Seahorse Double Shaker

Hello! This month, Doodles Paper Playground came out with FIVE brand new Sparkle Blends! Today I am sharing a card with one of the newest Blends, as well as an older (but gorgeous!) Blend.

For this double shaker card, I worked with the new Limonade Sparkle Blend and the lovely Mermaid Scales. Limonade has a citrus color palette of soft yellow, lime and deep green, gold, and opalescent. The combinations of these colors, plus those from Mermaid Scales is what inspired me to color the Seahorse from Aurora Wings as I did. To color it in, I used Zig Clean Color Markers. Here’s a closer look.

 I die cut the colored seahorse with a Fitted Frame from Stampendous. I used one size smaller Fitted Frame to use as a mask, which I placed over the colored image that allowed me to cleanly ink up a border with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. My background was made with Tahiti Kalediacolor Ink from Imagine. I swiped the inks across a large acrylic block, and sprayed it with Ink Potion No. 9, then applied it to my background paper.

My shakers were made with smaller Fitted Frames and backed with colored cardstock. I like the look of different Sparkle Blends in different windows. I added a sentiment from the Nautical Treasures stamp set from Stampendous and inked it with Twilight VersaFine Clair ink.

I’ll be back soon with another creation with a new Sparkle Blend. To see all of the new Blends, please visit White Rose Crafts LLC. That’s the only place you can get them. Thanks for stopping  by. Have an inspiring day!
