Come and Make Shaker Cards with Me and Queen & Company!

-

 I LOVE Queen & Company shaker cards.  One of my best friends started showing me their products years ago and I fell in love with the ease of making them.

They have so many kits available to purchase.  To find them visit Queen & Co (queenandcompany.com)

Come Craft Queen & Co. with Me!

I recently purchased their hot air balloon shaker card kit and their suitcase shaker card kit.

The hot air balloon kit includes enough product to make 4 cards minus the shaker toppings or shaker bits.  Once you are done with their precut shaker components, you can purchase more or make your own with the dies included in the kit.

You get:

4 envelopes
4 cards shaped as hot air balloons
4 acetate covers
4 shaped foams
3 dies (The hot air balloon, outline die, and basket die)

I love that you can use any color paper and it comes out beautiful.

All the sentiments were done with different die sets that I own.

As you can see below I used some floral papers, bakers twine, sequins for my toppings,  inked the sides with walnut distress oxide, and used my shimmer brushes for a touch of glitter.




I love the way they turned out.  You can add any sentiment, I chose birthday cards because I have a ton of birthdays coming up.


Below are some suitcase shakers I made as well.  Again, the kit came with the cards (6 cards in this kit), and dies but not the outline die.  You can purchase that separately but being a rectangle I am pretty sure I can just cut some acetate if I want to make a few more.  I wasn't sure how much I would like a suitcase but I think its super cute.








Queen and Company have a ton of shaker kits and they add more very often.  If you own any, which are your favorites?

Come and make your own sublimation spray with me!

  Come make some sublimation spray with me! You are asking yourself what is sublimation spray and what is it used for? Well, as you may or may not know, you have to sublimate on polyester.  The higher the % of polyester the higher chance your image will stay on the item you are subbing on. Well, I found a way to make some spray that you can spray on cotton or any other fabric and it will sublimate.   For instance, I tried sublimating on this random patch I have.  I don't know what it is made of so i wanted to see if it would work.  It didn't.   Random Patch with no sub spray: Then I made the sublimation spray. Items you need: Polycrylic protective finish, I used clear satin but you can use clear matte as well. Spray Bottle Water Then your usual sublimation products: Sub paper Sub printer Heat press Fabric to sublimate on To make the spray, use 8 ounces of water and 2 tablespoons of Polycrylic.  Mix them together into a jar (I used a mason jar to keep the excess available.)  Pou
