Tomorrow is my Hubby’s birthday! So, today I am sharing with you my Roll With It Shaker Card that I plan to give to him. I thought a shaker card would be so fun! It is using two stamp sets, Whiskey Business and Game On, that are perfect for him! We love to play games and have game time with our friends and family on a regular basis! Now he can shake the card and his dice will always come up 6 and 5! LOL! I even coloured the dice with the Real Red and Just Jade Stampin’ Blends to match the ones that he uses. In addition to gaming, he loves his single malt scotch and is always trying different types.

Details of My Roll With It Shaker Card

For my card, I wanted to create a masculine feel. So, the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper with Early Espresso card stock was perfect for it! I use the two largest Stitched Nested Labels to create my window frame. I stamped the checkerboard in Memento Black off twice before I randomly stamped it a third time on my Whisper White background piece. Once I did this, I created my shaker part with Foam Adhesive Strips, a piece of Window Sheet, a pinch of Woven Threads Sequins and my “dice”.

For the dice and the scotch, I stamped them on Whisper White with Memento Black. I then used my Stampin’ Blends to colour them. The dice were Real Red Dark/Light and Just Jade Dark/Light with Cinnamon Cider Dark/Light for the ground. The Scotch was Cinnamon Cider Dark/Light and Mango Melody Dark with Balmy Blue Light and Color Lifter for the glass. Once these were coloured, I fussy cut them out.

The sentiment stamped in Memento Black from Game On with a splash of Real Red behind it was perfect for my card! The finishing touch was decorating the inside by combining the two stamp sets again to create my sentiment.

I was honoured to be asked to virtually demonstrate in a Facebook Live my Blends Colouring Techniques to some fellow demonstrators. So, I thought I would share for Technique Tuesdays some of my colouring techniques from the live video each week highlighting a card that I presented. The first card that I am highlighting this week is my Whiskey Business Card. I hope you will check back each week and maybe learn something new!

This card is perfect for that man in your life who loves his whiskey! This can be a Father’s Day card, a birthday card, a congratulations card…so many options. For this card, I wanted to create an old-world library kind of feel with the whiskey on a brass platter waiting for someone to help themselves. The World of Good Designer Series Paper with the wood image lends itself very well to that feel. The Early Espresso Faux Suede Ribbon and the buckle from the Antiqued Corners & Slides Elements both add to this feel as well.
