Floral Shaker Cards for Summer - Creative Embellishments and Buttons Galore

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.  

 First Card  

I used some newly released designs to create my floral shaker.  Here are the chipboard pieces used on this card: 

********************************************************************************* Creative Embellishments -Circle Shaker - Chipboard Shaker Set     Creative Embellishments - Berries Creative Embellishments - Leaves Set 1 ********************************************************************************* 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.  Stamperia - Scrapbooking 12 x 12 Collection Pack - Lilac Flowers Second Card   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.

Shadow Effect Card Using PA Scribe by Paul Antonio Collection - Spellbinders

Today I am showcasing a new collection from Spellbinders, designed by Paul Antonio, the PA Scribe collection.   

The script Thank You stamp is absolutely sensational.  It's bold, it's versatile and it's a perfect size if you need a quick card and don't have tome for a lot of fuss.  This stamp comes with it's own pizzazz. 

I used the collection to create a layered shadow 3D effect.  

Here are the products from the collection used:
