Tricks & Treats Shaker Card

This shaker card project brings to the forefront a sensational collection that will not only ignite your imagination but also add a touch of mystique to your creative endeavors. Introducing the mesmerizing TRICKS & TREATS and BAG OF BONES Bundles, two spellbinding assemblages that will bewitch both seasoned crafters and enthusiastic beginners alike.

But that’s not all! Complementing these hauntingly beautiful bundles is the remarkable THEM BONES Designer Series Paper. Immerse yourself in its intricate patterns and hauntingly specter-inspired motifs, created with meticulous attention to detail. From skeletal silhouettes to ornate houndstooth cats, this paper evokes an atmosphere of eerie elegance that will add a touch of allure to any project.

To further elevate your creations, give them a hauntingly realistic texture with the OLD WORLD PAPER 3D Embossing Folder. Watch in awe as your cardstock transforms, bringing to life an aged and weathered appearance reminiscent of ancient manuscripts and a perfect background.

For this creative shaker card project, you have the option to choose between two fantastic materials to stamp your Frankenstein: Granny Apple Green Card stock or the GLOW IN THE DARK 6″x 6″ Specialty Paper. Both choices yield charming outcomes, so it ultimately depends on the look and feel you want to achieve.

If you decide to go with Granny Apple Green Card stock, you can expect a vibrant and eye-catching base for your Frankenstein shaker card. The vibrant green color adds a playful and fun element to your design and pairs well with other Halloween-themed embellishments. The Frankenstein stamp and die will stand out beautifully against the green backdrop, allowing you to create a card that captures the spooky essence of Halloween.

On the other hand, if you opt for the GLOW IN THE DARK 6″x 6″ Specialty Paper, you’ll add an extra touch of magic and the WOW factor to your shaker card. Imagine the excitement when the lights go out, and your Frankenstein creation starts to glow! Stamp the images with STAZON INK and the glow-in-the-dark effect adds a unique and captivating element to your project, making it a real showstopper. Kids and adults alike will be delighted by the enchanting surprise when the lights dim. Add the GLOW-IN-THE-DARK BAT & GHOSTS as embellishments for added fun!

Whichever material you decide to use, the TRICKS & TREAT bundle provides you with a quality stamp and die set that ensures precise and detailed results. The Frankenstein design is iconic and instantly recognizable, making it a fantastic choice for Halloween-themed crafts.
