How To Make a Card with Multiple Shaker Pockets

How To Make a Card with Multiple Shaker Pockets – Sweet Strawberry – Focus Friday – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin Up! Demo – UK

Welcome to this Focus Friday post. For the month of April, we have been looking at all things shaker cards. Today the focus has been on multiple shaker pockets on one card.

I used the layering circle dies to create these three windows. You could of course do any shape you wanted but I stuck to circles here. One tip is to remove the backing on the foam strips before you apply them as they are much easier to manipulate then. Also, mark where your windows will fall on the background before you apply any adhesive. It will make your life so much easier. I didn’t and yes I still managed, but learn from my mistakes.

Make a Card that is Bold, Bright & Easy

Make a Card that is Bold, Bright & Easy. Biggest Wish – Flowering Fields – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo

I love how this card turned out. The contrast between light, dark, bold and bright really works. The colours are Poppy Parade, Basic Black and Basic White and they all compliment each other perfectly. I was tempted to add more embellishments but I think it would distract rather enhance this card.

Make a Sunflower Card for a Friend

Make a Sunflower Card for a Friend – Celebrate Sunflowers – Sunny Sentiments – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – UK

I haven’t used this stamp set in ages. Not sure why as it is such a lovely set. I love this really big sunflower and of course, it has a matching die. I stamped this sunflower in Daffodil Delight. It wasn’t as vibrant as I wanted it to be so I decided to use Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers to add more detail. It really makes a huge difference.

How I Made a Non-Dimensional Shaker Card – Heart

How I Made a Non-Dimensional Shaker Card – Heart – Friday Focus – In Bloom – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – Lincoln UK.

Welcome to the latest post in my Friday Focus series. Today we are looking at making a shaker card with no dimension. As you know in April we have been looking at things Shaker Cards. I’ve used the heart punch pack to create this little shaker window.

The Sweet Talk designer series paper (DSP) is Valentine’s paper but I think it works perfectly for this birthday card. I love all the shades of red and pink. So pretty and of course fun to make.

I’ve made this style of gift box before. This time I’ve changed it up a totally different colour combo. I love this style and I really think it looks super cute. The Sweet Talk designer series paper (DSP) used here is classified as Valentine’s paper but I think it can be used for any occasion. Hearts are not just for Valentine but for any day of the year.

Tulip Fields – How to Use it – Thank You Card

Tulip Fields – How to Use it – Thank You Card – Flowering Tulips – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

As you will know I love tulips. These fields of tulips would be a dream to see in real life. In 2017 Stampin’ Up! had their On Stage Live in Amsterdam in the Spring. I got to see some lovely tulips in Amsterdam but not in the countryside. Wonder day I would love to return and visit the beautiful gardens of Keukenhof and see all the wonderful spring flowers.

This card came together very easily thanks to the Stamparatus which made positioning everything a doddle. I stamped on a larger panel and cut it down to size.

Come and Shake With Me – Simple Shaker Card

Come and Shake With Me – Simple Shaker Card – Party Puffins – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK.

Welcome to this “Friday Focus” post. For the month of April, we are looking at all things Shaker Cards. Today’s card is what I would call a standard shaker card. It uses foam strips and tape to create a shaker card. It has dimension and shakes beautifully.

I’ve not used these shaker shapes in the shaker before. They have been sitting in my stash for the last year and at last, they are seeing the light of day. They are great, bright and fun.

Easy Congratulations Card with No Stamping Required

Easy Congratulations Card with No Stamping Required – Hand-Penned – Memory & More Cards – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – UK.

This card uses the gorgeous Hand-Penned suite of products. Specifically, I’ve used the designer series paper (DSP) & Memory and More Cards. The Memory & More cards are not just for pocket scrapbooking, they work great for cardmaking as well.

I’ve inked the edges of everything. This helps each layer pop from the other. The sentiment is a sticker but I’ve popped it up with dimensional to make it stand out against everything else.

Make a Full Card Shaker Card With Me – Focus Friday

Make a Full Card Shaker Card With Me – Focus Friday – Pansy Patch – Pansy Petals – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

Welcome to this Focus Friday post. For the month of April, we are looking at all things shaker cards. So are you ready to shake with me? Today we are looking at a full card shaker card. This is a great card to make as it “recycles” any pieces of plastic acetate packaging you have.

I love this card as you can see all the pretty paper in the background. I haven’t added too many shaker elements as this card has no dimension and you don’t want to hide the beautiful paper.

measurements

Fresh Freesia Cardstock – A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
Pansy Patch – 14.35cm X 10cm
Strip of Basic White that is 2.5cm wide
Piece of acetate packaging that measures at least 16cm X 11cm – I used an old C6 size clear envelope
