Winter Wonderland Snow Globe Shaker Card

 

 

Snowflakes, snow globes, and a little shaker magic—what could be more festive for Christmas? This cheerful shaker card is full of wintry sparkle and holiday fun, and I created it with the new Winter Wonderland Snow Globe Craft Die Set along with a few other new dies from this release. I especially love the Merry Christmas sentiment with its playful, wonky letters. It adds the perfect touch of whimsical snowy goodness!

I also have a YouTube process video available if you’d like to follow along and see how this merry little snow globe came together. I hope it inspires you to shake up some holiday creativity and make a festive card of your own!

Have A Web-tastic Day

Not too spooky, just a little bit cutesy, this grinning jack o’lantern is all smiles as he peeks out from a tangle of spooky spider webs. He looks like he is ready to light up the night, tell a few pumpkin jokes. He is just one of a trio from the Patchwork Pumpkins by Pajama Crafter Stamps, and each pumpkin has its own playful personality. For this card, I created my own inked spooky background using several shades of purple ink, blending them together to give the scene a rich, magical Halloween glow. Then I trimmed it out with spider webs to add a little eerie texture, a little crafty drama, and just the right amount of boo-tiful fun.

My friend is colored with Copic markers in the following colors:  

• Y32, YR12, YR15, YR18 - pumpkin
• T1, T3, T5, T7 - gray
• YG61, G43, G46 - leaves
• Y00, Y02, Y13, Y17 - yellow
• YG11, YG05, YG63 - bright green
• RV10, RV02 - pink
• V01, V12, V15, V17 - purple
• B000, B00, BG02 - blue

The sentiment is the from cardstock using the Dang, Whoa, Yikes! Word and Shadow Die Set.  I dusted the edges of the yellow shadow with a little Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide Ink.  The letters were dusted with a bit of Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Ink. To add a little more interest to the letters, I used a marker to add a few little lines and stars similar to using a white gel pen.  The smaller sentiment at the bottom corner of the card is from the Boo-larina Stamp Set.  

This little guy just makes me so happy and makes me look forward to spooky season.  How about you?

Dang! You're Simply Incredible

Kapow! This Simply Incredible Super Hero is ready to leap off the card and save the day! Packed with courageous adventures, bold energy, and just the right amount of comic-book flair, this design is pure fun from cape to cardstock. I’m totally smitten with the new Capes & Courage stamp set from Pajama Crafter Stamps—it brings instant excitement to any project. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, cheering someone on, or sending a little heroic encouragement, this card is ready for action!

I did a little ink blending on stencils using Squeezed Lemonade, Prize Ribbon, Lost Shadow and Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide Inks.

My superhero is colored with Copic Markers in the following colors:

• E000, E00, E11 - skin
• E31, E55, E57 - hair
• B21, B32, B37 - jacket
• R05, R08, R24 - cape
• Y00, Y08 - t-shirt and mask
• W3, W5, W7 - pants

The sentiment is made from the Dang, Whoa, Yikes Word and Shadow Die Set.  I made sure the shadow was black cardstock, so that "Dang" would really pop.  I also added a few white gel pen accents.

As always, I do love a little dimension on my cards, so I popped up my friend, and both sentiments on foam dots.  

This was such a fun card to make and I just love this little guy, don't you?

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have been inspired to create this little guy!

Nutcracker Snow Globe

 

Can you hear the magical notes of “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” floating through the air? A graceful ballerina takes center stage in this enchanting snow globe, watched over by not one, but two festive nutcrackers! I brought this merry shaker card to life with the new Kat Scrappiness Winter Woodland Snow Globe Craft Die.

I love shopping my stash and mixing brand-new goodies with old favorites—and the result is pure holiday delight!

To add the perfect finishing touch, I paired the new Merry Messages Stamp Set with the Scalloped Sentiment Strips, tying the whole festive scene together with a cheerful holiday flourish.

The cast of this ballet has been colored with Copic markers in the following colors:

• T1, T3, T5, T7
• E0000, E00, E11
• Y11, Y13, Y19
• V01, V12, V15
• RV000, RV00, RV02

Thank you for stopping by my blog today and I hope you have been inspired to create a holiday snow globe of your own.
