tricks

Strategically adhere a few assorted sequins in permanent positions before adding your window and shakers.

Foam Adhesive strips give the added height needed for the shakers to move freely.

Dust the inside of the window with an Embossing Buddy before assembling your card.

The Take a Pick Tool is a must-have tool for picking up sequins and other small objects.

My window was cut with the Stitched Nested Labels dies.  My sentiment is from Grandma's House stamp set.  Scroll down for a complete list of supplies used for making today's Baby Shaker Card.

Just a reminder, the 2019 Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog goes live tomorrow at 3 AM Mountain Time.

Have a fabulous day!

Hello Friends,

Today's card is a soft and carefree and back to the Basics Card.  It's cute and fun and anyone could make this card.  It features the Little Elephant stamp set and the Elephant Builder Punch by Stampin' Up!.

Little Elephant Baby Card Tips

To ink up 3 different balloons I inked my stamp with the brush tip end of Petal Pink, Soft Seafoam and Pool Party markers and stamped with my Stamparatus.  I repeated the process until the balloons were the shade that I wanted.  You can do the same thing with your Smoky Slate Marker for the balloon strings or you can simply color in the balloons strings.

I punched my elephants with the Elephant Builder Punch and popped them up with Stampin' Dimensionals.

For your convenience, I listed today's card supplies at the bottom of this post.

Celebrate Your Day and have a fabulous weekend!

Hello Friends,

Our newest grandson was born late last week, so naturally, I set to making a handmade Baby Card.  It's a Double Z Fold Card featuring retiring, carryover, and new stamps and dies.  I love that I could personalize Baby Hudson's Card using my Large Letter Framelit Dies. These dies are fabulous for oh so many things.   I will be sad to see these dies go.  They are only available about a week more or WHILE SUPPLIES LAST.

Would you like to meet Baby Hudson and learn How to Make Double Z Fold Cards?

Introducing Hudson Cole Feicht!

How to Make a Double Z Fold Card

Cut Card Base 4-1/4" x 11".  Score at 2-3/4" and 5-1/2".

Cut a second strip of card stock measuring 2" x 11" to form the second "Z".  Score at 2-3/4" and 5-1/2".

Hint:  The second Z will go the opposite direction of the card base as shown in the picture above.

The Double Z Fold Card is 3 dimensional, but it will fold to tuck neatly in an A-2 or medium envelope.

You'll be happy to know that the This Little Piggy stamp set is carrying over to the new Stampin' Up! Catalog.  And you will be doubly happy to know that there is a super cute new farm animal stamp set with cows that will coordinate with the This Little Piggy stamp set.  The Over the Moon stamp set and the This Little Piggy stamp set play well together.

Large Letter Dies aren't just for card making, they work equally well for Scrapbooking and Memory Keeping.  Just look at how they work for scrapbook Titles!

One of my favorite techniques that works oh so well with the Large Letter Dies is the Eclipse Technique.  Click Here to learn How to Do the Eclipse Technique.

Large Letter Dies Going, Going, Gone.  If you would like to add the Large Letter Dies to your Craft Room Stash, order soon.  They will only be around through June 3 or WHILE SUPPLIES LAST.

Have a fabulous day,
