Window Garden Slider Cards -Make a Scene Cards - Spellbinders by Becca Feeken

 


Time to look toward Spring. The stage is being set by Mother Nature and the Spring flowers are thinking about making an appearance very soon.  

Spellbinders is helping us build our own spring filled stage with it's new Make a Scene  collection designed by Becca Feeken.  This set is an interactive slider card collection designed with pull tab slider windows revealing a beautiful scene from your imagination.  

I created a garden window scene using Spellbinders Picture Perfect Window Scene,  just one of the coordinating die sets available in the collection.  The collection also includes: 




Today's slider greeting card was created using the 6x6 paper pad from the " Miles Apart" collection from Maja Design.    My choice in using this collection rises from a dark and gloomy winter in the COVID era.  I believe everyone could use both Spring and a hug.  This collection makes me think of both with gorgeous florals and delicate prints combined in lovely soft colors.  


This is a slider card with flaps that pull from the sides to create a stage with a scene when opened.  I am sure this will bring a smile to to person who slides it open revealing a hug.



Check out the Spellbinders entire Make a Scene  collection.  

 Send someone a hug today.  Thank you for stopping.

Bunnies in the Garden - Easter Bunny Shaker Card



Bunny Easter Shaker Card- Spellbinders Small Die of the Month

Let's shake up Spring and let a little Easter fun into our lives by making shaker cards!  Happy, joyful, colorful and oh so easy - with the help of Spellbinders  Small Die of the Month for March. 

The March die set offers adorable cuteness full of bunnies, florals....and carrots?  Yep!  What could be cuter than a big carrot shaker for Spring and Easter? You can see the Small Die of the Month image below.

Making the Shaker
The carrot makes for a great shaker with a few simple adaptations because the design is simple and has a large area to use as a shaker.  

Foam:  Run some adhesive foam through the die cutter to create the thickness needed to create the base of shaker. Here are a few inexpensive adhesive foam options ( see images below)

Acrylic: There are acrylic windows for crafting and cardmaking - simple to use and can easily be cut to size. I prefer the free method of saving and re-claiming acrylic from packaging - any product I use that has a clear acrylic window gets set aside and stored for later shaker use.

As if the bunnies weren't sweet enough, I added some additional elements to turn this card into an Easter Egg-stravaganza shaker.  

The shaker mix makes the magic happen.  I used Orange Crush Sprinkletz from Buttons Galore.  These are adorable little polymer clay pieces resembling tiny candy sprinkles and "mints".  Perfect for easter candy inside the carrot shaker.
