Welcome back for day 2!

So, there is one card that I don't do and that is a Shaker Card...until now that is!

I found two tips that made this card so wasy and less frustrating for me.
1st came from SBC DT Janie Rinta- she shares how she makes a shaker element here on You Tube but my biggest take away is that she "de-statics" the acetate so the sequins don't stick!!! What a cool trick!  The 2nd comes from Prairie Paper and Ink and she shows how you can bend foam tape to make a circle!  Genius!!! Here is her video.

So with those tips in mine, I was able to get my card done and it shakes like a charm!



Stamp set used for this card is Calendar 2013



Hope you like todays card...

Building Block Graduation Card

Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
