Yellow Rose Shaker

Hello! It's Alison, and today I have a cheery card for you to check out. I used the "Sunshine" Sparkle Blend from Doodles Paper Playground, along with the Rose Gift stamp from Stampendous. Yellow brings happiness, so I am thinking this card could be the ray of sunshine that someone needs.

I colored my roses with Zig Clean Color Markers and then fussy cut them out. Of course, the "Sunshine" Sparkle Blend was the perfect choice to go with these roses, as it has different shades of yellow, whites, gold, and iridescent sequins in it. There are even some butterflies, which you can see in my photos.

I used scrap patterned paper that I had in my stash (it feels so good to use scraps, doesn't it?) and i kept my card base white. My sentiment is from Stampendous' "From My Heart" stamp set which I stamped in brown.

One of my favorite shaker window shapes is definitely oval. It's simple and elegant, and I like to make my stamped images curve around it. After I assembled my card, I added some sequins to the outside, adhering the them with On Point Glue from Imagine.

You're Beautiful Inside and Out with Sparkle Blend - Sunshine

Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a simple shaker card featuring 

one of April's New Release Sparkle Blends - Sunshine.

Sparkle Blends - Sunshine

A bright, cheerful blend of lemony yellows, 

chartreuse, white and transparent, iridescent butter shades.

You’ll want to use this blend on all of your happiest projects.

I created a slim shaker card. 

Meaning I used several layers of paper instead of foam adhesive to create my shaker. 

I didn't want to create a lot of bulk. I also didn't overfill my shaker.

Let's get started on how I did this.

First like always - I gathered my supplies. I stamped and colored my image. I die cut the sentiments a total of 7 times. 6x from white cardstock and 1x from specialty Gold paper. I also trimmed my pattern paper and cardstock card front panel along with some specialty purple cardstock.

After I have all the components together I start putting the card together. I layer the pattern paper onto the medium yellow cardstock card front panel. Then, I adhered purple cardstock in the center - however, you will notice in a bit I change my mind and move it.

I then start layering the sentiment and gluing the layers. making sure to sandwich the acetate/packing between layers. I did this because the sentiment is so thin and I wanted a thin shaker. I am showing you that the sentiment isn't very thick but it is very sturdy.

  

Next, I add a bit of the Sparkle Blends- Sunshine to the card front panel. I choose some of the gold pieces, mostly the yellow and the starburst looking ones. I notice that the larger butterfly is reading a bit orangy in the photo but trust me it's a beautiful iridescent yellow. 

I adhered the shaker top to the Sparkle Blend and I moved the purple cardstock to the left a bit so that my girl could fit nicely on the right side.

That's it the card is complete. I did add a few highlights to the girl with a white gel pen.
