Every Good Thing┃Shaker Tag & Matching Card

Happy Sunday, crafty friends! On today’s blog I’d like to share with you this set of “Shaker Tag & Matching Card” made using a full array of stamp and die sets by Pinkfresh Studio. So, without further ado let’s jump right into the step by step on how I’ve made them ↓

To begin with, I started by lining up over a white card panel the large tag die from the Essentials: Shaker Tags and once I had them lined up, I ran them through my Platinum 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine. Therefore, after I had the first die-cutting tag done, I repeated the same step 3 more times to get 3 more white die-cutting tags. So, once I had that done, I lined up over one of the white die-cutting tags one of the large shaker window dies and I ran them through the die-cut machine.

Therefore, after I’ve had the shaker window over the die-cutting tag, I placed one of the die-cutting tags over my scoring board and I went ahead to score a lined over it at 1/4 of an inch mark. So, after I had that done, I folded the scoring line and I went ahead to get adhered a strip of doubled-sided tape. Then, right after that I peeled off the backing of the double-sided tape and I carefully got adhere a second die-cutting tag creating that way not only a hinge but, also creating the card base with the shape of a tag.

Thus, after I had the card base done, I lined up the gift card notch die over the top side of the card base and I ran it through the die-cut machine, and once I had that done , I set the card base aside and I proceeded to get the stamping and embellishment done.

Moving on, for the stamping I went ahead to place one of the die-cutting tags inside the stamping tool and then, I lined up over it the Color Block: Gradiating Stripes Cling Stamp. Once both were lined up, I carefully got each of the stripes from the stamp, stamped with the following color inks: Misty Coast, Peach Fuzz, Mint, Ocean Breeze and Storm. Therefore, once I had the stamping done, I removed the tag from the stamping tool, and I went ahead to get it adhered with double-sided tape over the tag-card base. Lastly, after I had that done, I adhered with double-sided tape a piece of acetate to the last die-cutting tag, and once I had that done, I added crystal sequins over the card base, and I finished the shaker-shaped card base by mounting with craft foam and double-sided tape the die-cutting tag with the shaker window. Finally, after I’ve finished the shaped-card base, I added the last touches by gluing down a sentiment (as shown in the image above) which by the way, I had previously stamp, gold heat emboss and fussy cut out of a piece of white cardstock, as well as a floral piece which I also stamped and die-cut it out of white cardstock using one of the floral images from the Charming Floral Wreath Stamp Set and its coordinated die from the Charming Floral Wreath Die Set.
NOTE: The sentiment used in the shaker tag is included in the Sending Love and Hugs Stamp Set.

For the matching card, I lined up over a white card panel the Color Block: Gradiating Stripes Die and once I had them lined up, I went ahead to run them through the die-cut machine not to die-cut it out but, to get a dry emboss impression so I could add texture to the card panel. So, once I had that done, I trimmed the edges down from it and I went ahead to get it adhered with double-sided tape to an A2 top folding white card base. Thus, right after that I mounted with craft foam and double-sided tape a die-cutting white tag to add dimension, and then I set the card base aside to get the stamping and die-cutting done.

For the stamping, I went ahead to stamp the wreath from the Every Good Thing Stamp Set using the same color inks so, once I had the stamping done, I lined up the coordinated die from the Every Good Thing Die Set and I run them through the die-cut machine to cut it out of the cardstock. Therefore, once I had that step done, I went ahead to die-cut a second wreath out of gold cardstock and once I had that done, I glued down a bit offset to the right with liquid glue the stamped wreath over the gold wreath. Lastly, I glued down the wreath over the card base, and last but not least, I finished the card off by stamping and gold heat embossing a sentiment inside the wreath.

Finally, after I had finished the shaker tag and matching card, I decided to add the last touches to them so, for that I glued down with liquid glue here and there jewels and a translucent bow to each tag which I’ve had previously die-cut and assembled using the beautiful Artistic Bows Die Set, translucent vellum and glitter gold cardstock.
