Alice Shaker Card

By KariV on February 22, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have an Alice Shaker Card and video to share! Today I used the Nested Keyhole die set and Key to My Heart die set from Miss Ink Stamps.

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

You might know that I love to make Alice cards, and when I get a chance to make an Alice card AND a shaker card together…well that’s just awesome!

I also brought in two favorite stencils (and I have many favorite Miss Ink Stencils that work so well with Alice cards!): Vintage Keyholes, and Rabbit Hole stencil. Can you see that subtle design in the very back of the shaker panel?

I used different shades of blue glitter paper along with some silver metallic cardstock to cut out the heart keys and heart lockets. Such a cute die set!

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

I hope you love a good shaker card as much as I do! Thanks for stopping by!

Magical City Pull-Tab card

By KariV on February 16, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello, today I have a Magical City Pull-Tab card that is so much fun! I’m creating the scene with some awesome images from Popsicle Sticks (who has a shop on Etsy). The Pull-Tab die set is also from Popsicle Sticks.

Watch the video below or on YouTube;

It’s so much fun to pull that tab and see the building pop up! I love this set…image all the things you could have pop up! I just adore these images, too. Such a fun, Magical city!

Aren’t these images so cute? I am loving them so much. Thanks for stopping by today!

Postage Valentine Cards

By KariV on February 8, 2025 in Holidays, Paper Crafting, Valentines

Hello! Today I have 2 Postage Valentine Cards to share using more new products from Miss Ink Stamps. I love how many different looks you can get with these sets!

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

My first card brings together quite a few sets (some mini sets, too!) to create this fun postage Always card. I love all these new sets: Look at those little letters! The faux wax seal is from the Postage Seal and Shaker Collection.

I couldn’t resist creating a second card with many same elements, but bringing in the SWAK Hearts Postage die set. It was begging to include the Queen of Heart on the heart postage! See how I masked her off for the postage heart in the video.
