I've got a CAS shaker card for the #716 Krafty Chicks Challenge this week! CAS designs can be challenging for someone who likes to color like me but this great word die from MFT made it easy peasy! I created a mixed media background using Brushos Powders and watercolors in lots of different blues and set is aside to dry under a stack of heavy books!
I glued two panels of 130# white card stock together and die cut the word towards the top center; this panel was then cut down to 3.75" x 5". I adhered the blue background to the front of a top-folding A2 card front to fit underneath the shaker panel. An acetate window was attached to the omit panel and backed with a double layer of craft foam. The exposed edges of the foam were brushed with anti-static powder and the skater bits were piled onto the front. I attached the front panel over the embellishments and glued the word into the window to finish up the design!
I hope you will join us over the Krafty Chicks Challenge this week with your own CAS creations!
Oh Rachelle! I love me a shaker card! And this one doesn't disappoint! I agree with you, it's a wonderful word die and you created the perfect background. So glad you got to play a little with colour.
