Mimi gave the new Build-A-Gumball Machine a cute holiday vibe to create a super cute Christmas in July shaker card!


Mimi created the shaker by stacking 4 layers of gumball machine with acetate between the top 2 layers. Then she dressed the gumball machine up with holiday fun including a Santa hat and holly from Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-On. She added additional mini holly from Shadow Box Card Fireplace Add-On.


She used glitter frosted mint candies from How You Bean? Mint Add-On. She stamped them first in festive colors of Distress Oxide ink using a Misti. Then she stamped again with embossing ink to heat emboss with glittery Unicorn Sparkle embossing powder.


Finally, she added a colorful greeting using the same Distress Oxide inks and Offset Sayings: Christmas. I love how she replaced the O with another mint! She used the smallest of the Small Mini Slimline Stackables as a sentiment banner. So clever!

Thanks so much for this brilliant card idea, Mimi! I love the pretty pink gumball machine and pastel mints!
