Hello there my stamping friends! Over the last 2 weeks I have been sharing the Enchanted Woods release from Trinity Stamps over on my YouTube channel. If you have missed any of the videos check out my Trinity Stamps Playlist.
Today I am sharing a few more of the products from this fun new release. I'll be making a shaker card using the Floral Mini Slimline Die. And a super cute stamp set; Tiny Fairy Silhouette's. But I am not stopping with a shaker card, I added another interactive element to this card, it also lights up!
To make this card light up, I used the One Light from Pear Blossom Press. It is the newest in their line of user friendly light products for paper crafting. The One Light has got to be the easiest light I have ever used to make a card!
You can see this card come together in this video. If you can not see the video up on your screen, you can also view it right here.
So, what do you think of the One Light??? Pretty easy! And there are so many different ways you can used this fun little light. I think it would be lots of fun to add to a scrapbook page too.
Here's another look at the card.
Let's chat about the shaker on this card. I knew the background could not be too busy and with this intricate floral die cut as my background and then filled with shaker bits, it had the potential to be very busy looking. Here's how I kept the background from distracting from the focal images on this card. I die cut the Floral Mini Slimline cover die from gold mirror card stock. After adding a window sheet to the back of that and foam tape around the edges I used Diamond Dust to fill. Diamond Dust is clear, cut glass pieces. It's gorgeous. And being that it is clear, it will not only look like fairy dust, but not be too much of a distraction in the background. I could have backed my shaker with white card stock and the pattern in the floral panel would have really stuck out. Instead I chose brushed gold card stock. This is very similar in color to the gold mirror card stock I used on the front of the card, but still with a bit of contrast. This made for a very cool shaker that was not to overwhelming for the fairies on the front.
For my Tiny Fairy Silhouettes I stamped and embossed each using specialty embossing powders from WOW.
These solid images are perfect for using your unique embossing powders with. I used the Party Popper collection of powders. Each powder has larger flecks of white and gold embossing powder suspended in the color powder. When this melts you have an awesome speckled image.
The One Light fit perfectly behind this 1-3/4" circle. I love that I was able to add a light up element to my shaker card because this light has so few parts and is small. I used a paper piercer to poke holes in the center of the sparkles. This creates a concentrated spot fo the light to shine through.
