Slim Line Shaker Card is Whale Done

3/29/2021

I think that you'll agree that this slim line card is whale done! I made this card with the Whale of a Time suite of products. Sadly, the Whale of a Time patterned paper is discontinued, but this fun shaker card could be made with other patterned papers. This card idea uses the same dimensions as last week's Whale of a Time slim line cards. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.
Slim line card idea that is also a shaker card. This fun slim line card uses the Whale of a Time suite of products including the Whale Done stamp set from Stampin' Up!

How to make this shaker card

To make the shaker on this slim line card, I cut the Pretty Peacock cardstock with two of the Stitched Shapes circle dies. I also cut a piece of Foam Adhesive Sheet with the same circle dies. I cut a piece of Window Sheeting and a piece of the Whale of a Time patterned paper with the larger of the circle dies. I adhere the window sheet to the back of the Pretty Peacock circle, then I added the foam circle. I filled the circle with the Whale of a Time sequins before adding the patterned paper circle to the back. 

I added this to the front of the slim line card. I added pieces of seaweed stamped in Granny Apple Green and coral stamped with Calypso Coral ink to the front of the circle. I embossed the greeting with white embossing powder and trimmed the end to match the end of the words. I added this to the front of the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Easy, No Mess Watercoloring Card Ideas

3/19/2021

3 Comments

 
The True Love Designer Series paper is the perfect floral patterned paper for coloring, and watercolor pencils and blender pens are the perfect solution for easy, no mess cards. Plus, they're an inexpensive way to color images. We all love the look and ease of Stampin' Blends, but they can be a little costly if you want a lot of colors. The watercolor pencils are a great inexpensive alternative.

Today, I am hopping with the fabulous designers of the Pretty Cards & Papers International Design Team. We are all creating cards with the True Love patterned paper, and I think you're going to love them! You'll find the list of designers at the bottom of this post, so after you check out my projects, be sure to click through the rest of the hop to see all the other beautiful cards.

So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Gorgeous Posies Card Idea

All of these cards use the Happy Thoughts stamp set. This is a fabulous greeting set that has both outside and inside greetings. This stamp set, the True Love Patterned Paper, watercolor pencils, and a little cardstock is all you need to make beautiful cards! These flowers are colored with the Gorgeous Grape colored pencil and then blended with a blender pen.

Here, I have colored one of the other flowers in the True Love patterned paper pack with the Calypso Coral watercolor pencils. I cut the sentiment with the Stitched So Sweetly dies and added a few Pearls.

Thank you card idea

Similar to the first card, these flowers are also colored with the Gorgeous Grape watercolor pencil. This is a great way to use the flowers at the edges of the paper since half of each flower is covered by the patterned paper. The sentiment is stamped on a 1/2" strip of Basic White cardstock and a few pearls and white bakers twine are added as accents.

Basic Black cardstock: 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2"
Basic White cardstock: 1/2" x 4 1/4"

Floral Birthday Card

Once again, I've used the half flowers from the edge of the True Love patterned paper to tuck under this strip of striped paper. I colored the flowers Calypso Coral and the leaves granny Apple Green. I love the bright pop of the colors on the black cardstock! I stamped the birthday greeting on Basic White cardstock and punched the shape with the Tailored Tag punch.
