CRAFTY MERAKI - 2nd Anniversary Video Hop + Giveaway

Hello there,

Today I have the honor and great pleasure to be guest designing for Crafty Meraki. They are celebrating their 2nd anniversary so we're a bunch of crafters, all gathered to celebrate this amazing milestone in a video and Instagram hop, so make sure to check the description box under my video to get all the details about this hop!

I'm showcasing the super cute Magical Day stamp set and Stargazer mini slimline die today with a pop-up card and a shaker card. And I started off by stamping the images using Lawn Fawn jet black ink, I cut them all using my Scan'n Cut machine, and I used my alcohol markers to color everything. Next I added glitter to the stars, and moved on to the background.

I cut a bristol panel large enough to fit the different pieces I wanted to ink, and colored that piece of paper using salvaged patina, peacock feathers and wilted violet oxide inks. And I also added lots of splatters and textures to achieve the magical and dreamy look I had in mind.

Once the paper was dry, I cut the different pieces, and built the pop-up card. I invite you to watch the process video down below to get all the information. And next I attached some unicorns, stars and rainbow inside the box.

Now to the shaker card. I cut a 6,25 x 3,5 inches bristol panel, and used the sames oxide inks as the one I used before to make the background: salvaged patina, peacock feathers and wilted violet. And I added the same details and textures as well.

I cut three Stargazer panels out of white cardstock, and stuck one of them on a piece of clear acetate, and I attached the two other panels at the back. I added tiny silver star confetti into each star section, and then I stuck my oxide ink panel to totally close and finish my shaker panel.

I heat embossed my "Reach for the stars" sentiment in silver on a navy blue banner, the same navy blue cardstock I used on the first card, and attached it, as well as a unicorn, on the card using foam squares.

And that's it, a huge thank you to Crafty Meraki for inviting me, it was so much fun to create those two cards today. But I will be back in few days with another set of cards, so stay tuned!
