Life Is Sweet shaker cards

Hey everybody, Happy Tuesday! I’m delighted to share an awesome Keep It Simple DT inspiration project with you today. You may remember that our new Shaker Kits debuted on the website back in early August. We have a Facebook Live craft-along planned for October 5th to celebrate World Cardmaking Day where several members of our design team will demo the Life Is Sweet and Freshly Brewed kits. These are available as a bundle to purchase prior to the FB Live if you’re interested in joining in! But in the meantime, I’m sharing two cards I made with the Life Is Sweet kit. I’ll share the other two cards I made with the Freshly Brewed kit on the day of the Live.

The card bases, adhesive foam, acetate, frames, ephemera, and shaker bits are all included in the kit. I made my cards a little different than the samples on the package. I added Back To Basics Mango and Rose Enamel Dots to the center of the flowers on the front of my first card.

And this is my second card. I have a confession to make… I messed up the scalloped frame included in the kit so I had to go to Plan B… I die cut another frame from a paper in the Back To Basics Mango Collection Pack using a die in the KIS Shaker Frames A2 Frames #3. I honestly don’t think anybody would ever notice but I wanted to share that the A2 Frames work with this kit! These cards turned out so cute and the only extra ingredient needed to make them is adhesive. I used two kinds of double-sided tape and some small foam pads for dimension. I love that everything else is included!

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins! ;)
