Hello Fellow Earthlings!!!! I am so excited to share this card for the Trinity Stamps Instagram Hop for their new release. This whole release just sings to my heart! From the stand-alone Arcade Machine to the "Claw" Machine. There are so many fun memories wrapped up in both those.
For this card, I decided to make the Arcade Machine Die Set into a shaker card, however, it also works perfectly with the new A-2 Window Box Card Die Set. I will have some more posts showing how to create that in addition to some YouTube process videos on my channel.
Back to this card........ when I make shaker cards, I prefer to use cardstock to build my shaker wells. For this card because there are so many components to make the machine, I cut multiple pieces of cardstock to build it up. Meaning, I cut eight pieces of cardstock for each component, such as the machine base, instrument panel, sign holder and the actual screen that creates the well for the shaker bits.
I filled the shaker well with the new Tangerine Sparkle Stars and the new Bubblegum Sparkle Stars along with a few Iridescent Kiwi Shaker Pops for extra movement and noise.
My little alien is from the Tiny Alien Die Set. I think he was just made for this card - just sayin.
To make a background that blended with the rest of my card, I used the Papercrafting Magic Coordinating Die Set. This die set has a ton of little dies that are perfect to make little filler pieces for background. It also has a stamp set which is perfect for giving instructions for interactive cards but I just needed the shapes for this background.
The sentiment on the inside of the shaker and the inside of the card was created using the 8-Bit Birthday Stamp Set. Talk about retro!!!! Love! Love! Love! The same set also has the tiny little stamps for the coin slots and the game panel instructions.
