All that Shimmers!
Welcome to another Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop! We've got the coolest theme for you today, METALLICA! Yep, I'm talking about GOLD AND SILVER!
You should be arriving from Mary Brown's fabulous blog, wasn't her project amazing! If you are just starting out here, welcome and enjoy the ride! Be sure to stop by all of the blogs to check out all of the cool cards we have for you today.
I pondered my card for awhile, there were so many ways I could go with this theme! Can you guess what I went with???
If you guessed SHAKER CARD then you know me well!! I got the Cottage Greetings Card Kit last week from Connie and Mary when I helped at their LIVE event, wasn't that sweet of them!! I had such a blast that day, I didn't want to go home!! Anyway, I knew I wanted to used this awesome kit for today's card and I wanted it to be my style. What's more my style than a SHAKER CARD!!
Most of my supplies for the card came from this kit. That's what so cool about these kits, you have everything you need at your finger tips. I cut a circle with framelits in the center of the floral wreath to start my shaker. Small flowers in Blushing Bride shake about with silver sequins from the kit. How did I get such a small flower?? Well, the TREE BUILDER punch was sitting on my desk and calling my name! This punch is for so much more than you think!
Once the shaker was done, the last piece of the puzzle was the sentiment. I wanted silver embossing but it just didn't look right with the Mint Macaron cardstock, it needed more depth. To the rescue was a bit of Basic Gray cardstock that had great contrast and complimented the wreath. Finally, a few extra sequins on the front gave the finished look I wanted. I love this fun shaker and hope you love it too!
Now, let's go see what Debbie Henderson has created for us, I know it's going to be awesome!
