You Melt My Heart Shaker Card


Thank you to Crafters Home for featuring us on their blog today!

This darling die can be used to make a shaker card as shown here or a full snowman
that you can embellish as you wish.

Sequins
Acetate sheet



Cut a Sam E. Snowman Shaker Die  out of each:  card stock, acetate sheet and craft foam. 
Tip: I layer the card stock and craft foam and cut together for a perfect fit.
Cut hat, nose, scarf and hat band out of desired colored card stock ~ I chose the Holly for his hat (other options come with this die set)  I used the Tranquil Tree Die for the arms.


 Assemble
snowman shaker, by layering outer card stock, acetate sheet, craft foam die cut
shape.  



Add sequins then layer backing on top of the sequin/foam sandwich.   I used a light blue paper for the back of the shaker to show off the white sequins.



                  Completed Snowman shaker              
                                 

 
 Create the background I used Simply Snowflakes Stamp Set  and clear embossed with Ranger Ink Embossing Ink and Clear Embossing Powder onto navy card stock cut using the largest Polka Dot Rectangle Backdrop Die, and then I used Distress Spray Stain in Picket Fence onto the Dainty Dots Background Builder Stamp, stamped onto the card stock then dried with the heat gun to give the effect of little snowflakes.

 Cut
the largest 
Basic Rectangle Backdrop Die out of white and adhered the Navy
embossed/stained piece on top.


  Cut
the largest 
Basic Oval Backdrop Die Set out of white and layered onto the Polka Dot Oval Backdrop Die Set out of Navy card stock, layer together and adhere. 

 Adhere
Oval layers onto the card base of Navy and White card stock.

Adhere
the assembled Snowman Shaker onto the oval layer.

 Die
cut sentiment strip from the 
Vintage Frame Die Set, stamp sentiment from the Frosty Stamp and Die Collection  and add
heart die cut from the Frosty coordinating die.  Pop out using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Foam Squares.

And there you have a Darling Snowman Shaker card!
