Look For The Rainbows - A Window Shaker Card

Hello, Crafty Peeps!

I originally created this project for the "Lets Get Messy" challenge at Shopping Our Stash.  But I accidentally posted in on FB yesterday so now I have to create another project for next week! Getting messy means using glitter, pigment ink, acrylic paint, you know, the kind of things that require getting your hands sticky, or messy!  I plan to break out my Geli Plate at some point!

Shaker cards are generally "messy" makes for me!  I use tons of glue and in this case a mix of Distress Inks on the outside and in my windows!  I used stickles and glitter, and glue to embellish cloud windows.  I had so much fun unsticking myself from my panels. 

I added a few sequins to the card face!  I smeared glue on my balloon and then sprinkled on some glitter.  I don't like glitter so much because it gets everywhere!  I used a mixture of stickles and glitter to create a rainbow background in my cloud windows!

I am so glad that I started using craft foam instead of double-sided foam tape on my window projects!  It has made the creation of the projects easier and more efficient.

Thanks for visiting!

Liquid Shaker Card - It Could Have Been Worse

Hello, Crafty Peeps!

Today, I am sharing a new technique I learned for creating a fun and unique shaker card.  This is my second "wet" shaker project and I am definitely hooked.  The other benefit of learning this technique was that I finally opened the Fuse tool that I purchased (or received as a gift) over 4 years ago.

I don't like this one as much as I did my first project (which will post here on Monday) but it is still a really cool card to give someone.  The Hubster and my grandson got a real kick out of pushing down on the "water" and making the sequins move around.  It is kinda cool, I must admit.  I still think I need to be more gen I ordered a few more aquatic-themed stamps and dies so I can vary my underwater scenes.  I need some little fish!

Stuff I Used:

Stamps: Sea Friends

Paper: The Paper Studio

Plastic: WRMK Plastic Sleeve

Liquid: Assured Hand Sanitizer

Misc: Distress and Distress Oxide Inks- Broken China, Weathered Wood, Stormy Sky
