Love and Rainbows - Shaker Cards

Rainbows, Love and Shaker Cards

Today I am presenting cards full of love.  The two cards don't match in style but the theme is the same...hearts, love, and Creative Embellishments fabulously fun shakers. 

My cards featured today were created using the following chipboard shaker designs from Creative Embellishments: 



         Heart Shaker
           Creative Embellishments - Heart Shaker Set                 

Love Shaker Set



The first card uses the versatile Heart Shaker Set simply painted white.  I try to keep the shaker sets less complex so the shaker becomes the star and not the technique used on the chipboard. 

In this angled view, you can also see I have painted the inside edges of the chipboard as well.  I like to do this to create a clean look.  


How to fill your shaker card? 
Shakers are so much fun to create and filling them is every bit as fun.  I used fabulous shaker mix from Buttons Galore and More/28 Lilac Lane.   The fillers come in a variety of colors and mixes with sequins, dew drops, shapes, beads, buttons and so much more. 

This particular shaker is filled with newly released and super fun shaker mix from Buttons Galore and More: Buttons Galore -Sprinkletz Candy Hearts.  These are sweet polymer clay hearts that look a lot like those favorite candy hearts.

They are easy to use and tend not to react to static inside the shaker as much as glitter and sequins.
.

In addition to the bold bright shaker mix, the paper is equally bold and cheerful.  It's Sunny Studio  -SUMMER SPLASH  paper.
The summer designs and bright colors make me smile.

This is the second card - very different with a romantic vibe.  
This shaker was made using Creative Embellishments - Love Shaker Set in it's natural kraft chipboard state.  No treatments needed to be done to the chipboard because it matches well with the paper.  

Here is the side view.  The LOVE shaker is such a smart and beautiful design. 


The shaker mix on this card is also from Buttons Galore and More/28 Lilac Lane.  It's a rich gold blend of traditional round sequins, fun stars and hearts shaped sequins and a coordinating collection of beads.

My paper choice for this card is from Graphic 45 LOVE NOTES 8 x 8 Paper Pad 4501825 The 8x8 paper pad is rich and filled with the perfect blend of black, red and cream.  I love that color combination.

Let's All Party - Happy Collection by Spellbinders and Sharyn Sowell


Let's All Party - Spellbinders "Happy" Collection by Sharyn Sowell

Today I am celebrating Spellbinders new "Happy" collection  designed by Sharyn Sowell.  

Not only is the collection happy, it's filled with darling imagery, whimsy and heart warming silhouette scenes.  I selected the irresistible die, "Let's All Party", with a variety of "party animals" celebrating as animals do...with cake in the forest, of course.

The silhouette idea has been modified a bit to be a shadowed silhouette by adding a layer of color in front of the black die cuts.  Each colored silhouette piece needs to be backed by two pieces of black for the shadow effect.  


Add a birthday sentiment and turn the celebration into a wild birthday party (in the forest with bears, deer and bunnies).

My paper choice for this birthday bash is Graphic 45 BLOOM 8 x 8 Paper Pad .  Because the paper pack has the outdoor theme but with bold colors. The bold "solid" B sides of the paper made great contrasting silhouettes against black shadows.

After using  Spellbinders Moroccan View Cut and Emboss Folder, I decided to add subtle focus to the embossing by gently sanding the surface of the paper with a sanding block and ruffing up the embossed areas.
