Studio Monday with Nina-Marie: Edge-to-Edge Birthday Shaker Card
Hello friends, it’s Nina-Marie Trapani here with you today featuring the pretty Birthday Cake die set from Paper Rose. I’m going to be creating an edge-to-edge shaker card behind the cake outline and fill it with a happy array of colorful sequins!
Inside my edge-to-edge shaker is a colorful, ink blended background that I created with our Simon exclusive Slimline Waves stencil. Our Simon brand inks apply and dry so smooth and soft, which is what I used to blend through the stencil.
The sequins inside the shaker are a mix of Studio Katia Rainbow Dots and Chunky Dots confetti. I also embellished the gold glittery cake with Rainbow Holographic sequins from our Simon brand.
This super-colorful shaker is SO much fun to make – you’re going to be hooked on edge-to-edge shaker cards after trying this project out! :) Watch the video and see for yourself!

Mixed Media with Shari Carroll: “C” for Carroll
Welcome everyone!! It’s Shari here with a mixed media project full of texture and meaning. I have a wall of “C’s” for the Carroll name, each one different, some framed, some that light up, they each embody a bit of our family. It’s a fun display!
My youngest son is getting married next year and he’s buying his first house, closing next month. I thought this was is a perfect time to start him on the “C” tradition. I’ve taken one of my “C’s” and traced it onto light cardboard to get this project started.
I’ve mixed textures and elements to represent him by using numbers and gears and also incorporated the softness of flowers for my future daughter-in-law. I am always more inspired when I design with people in mind. I hope I’ve given you the inspiration to do the same.
