You're A Treasure Shaker Card

Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a little Pirate shaker card featuring the 


This blend has tons of interest with textural additions like two styles of flower sequins,
tiny micro beads and a variety of sequins and cupped confetti in varying sizes,
shades and finishes, resulting in a beautiful true red blend.

You might think an all-black blend would fall a little flat, 
in this case, you’d be dead wrong! We packed this dynamic blend 
with textured elements like tube and; seed beads, crystals
and both round and square sequins with ridges.
To bring even more depth to the blend, we’ve added matte satin, iridescent,
gloss, glitter, holographic and printed sequins in a variety of sizes.


Here's the shaker card I created. I kept the colors of the card to match the Sparkle Blends. I used Lawn Fawn's Ahoy, Matey for the sentiment and 2 little jewels.

Materials Used:
Copic Markers
Spectrum Noir Markers
Recollections Brand: Heavy Weight Cardstock
White and Black

Hope Your Day Goes Swimmingly Card

Hello Crafty Friends - Annie here with a mermaid shaker card featuring the 
New Release Sparkle Blend: Mermazing.

This blend is perfect for your summer projects! 
A gorgeous combination of greens, blues, aqua &; teal - 
this blend is perfect for ocean and beach themes.
 We’ve combined a wide variety of sequins in different finishes and 
sizes ranging from 2mm to 8mm, plus beautiful marbled glass beads
 and tri-tone spheres, as well as open ring sequins that look like bubbles. 
The cute, multi-colored, iridescent mermaid confetti and 
two sizes and styles of shell sequins are perfect for themed projects 
but easy enough to pick out of the mix if you want to save them for a different project.

This is the card I created

I have a quick tutorial for you on how I created this card.
Let's get started:

I start by printing(Mermaid and friends are a digital) and coloring my images. I then fussy cut them out and set them aside. Next, I take a A2 size card front panel and add a light all around coverage of Tumbled Glass Distress ink.
Then, I place a wave stencil onto the card panel. I sponged on some Salty Ocean Distress ink. 
  

Next, I just move the stencil up just a bit and sponged on some Blue Print Sketch Distress ink.
 

Then, I laid bubble stencil on top of the card panel and sponged on some Peacock Feathers Distress ink.

 

Next, die cut a frame into my card front panel. I am now ready to create my shaker card. I gather my components. I also get dark blue cardstock cut to 4.25" x 5.5" for the backing of my shaker.

I start by adhering some packaging material to the back of the frame.  **(you can use acetate instead)
I turn my frame piece over and adhered the mermaid and friends to the clear part of the panel and the frame. 
Tip- I use the frame to help center my wave panel onto the blue cardstock.
Then, I adhered the part I cut from the frame to the center of my now dark blue cardstock (this will be my card front panel). Next, I add my Sparkle Blend on to the wave cardstock piece.  

I  add two layers of adhesive to the frame piece and place it onto the card front panel. Next, I adhered the card front panel onto my card base. Then, I add the sentiment and a few Nuvo Drops to finish off the card. 

Now, the card is complete!

Materials Used:
Digital Image: Jade Dragonne: Mermaid & Friends
Copic Markers: R59, BG72, BG09, BV17, E00, 
E000, E11, E93, B00, B01, BG72
Spectrum Noir Markers: CR10, CR1, CG1, CG2, BT3, 
HB1, CT4, OR1, CT4, BT3, BO1, & MG1
Recollections Brand: Heavy Weight Cardstock
White and Dark Blue

Dragon Glass...

Hi ya crafty peeps, it's shaker card time and I'm sharing a new release of a Sparkle Blend from Doodles Paper Playground!



This fun blend is called Dragon Glass! I love black and white so this blend is perfect for a bit of simplicity OR an all decked out card! You might think an all-black blend would fall a little flat, but in this case, you’d be dead wrong! We packed this dynamic blend with textured elements like tube & seed beads, crystals and both round and square sequins with ridges. To bring even more depth to the blend, we’ve added matte satin, iridescent, gloss, glitter, holographic and printed sequins in a variety of sizes.
Don't forget! Sparkle Blends are all Limited Edition. Once they're gone, they're gone, so be sure to grab your favorites from White Rose Crafts LLC while you can. White Rose Crafts is the exclusive retailer for Sparkle Blends.

