Sunny Studio - Rounded Rectangle Windows Shaker Card

Hello there,

I'm back on the Sunny Studio blog with this lovely Valentine winter shaker card showcasing the Rounded Rectangle Windows die set. If you're a fan of shaker cards like me, you will love the different sizes of dies and all the possibilities to create multiple styles of shakers! I personally look forward to using this die set again on other projects! I'm also featuring one of my favorite stamp sets from the Fall & Winter 2024 release, Snowmen In Sweaters, and since Valentine's Day happens during the winter season, I thought it would be fun to mix those two themes and create a super cute and fun card.

I started off by stamping the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. As always I cut them all using the matching dies, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers. Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Snowmen In Sweaters - snowmen, trees, snowflakes • Scenic Route - houses, lights • Bighearted Bears - envelopes.

I cut two large Rounded Rectangle Mat panels out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock and created the same landscape on both panels: a snowy border using tumbled glass and peacock feathers oxide inks, and the sky using spun sugar, worn lipstick and festive berries oxide inks.

Once they both were dry, I set one panel aside for later, and cut three Rounded Rectangle Windows out of the second panel using the third smallest die from the set, and stamped my "Love you snow much" greeting from Bighearted Bears and Feeling Frosty right below the windows. At the back of my window panel, I attached a piece of acetate using liquid glue, and added foam strips on the four edges of the panel and all around the windows as well. I poured crystal stones and red heart confetti inside each window, attached the houses on the first panel using liquid glue, and stuck that panel to the foam strips to totally close my shaker panel.

I attached my Rounded Rectangle Mat shaker panel to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches white card base, and stuck the images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. I added a dot of glossy accents to each light, white blizzard nuvo drops to the snow on the trees, and finally highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.
