Shake Up Your Birthday Celebrations!
Of all the happy days we celebrate throughout the year, birthdays are one of our favorite occasions to craft for! Handmade cards are always a hit, commemorative scrapbook pages make treasured keepsakes, and all of them present an awesome opportunity to flex your creative muscles!
Today, we’re going to give you an insider’s look at how to shake up your cake day crafts with our Birthday Numbers Stamp + Thin Cuts set! We’ll be showing off one of our favorite ways to use these stamps and Thin Cuts—in shaker windows!
The Birthday Numbers Stamp + Thin Cuts set is available in our May–June catalog. (To view this set, along with all the other exciting products in this catalog, click here!) The Birthday Numbers Stamp + Thin Cuts set includes 10 metal dies and 22 stamps, all of which were designed to help crafters celebrate in style!
Now that we’ve introduced you to the Birthday Numbers Stamp + Thin Cuts set, we want to show you all the fun that comes with using this bundle to create your own birthday-themed shaker windows! In our blog post from last week, we taught you how to construct these fun, interactive elements, so if you’re not familiar with how to build shaker windows, we suggest that you go back and take a look at last week’s post to see how easily they come together.
One of the standout features of the Birthday Numbers Stamp + Thin Cuts set are the whimsical characters that accompany the sentiments and icons in the stamp set. These fairy tale figures make a delightful addition to any birthday craft!
When you incorporate these characters into a shaker window and fill it with a few sparkly sequins, beads, or gems, they become even more magical! Because these character stamps are designed to fit inside our Circle Shaker Windows, you can easily create a shaker window using any of these stamps as a backdrop. You can even play around with other shaker window shapes, like hearts, stars, or rectangles! You can see in the examples above that shaker windows make a great addition to your card fronts, but we encourage you to try adding them to your scrapbook pages as well! When you incorporate a shaker window as an accent on your page, it instantly adds some interactive excitement that makes the whole page sparkle!
Whether your shaker window graces the front of a card or provides an unforgettable accent for a scrapbook page, it’s a sure-fire way to up your crafting game, especially when using the Birthday Numbers Stamp + Thin Cuts set! With so many creative options available with the Birthday Numbers Stamp + Thin Cuts set, it makes birthday crafting an absolute joy. Do you have a favorite stamp from this set?
