Hi, Jingle here today with a super fun CAS card that sparkles and shines! We all need a little more glitter in our lives, don’t we? Well, let’s get to this sweet Sparkling Hello!
Clean and Simple (CAS) design does not have to be boring! For this card, we explore how to create a multi-colored shaker with loads of glitter on a super clean design.
Sparkling Hello Card Panel
To begin, die-cut the Hello from a simple white panel of cardstock. This die is from MFT stamps and has all of your letters together, making it easy to keep it aligned. It also has plenty of room for our adhesives, allowing us to create individual compartments for each letter’s shaker filler.
Create a Shaker Feature
Next, you want to adhere a sheet of clear film for the shaker cover. I like to use the E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser (aka Vellum Runner) for this, as it has a strong hold for the plastic sheet and you don’t risk any visibility because it is clear.
To create the individual compartments for the shaker filler, I reached for the 3D Foam Strips. These are narrow and long, making it so simple to create these perfect spots for the glitter! I added two pieces of Crafty Foam Tape White 54ft to the top portion of the panel to make it simple to add to my card base later.
Glitter All The Things
And now we get to the fun bit! GLITTER! Choose the glitter colors you would like to use and then, carefully pour a good amount into each compartment. I use a small, soft paintbrush to push any that may have tried to get on the strips back into the spaces.
Once you have the glitter in place, gently remove the backing of each adhesive strip and adhere another white panel to the back of the design, sealing in the glitter. You can then adhere the shaker to a card base using the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.
Finally, add a finishing touch with some coordinating enamel dots from Doodlebug Designs.
And there you have it, folks! A super sparkly clean and simple design that is bound to bring a smile to your recipient’s face!
Thanks so much for stopping by today and Happy creating!
