This is my second post for tonight so please scroll down for the first one. You don't want to miss the first one!
This is my first time making a shaker card and I love how it came out! I see a lot of people having it so I thought why now join in the fun too. :D There are a lot of tutorials out there but if you are interested you can always check out Hero Arts. I visit them EVERYDAY! They have a great video tutorial on it. If you want to read the instructions instead, check out Jodi's blog. She has a really easy to follow toturial as well. Shaker cards are really easy to make. They only thing I don't like about them is that they are too bulky.
For my card, I used my new Asian Doll set from Hero Arts along with Hero Arts Butterfly with Fern stamp. I raised the butterfly with a sticky foam to give ti a more 3D look. I placed the shaker on the front of my card but I will try the other version the next time, which is to place the shaker inside the card.
My card fits the following challenges:
1. Hero Arts: Complementary colors. I used blue and orange.
2. Mojo Monday: the sketch
3. Caarvark: window card. This is considered a window card, right?
4. Charisma Cardz: Any theme, any style. This is an easy one!
5. Three Clover Design: Where are you from? I am from this country!
Stamps: All Hero Arts
Ink: Versa Magic and A la Mode
Paper: The Paper Company cardstock, DCWV patterned paper
Embellishments: gems, flower pins, ribbon, beads
Others: sticky foams, clear craft plastic
