Super Duper Shaker

Uncategorized

28 May

Hello! Today I am sharing a really fun shaker card with Cotton Candy Sparkle Blends from Doodle Paper Playground. I just bought the whole “How You Bean?” set from Lawn Fawn, specifically to use with the many Sparkle Blends I have in my stash.

I typically prefer bright, bold colors…but there’s something so fabulous about the Cotton Candy Sparkle Blend. Yup, it’s definitely super sweet, but it’s also opalescent and shiny. It’s one of my favorite Sparkle Blends. Also inside the jar are a few stars that come with the How You Bean Add On Die set, and I stamped faces on a few of them, which I think makes the shaker even more joyful.

My background was created with a leftover piece of watercolor paper that had been dipped in in Distress Oxide Inks. Then I stenciled the Waves and Dots stencil with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide. 

In the photo above, you can see all of the tiny
elements that make up this particular Sparkle Blend. I love the itty bitty
opalescent stars, as well as the crystals. There are even some butterflies! My
sentiment was created with a couple of Lawn Fawn stamp sets. The
“Everything is” and “fun with you” is from the 
Love You S’more set,
and the “super duper is from the new 
Reveal Wheel Sentiments. I added a piece of patterned paper to the
bottom of the card to create a ground for the jar to sit on. 

I tell ya, shaker cards just make people happy.
I was showing the completed card to my husband, kids, and my mom, and their
faces just lit right up. They couldn’t stop shaking them, and they just kept
telling me how fun shakers are. So if you need to brighten someone’s day, give
them a shaker. You’ll be seeing a lot of these jars from me, as I think they
will be great for so many occasions. Changing out the Sparkle Blends inside
will totally change the mood of the jar. I may just be trying it out with one
of the new releases that will be coming out next month! Remember, you can only
get Sparkle Blends from 
Doodles Paper Playground from White Rose Crafts LLC. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!