Ice Cream for Summer

Hello! I have a fun, summery shaker card featuring three Sparkle Blends from Doodles Paper Playground to share with you today. I love ice cream, especially in the summer, and the Lawn Fawn Sweetest Flavor stamps are just perfect for what I wanted to create.
I started off by stamping my 3 focal ice cream cones with VersaFine Clair ink in Nocturne. Then, I stamped the rest of my cones all over the background with Gray Flannel Memento Ink. I filled in the empty spaces with hearts, and gave all of the background ice cream happy faces. I also added my sentiments with Nocturne ink from the Lawn Fawn Reveal Wheel Sentiments (the original set).
Next, I carefully lined up the Sweetest Flavor Reveal Wheel Add-On Die that cuts out the center of the ice cream, on each of my three focal cones. I adhered some acetate to the back, and then foam tape from Brutus Monroe to the entire back of my shaker panel. I decided to go with a patriotic color scheme, because it just added to that summery vibe. I used the new Ruby and Pearl Sparkle Blends, as well as Blue Over You, which was previously released. I also colored the cones using Desert Sand and Rich Cocoa Memento markers. This took about a minute to do. Super fast! I added some plain white cardstock behind my shaker windows to seal them up, and applied the panel to a gray card base. I am really loving gray card bases lately. Do you ever change up your base color?
Something I really like about making small shakers is that you can use up the last bits you may have left from a Sparkle Blend. Also, small shakers give you the opportunity to have lots of different Sparkle Blends all on one project.
This card is super sweet, and I just love this Sparkle Blend combination. Please head over to White Rose Crafts LLC to shop for many of these great products and then some.

One Pair of Shoes Can Change Your Life!

Hello Crafty Friends - Annie here with a fun shaker for those of us that know 
what a great pair of shoes can do!

and a tiny bit of Sparkle Blend: Icicle - mostly the tiny teal glitter sequins. 

No photo description available.
The high shine base of this blend includes gloss, 
iridescent and opalescent sequins and 
cupped confetti ranging from 3mm-10mm. 
We added tons of texture with seed & tube beads,
 tiny flower sequins and heart confetti to give this blend 
lots of interest without the distraction of a more brightly colored blend.

No photo description available.
This chilly blend of white, clear, ice blue and silver. 
This combination of tiny iridescent gem confetti, 
3D clear diamonds, bitty iridescent hearts, 
and gloss, iridescent & transparent glitter sequins
 in a variety of sizes evokes those chilly stalactites.


This is the card I created.
I drew the show and cut it out with a craft knife. 
Then did some paper inlaying to create contrast in the shoe.

Materials Used:
Memento Pen - Tuxedo Black
Spectrum Noir Markers
Sakura Gelly Roll Sparkle Pen

The primarily blue, pink and purple base of this fun, themed blend pairs perfectly with the coordinating unicorn confetti and multi colored unicorn head confetti.

EK Gorman, DPP Unicorn Magic a
Hey friends. It's EK from ekgorman designs popping in today with the honor of guest designing over at Doodle's Paper Playground.  Today I am sharing not only one of the newly released sparkle blend mixes, but some summer magic.

Unicorn Dreams
Today I am using the new Unicorn Dreams Sparkle Blend Mix.  If you are a fan of unicorns, then you are just going to have to pick up this pack.

IMG_6134
I started my project today by blending some Distress Inks through the Studio Light MaskMM 25 Stencil using a makeup brush. 

IMG_6135
I just love how ethereal the cardstock ended up looking.  Then using two rectangle dies, I die cut out a block of space to turn the card into a shaker element.

EK Gorman, DPP Unicorn Magic b
I filled the open section of the card with the Unicorn Dreams blend and finished the shaker element of the card.

EK Gorman, DPP Unicorn Magic c
I finished the project with some stamping from the ScrapBerry Magic Story stamp set and a little copic coloring to help highlight the colors in the sequin mix.  I also added a Color Connection Pink Mesh Flower with some liquid adhesive. 

Make sure you pop over to Doodle's Paper Playground and check out the full line of recently released blends!
