Floral Shaker Cards Straight From The Garden
I'm sharing shaker cards created for the August challenge at Creative Embellishments. These cards are blooming with the colors of a beautiful garden in August.
Below is the image for the challenge. Let the image inspire you to create any project you want but you must use a product from Creative Embellishments.
I used some newly released designs to create my floral shaker. Here are the chipboard pieces used on this card:

I painted the chipboard with various layers of acrylic paint - starting with white/light ivory. I prefer the white/ivory as a base coat when I want the final chipboard project to be lighter or pastel.
The stippled effect on the chipboard pieces was caused by dabbing paint with a dry sea sponge.
The magic of a shaker card happens when the shaker mix is added. With that in mind, I picked my Creative Embellishments chipboard and shaker mix from 28 Lilac Lane / Buttons Galore and More. 28 Lilac Lane WISTERIA HUES Sequin Mix PS600 My paper choice for this card is from Stamperia - Lilac Flowers. It's a dreamy 12x12 floral collection with all the beautiful purple flowers and butterflies straight from the storybook garden.
I used some newly released designed to create the second floral shaker inspired by the August Challenge at Creative Embellishments.
I used 28 Lilac Lane's WISTERIA HUES Sequin Mix on this card as well. It's just a gorgeous mix of greens and purples with the prefect touch of rose pink.
Here are the chipboard and paper used on this second card.
