How to Make a Shaker Cake Card

The coordinating dies for the Big & Bold line take big stamping to a whole new level. And today, I want to share with you how to use the Birthday Cake stamps and dies to create a shaker card.


You can watch me create a shaker card on last night's Del & Artie Live, here. In the video, I used the Sympathy Rose stamps and dies, but the process of creating a window and backing it with acetate and popping it all up on foam tape is the same.



To create this card, I followed these steps:

  1. First, I stamped the Big & Bold Birthday Cake image with black ink.

  2. Then, I colored in the cake layers in rainbow order, leaving the rest uncolored.

  3. Next, I stamped and die cut the layers out of another panel and colored it in with Neutral Gray and Violet Copic markers.

  4. Then, I covered the slice with a mask and airbrushed a rainbow background down the top two thirds of panel.

  5. After that, I adhered a sheet of acetate behind the die cut panel with liquid adhesive.

  6. I poured some Crater Lake Sequins from Catherine Pooler on to the first cake, then popped up the window panel with foam tape.

  7. To finish off the card, I stamped and trimmed down a sentiment and added it to the front.



To create the second card:

  1. I score a card base with a bone folder and a Scor-Pal to create a diamond scored pattern on the front.

  2. Then, I stamped and die-cut the cake slice and colored it with cream colored Copics.

  3. I backed the slice with acetate, poured some Vegas Baby sequin mix under it and popped it up over the card base with foam tape.

  4. Next, I created a sentiment strip for the front from the Best Life stamp set.

  5. To finish off the project, I used the mask from the first project to cover the slice, then airbrushed the card with Copic YG23 and splattered it with Nuvo Gold Mousse and a little water.


I hope you enjoyed these projects as much as I enjoyed creating them. Thanks so much for spending a few moments with me today!

The instructions are easy to follow, and the visuals make the process feel achievable even for beginners. The way you explained the topic was very clear and helpful, and I recently came across a similar discussion on a review blog that offered an interesting perspective as well. It also connects with ideas I’ve seen on https://www.rosedalewellness.com/ about creativity being a great way to relax and stay mentally refreshed. A thoughtful and motivating guide for crafters of all levels.

Can the same shaker card technique be used Stickman with other stamps besides the Birthday Cake set?
