Hello friends!! Wow.. we had a crazy windstorm last night! Once, again, I had to deflate our Santa to make sure he didn't blow away. My little guy was rather worried that he still would even after I took him down! Today it is partly sunny with very little wind... hoping it stays that way! This morning I took some time to make a little shaker card for a couple of challenges: CASology (silver) and Colour Me! (silver and navy).
A few weeks ago I purchased the Hero Arts Stamp & Cuts set "Let It Snow" at my local craft store. When I saw the set I thought it would be perfect for making a shaker card. This is a pretty simple card, but given that it was a shaker it still took me way too long to make! Sigh... I'm shaker challenged, lol! After I cut the top piece to the size I wanted I die cut the opening using the die that came in the set. I then positioned the panel on my card base and stamped the snowflake in the opening using Night of Navy ink. I trimmed off a bit more of bottom, added some silver glitter paper and then stamped the sentiment in navy ink. To finish the shaker element I surrounded the snowflake with foam tape and placed silver and clear sequins inside. A piece of clear cardstock (acetate) was adhered over the opening, more foam tape added to the piece and then it was adhered to the card base.
Thanks for stopping by...
