Sending you "Sunny Smiles" today!
I'm over on the Pink & Main Blog today with this summery shaker card featuring images from this month's "Stamp/Die of the Month" Set, Sunny Smiles! The monthly subscription is such a great value and the price includes free shipping! This set is available through the end of the month! I combined this beach bear with some pattern paper from the latest release ("Vitamin Sea") and filled a shaker with lots of tiny sunglasses!
I stamped, colored and die cut the bear plus multiples of the mini sunglasses, matching my palette to the colors in the cabana stripe pattern paper. A strip of this paper was added to the left side of a top-folding A2 card base. I added a thin strip of bright blue card stock as an accent and heat embossed/die cut a sentiment strip from the same paper.
The shaker element was created by stacking several of the "Reverse Scallop Dies" together and backing this with an acetate circle. A thin strip of double-thickness foam tape was added around the perimeter, the shaker bits were piled onto a circle of aqua cardstock and the window was pressed into place. A banner was cut from the same aqua paper and attached to the card front; the shaker component was glued on top. The bear, sentiment strip and confetti were all adhered with either glue or foam tape to finish up the card!
Thanks so much for stopping by today and for taking the time to comment!
Have a wonderful day!
