Hey friends!! I'm back with another video - this time as part of Day 1 of TWO days of blog hops sharing inspiration for Simon Says Stamp's Handmade Holiday Release!
In case you missed it I did a Release & Review video HERE <-----click! showing the entire Handmade Holiday Release. I also posted a card and video HERE using another product from this release.
There is also a FREE gift with any purchase going on for this hop! Shop at Simon Says Stamp <------click! and use the code HDMADE4U and get a Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide ink pad while supplies last!
AND there is also giveaway info at the end of this post!
OK on to my cards:
I have been LOVING making flat shaker cards lately. I have an entire playlist HERE on YouTube with all the videos I've created so far making them. I am loving them even more since I was shown by a lovely subscriber (thank you again Karen!) that you can hot foil ON the recycled packaging I've been using to make the flat shaker cards! I've shared two videos showing how to do that HERE and HERE if you missed them. And I couldn't resist doing it again today!
I used Simon's new Large Thank You Swirl Hot Foil Plate and foiled it onto the recycled packaging (I used the packaging that Simon's card stock comes in - so glad I've been holding on to all of it lol!) using my Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System and Teal and Viridian Green Glimmer Foils.
On the backgrounds for both cards I used the new Holiday Boho Circle Stencil with several Distress Oxide inks (all the specific colors used are listed and linked in the supplies below). I was inspired by the new Glimmering Pines Sequin Mix for the colors and of course used those sequins in the shakers for these cards.
On the insides of the cards I used the Holiday Boho Circle Stencil with Simon's Fossil ink, and then stamped sentiments from the Thankful Wreath stamp set with Peacock Feathers and Lucky Clover Distress Oxide inks and that was it!
To see how these cards came together check out my video below:

Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home and provide for my children! I appreciate your support more than words can say! I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!
