Stars & Stripes Shaker

Hello! Alison here. I really wanted to work with the Stars and Stripes Sparkle Blend from Doodles Paper Playground which was perfect because I wanted to use the latest Color Me Monday from Sassy & Crafty, so I went with a red, white, and blue theme for my card.

I colored this gorgeous Sassy Girl (from the OMG set) with Zig Clean Color Markers and fussy cut her. I found an alcohol ink background I had made recently that totally worked with my color palette. So I die cut a window and found a fun spotted background paper for behind my window. I made sure that I added foam tape behind my Sassy Girl so that my Sparkle Blends wouldn't get lost behind her. They're too pretty to be hidden!

The Stars and Stripes Sparkle Blend has sweet stars, patterned sequins, and the fabulous textured spirals that I love so much. The sizes and shapes are really fun, and just perfect for a sassy card.

I love how this card turned out. I loved using colors I don't typically use together, and experimenting with skin tones. And although this Sparkle Blend is patriotic, I think this card goes beyond that theme. I'll be back soon with another project. Thanks so much for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

 We've mixed lots of cute panda head-shaped Fimo slices into a basic neutral black & white blend. We've made sure to include lots of textures for extra interest with glossy black spiral sequins, Fimo rings, dots & sprinkle shapes & a wide size range of cupped sequins ranging from iridescent to satin-matte finish & a sprinkling of white mini bugle beads & black mylar crunchy beads for plenty of satisfying shakes.

Oh, Ship

I decided to use two patterned papers for this card. 

I die cut both panels. 

I die cut the shaker window.

Then I white heat embossed the front with this image and sentiment from Simon Says Stamp.

The inside of the card will say 'Sorry I missed your birthday!'

I added my foam tape and sequins.. . . 

 I love these ones with the polka dots too!

I added sequins to the front to finish the card. 

I love these little die cut shapes!
