Hello everyone! Hope you are all well and looking forward to spring!
I am really looking forward to warmer weather and for today's project
I'm using products from
I really was in the mood to make a shaker card. I hadn't made one for
a while and this stamp set is perfect! Let me show you how I made it!
I first stamped and heat embossed my image with gold embossing powder.
I used my sparkle watercolor paper cut down to an A2 size piece as I wanted
to color the image with Distress Watercolor Pencils.
I wanted to keep the flowers colorful.
Sometimes I used the same color to both base coat in and shade with.
Other times I added other colors.
I used Tumbled Glass for the sky - very sparingly!
Distress Watercolor Pencils used: Mustard Seed, Peeled Paint, Forest Moss,
Rustic Wilderness, Wild Honey, Candied Apple, Fired Brick, Shaded Lilac,
Blueprint Sketch, Gathered Twigs, Wilted Violet, Spun Sugar, Evergreen
Bough, Tumbled Glass, Seedless Preserves, Picked Raspberry.
I used glitter markers on the butterfly. I think some glitter watercolors
would have looked fabulous.
I die cut a postage frame out of some gold card stock and cut the
flower panel down a bit. I chose the green card stock to serve as
the base color. I knew you wouldn't be able to see much of it
as the postage stamp die is A2 size, but you can see peeks of it.
I adhered a piece of acetate to the frame and then used fairly
thick foam tape around the edges. I added my shaker fill
and adhered the colored panel to the back. I adhered this
shaker panel to front of my A2 size card base that was covered
with the green card stock. I added a sentiment from my
stash and my card was done!
I hope I've inspired you to make a colorful shaker using items
from your own stash! You can find this stamp and many more
fabulous crafty things at
Til next time...
