TABH Challenge 26

Welcome to the Three Amigos Blog Hop. We are three friends with a love for stamping and paper crafting, and would like to share our creative ideas with you on the 3rd of each month. There are only three stops on this hop, so it will only take a few minutes to hop through. When you finish hopping, be sure to check out the Three Amigos Blog Hop Challenge!

Our May challenge is anything with a food or drink theme. This challenge was the perfect opportunity to pull out the new My Cup of Tea Stamp + Thin Cuts. I pulled in a couple papers from the Craft On and Mix-In paper packs and new sequins to make a shaker card.

The teacup and sentiment are stamped with Charcoal Ink and embossed with clear powder to create the backdrop for the shaker window. I use the coordinating Thin Cut for the window and added Rose Gold Sequins for shaker elements.

Fussy cut flowers and a mix of Rose Gold and Crafty Sequins finish off the front of the card.

I added a couple strips of the patterned paper, another fussy cut flower, and a few sequins to finish the inside.

Three Amigos Blog Hop Challenge #19

Welcome to the Three Amigos Blog Hop. We are three friends with a love for stamping and scrapping, and would like to share our creative ideas with you on the 3rd of each month. There are only three stops on this hop, so it will only take a few minutes to hop through. When you finish hopping, be sure to check out the Three Amigos Blog Hop Challenge!

This month's theme is anything Halloween or Fall. I decided to create some shaker fun with the leafy frame image in the Grateful Heart- Scrapbooking stamp set.

I stamped the frame image onto the light side of Almond Cardstock with VersaMark ink and heat embossed with the new Ranger Copper Tinsel Embossing Powder. Oh my! The tinsel embossing powders create a gorgeous glittery shimmer! The copper color is perfect for a fall card. I picked up a tiny bit of ink with a water brush to add a splash of color to the leafy images, then fussy-cut out the center of the frame to create my shaker window. The little confetti hearts were cut with the new Shaker Window & Confetti Thin cuts from a scrap piece of cardstock that I embossed with the Copper Tinsel Embossing Powder before running through the Cuttlebug. The sentiment is from the Boutique- Scrapbooking stamp set.

For the inside, I only inked up the top left and bottom right corners of the leafy frame stamp. I added a bit of color and a few shimmery confetti hearts.
