Happy 2018!

Hello and welcome to Christina’s Creative Corner!

After the hustle and bustle of getting creative for the holidays, I found myself needing a couple of New Year’s cards for people that I was not going to see until after the New Year. I was inspired by Tami White and the cards that she made and decided to make my own version. The base of the card is in Island Indigo, I used the Large Number Framelits Dies for the 2018 on the Soft Sky Foil Specialty Designer Series Paper, and I used a scrap piece of Whisper White Cardstock to heat emboss “Happy” in Silver Embossing Powder from the Number of Years stamp set, using the Banner Triple Punch on the ends. I trimmed a Window Sheet down so that it was big enough to cover the 2018 to make this a shaker card. I lined the edge of the Window Sheet with Foam Adhesive Strips, placed some Frosted Sequins Embellishments (these are retired; however, you can use the Metallics Sequin Assortment) on the Window Sheet, placed the Soft Sky Foil DSP on top, and then adhered this to the Island Indigo base. Stampin’ Dimensionals were used on the piece of Whisper White Cardstock. The inside sentiment I used from the Snowflake Sentiments stamp set, which I stamp in Soft Sky, and used a Sponge Dauber with Island Indigo ink around the edge. Hope you enjoy this shaker card and thanks for stopping by!
