Hi there! Today’s video shows how to create window cards easily with interactive dies and an array of colorful sequins and embellishments. If you struggle to create these interactive cards I have a few tips to share along the way that can help make the process easier!
For the first card, I used the Peekaboo Windows dies to create an interactive card that reveals the shaker on the inside. There are a ton of dies in this set, so you can have fun with a bunch of windows! I used the biggest window die to create a little chicken coop on the inside. Then, I quickly colored images from the Birdie Friends stamp set using Copic Markers and adhered them to the inside of the cut-out window.
For both of the cards, I adhered a piece of a large stamp pocket on the back of the window behind the images. I like using the pockets because they are a nice quality thick plastic and I am able to use them in many shaker cards. I added a piece of fun foam to the back with a hole cut out the size of the window opening. This saves money and you don’t have to use up all of your foam tape. Finally, I filled the card with a variety of different sequins (linked below) and sealed off the window with a card base.
For the second example, I used the Stitched Pieces die to create three window openings with faux stitched edges (that I love)! I also stamped and colored images from the Fox Friends stamp set and cut them out using the coordinating dies. To finish off this card, I repeated the same process, but I created three separate openings for colorful sequins to shake around in.
