Egyptian-Themed Shaker Card

Uncategorized

24 Sep

Hello! At the beginning of the month, I did a FB Live for Doodles Paper Playground with the new “A Cold One” Sparkle Blend. This is a beer-themed Blend, but since not everyone wants to make a card with beer, I decided to show folks how to stretch it into another theme. I have the Egyptian Feline stamps from Clearly Besotted, and that’s what sparked the ideas for this card.

I won’t go into all of the details because it’s all in the FB Live, so I do encourage you to check it out. You’ll see all of the mistakes I make, the frustration I felt, and the ridiculous internet problems I had. But the important thing is that I stuck it out and finished the Live with an adorable card.

I love the gold in the sky and around the edge of the card. It really helps the Sparkle Blend to stand out. I did remove the beer steins and mugs from the Blend before I added it to the card, so I can use them at a later date.

Again, with all of the difficulties I had during this process, I am so loving how this card turned out in the end. It was a fun way to use my Sparkle Blends, and those felines are just the cutest. I hope you’ll give the FB Live a watch HERE. And then, if you want to see more inspiration, visit the Sparkle Blends Fan Club and do some shopping over at the Etsy shop.
