Shake It, Shake It

I got some new goodies to play with today; but I forgot which new goodies, so I had to edit what I'd been dreaming up all day. All in all, I'm still very happy with my Shaker card today.

Cardstock colors: Lost Lagoon, Melon Mambo, Crisp Cantaloupe, Whisper White

I am so excited about the "groovy" new sets that are in the 2014-2015 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalog. Peace, Love, & Cupcakes is one of these, and one of the items that arrived in my box today. All of the stamps used on this card are from the set. Aren't they cute? I think the peace sign is my favorite.

The flowers feature tone-on-tone stamping with Crisp Cantaloupe ink on Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock. The Lost Lagoon ink looks really nice stamped on Crisp Cantaloupe as well, as you can see with the "friends" image. I love the new 1/4" Cotton Ribbon. It's so soft! I chose white so that I could dye it other colors with my reinkers. ;)

Since I thought the 2013-2015 In Color Sequins were coming in this box, and they aren't coming until Friday; I had to come up with something else to put inside my shaker. The Heart Border punch had just arrived in today's box, and the hearts are just the right size to put into a shaker like this! I punched 12 hearts out, dumped them in, and added some Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to shimmer it up. Of course I had to shake it a few times to make sure it would work.

I used our fabulous Shaker Frames to create the shaker. If you would like to see a tutorial of how to make your own Shaker Card, head over to Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration.
