Hi there! Long time no post, eh? It’s been a festive blur! Hope you all had a wonderful holiday. I’m happy to finally get some crafty time and share a project I created featuring the Outline Floral Frame die. I die cut this gorgeous floral frame with white cardstock and colored it using my Copics.
I backed the frame with acetate and created a full card shaker. For the background I blended some distress inks in Spun Sugar, Spiced Marmalade & Squeezed Lemonade. I also flicked some of the inks along with white acrylc ink. Then I stamped a beautiful sentiment from the So Loved stamp set.
To fill the shaker I used some Heart Confetti & sequin mixes. Also want to mention that the foam strips are a dream to use for shakers like these. They are pre-cut, thin strips of foam tape and make it so effortless for shaker making.
Before the new year comes and goes I just want to take a moment and thank you for your support & encouragement this year. I appreciate every kind word & comment you leave, and feel so fortunate that you take the time to stop by. Here’s to another year of inspiration, humor & crafty goodness! YOU’RE THE BESTEST💗
Also announcing a winner from my Honey Bee Stamps post.
Congratulations raggiodiluce82!

December 30, 2018 at 10:37 amThat is gorgeous! It took me a second to realize it was a shaker, I thought at first that you had cut up teeny tiny bits of foam tape to put behind that die cut. I wish you and your family all the best for 2019 and look forward to more of your beautiful creations.
