Hello crafty friends! Today I'm sharing a card inspired by one of my favorite children's books, "Martha Speaks"! Just like Martha loves to gobble up alphabet soup and gain the power of speech, this card features a fun, interactive shaker element that brings a playful touch to any occasion. I used a wonderful array of products from Trinity Stamps to bring this literary-inspired design to life.

To create this card, I started by die-cutting a bowl shape from green and red cardstock, as well as a piece of acetate, using the Alphabet Soup Die Set. I then die-cut the smaller circle from the center of the green bowl to create the opening for my shaker. After assembling the shaker with a mix of yellow die-cut letters from the same set and adorable Peas & Carrots Clay Embellishments, I adhered it to a circular card base cut using the Circle Shaped Card Die Set.
For a nod to Martha's talking abilities, I die-cut a speech bubble from red cardstock using the Insider Sentiments Speech Bubbles Die Set and spelled out "Martha Speaks" using individual letters. To complete the scene, I die-cut the cutest little dog from the Paw-rents Stamp & Die Set using yellow and brown cardstock, adding stamped details in brown and black inks, and a sweet red collar with a tiny yellow tag. Finally, I stamped the "you're the best" sentiment in black ink, die-cut it with its coordinating die, and adhered both the sentiments and the adorable dog to the card front. This card is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face, reminding them that just like Martha, they are truly the best!
