Christmas In July – Shaker Cards

23 July, 2020 - Okategoriserade

Hello friends. Jennifer Snyder celebrating Christmas in July. At the halfway mark to Christmas festivities and time starts moving quickly as we get closer.

I am trying hard to be prepared in advance this year.

With that, I hope I am inspiring you to start your projects early as well.

My cards feature the festive Maja Design Holiday in the Alps collection.

This first card is a yummy gingerbread shaker card made with the following sheets of Holiday in the Alps :

Santa Clause A and B side

A New Year

Christmas Day

I combined three beautiful paper patterns from the Holiday in the Alps collection. They coordinate so well together. to create a festive look.

The sweet gingerbread cookie shaker is from Creative Embellishments and has been filled with new shaker mix from Buttons Galore that look like tiny peppermint candy and gingerbread cookies.

So adorable. There are also 3D buttons adorning the card from Buttons Galore and More.

Here is a close up of the background papers and shaker mix. It’s hard to see the cool reindeer patterns on the paper at a distance. The shaker mix is adorable as well.

The second card is more traditional with a stocking shaker and holiday wreath design.

The shaker is once again from Creative Embellishments wit the shaker mix from Buttons Galore’s new collection called Doo Dadz. .

Here is a close up showing the “Merry Christmas ” sentiment. Have you ever noticed the beautiful borders Maja Design has on the bottom of every sheet of 12×12 paper?

Take a look at the bottom of each sheet. One side has information regarding the paper and UPC code but the other side is a treasure. The paper banners make great sentiments on cards.

Thank you for stopping by for a little Christmas in July.

Happy crafting.

Hello crafty friends. Jennifer Snyder here today with some all purpose cards for the summer. And the perfect Maja Design papers for the summer? yep, Life by the Sea.

This collection has always been one of my favorite classic collections.

This collection is also wonderful for creating projects with layers.

The papers used are :

Navigate

Landmark

The East Coast

Marina Hovering

These two cards also feature chipboard from Creative Embellishments.

The treatment on the chipboard is simple. I added white acrylic paint to a dry sea sponge and dabbed the chipboard. The sea sponge has an irregular surface with holes here and there much like Swiss cheese. The irregular surface allows the paint to be dabbed softly without full coverage like a paint brush would.

Thanks so stopping here today. Happy crafting.
