SWEET! Brutus Monroe DT - Slimline Shaker Card

Friday, January 20, 2023

Happy Friday friends!
The sun is shining, the sky is blue and it makes me long for Spring!
But, before that can happen, we need to celebrate Valentine's Day AND another shaker card!


This is a slimline card for the Brutus Monroe Inspiration Team
Using the 'Sprinkled With Love' Stamp set.  The stamp set mostly features donuts and sweet treats,
but I wanted to use the hearts to make something a little unexpected.


Using the Chroma Glitter Glaze in Navy, I coated the cardstock behind my shaker openings.
While it was drying, I die cut 4 scalloped circles in the card front and added some foam tape to create space for the shaker areas.


The most difficult part was heat embossing these hearts using Alabaster Embossing Powder onto acetate. I used heat-resistant acetate, but it can still warp if you heat it too directly. Despite using a powder tool, My craft room is full of static and a tornado of dust, glitter, and everything that will stick to acetate. It took a couple tries, but I think the results are totally worth the effort!


Then the fun part, of adding the sequins and putting it all together!

Thanks for stopping by today and hope you have a sweet, sunny weekend!!
