My Cluttered Corner

I love shaker cards. I really do, but sometimes it drives me nutty that all the shaker goodies drop to the bottom of the card and can even end up hidden from view.

I knew that would be the case with this card because the image is so large and the shaker window would be blocked by it substantially.

So, I decided to make a FAUX shaker where the goodies inside would stay put!

Hi everyone! I am super excited to be a part of the 2018 Top Ten YouTube Hop where a bunch of crafters got together to share their favorite projects from 2018! I have a giveaway on YouTube so be sure to check out my video here:

But, I wanted to share my projects here too because YouTube will only allow you to link to 5 videos inside a video so I thought I would share the underlying technique and product videos here:

Check out the Queen and Co Pom Poms and this rainbow card here:

 Sadly the Queen and Co Love Jar kit that I used for this card is no longer available. Queen and Co kits sell out fast, so if there is something that you love there, snap it up quickly!

These cards were made for a Stash Bash hop, which is a monthly hop where a bunch of crafters try and use up a stash of a particular type of product. 

Another scrappy friend of mine, Audrey Yeager hosted a fun Summer Scrappin YouTube series and here is my video for that:

And last, but not least, I do a ton of videos over at the Therm O Web YouTube Channel. I can't share them on my YouTube Channel though and I often don't have time to do new ones for my own channel. One of my favorite products of theirs is the Gina K for Therm O Web StampNFoil Line.

I created this video for the Winter 2018 line:

this one for the Fall 2018 release:

So that's it! If you want to see my Top Ten favs from 2018, start with the video at the top and be sure to enter my giveaway. There are a bunch of other crafters involved in the hop and I've listed all their videos in my YouTube description. If you want to dive into the techniques and products used to make my top 10, be sure to check out all the videos above!

Hey everyone! This week the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is to Floral Frenzy using Altenew products! Fortunately I had a couple of Altenew products that I hadn't used in a while and a few that I had recently purchased too!

I used the most detailed layer of the Painted Rose stamp set to create a very light background by repeatedly stamping it with Altenew Arctic Ink. Then I created the central focus image by stamping the new With Sympathy flower using two medium colors of Altenew inks.

I finished it off with the darkest color of ink in the series, Sapphire and stamped the sentiment with that. I added some Spectrum Noir Clear Shimmer and a few Tonic Studios Nuvo Jewel Drops. I used my Therm O Web Memory Runner XL to adhere everything together. I have a short video showing how I made the background, central image and pulled the card together:

If you're curious about any of the products I used, they will all be linked down below! Thanks for stopping by!

The Valentine's and Spring release from Poppystamps is AMAZING! And there are giveaways going on everyday so you definitely want to go over to their blog and check it out! For my post I used the Splendid Stitched Hearts Craft Die.

The hearts are all together one one day which makes it perfect to use both the negative and positive pieces!

You can create a die cut inlay or even a shaker card using both the negative and positive pieces.

I even created a video showing three ways to use this one die:

Hi everyone! I am up on the Queen and Co blog today sharing 4 new shaker cards I've created. Behind the scenes I have been busy creating tons and tons of shakers and so it was finally time to share a few!

I love the Foam Fronts because they make creating shaker cards SO easy!

I also love using the coordinating dies because then you can quickly customize your shaker card with any patterned paper or cardstock that you wish!

I used patterned papers from Queen and Co too and love all the bright colors!

I used a bunch of sentiment stamps from Paper Smooches too.

And speaking of stamping sentiments... I created this card with the sentiment stamped right inside the shaker for a different look!

Using pieces from the Foam Front kit and my MISTI, it was very easy to do!

I filmed a quick video to share some tips and tricks to stamping inside a shaker window. You can check it out here:
