All the layers including the frame and the tags were sponged with Rhubarb Stark ink from Memento.

Shake it with Impression Obsession

Make sure to check out this post for La-La Land Crafts Blog Hop!! It is a lot of FUN and there are so many prizes you can win along the way!! Here is the link again.

I always loved making Shaker Cards, but it has always been kind of a pain.. Not anymore!!! Have you seen these Shakers from Impression Obsession??!! They come in different shapes and sizes!!

This shaker card is one of the cards for my upcoming "Flower Soft Winter" card class at Cranberry Hill Mercantile. This class is scheduled for:

Saturday, October 17th, 11 am to 2 pm
Thursday, October 22nd, 11 am to 2 pm

This card measures 6" x 6".





Red Dots paper is by BoBunny and the blue paper is from Basic Grey.

This adorable bear stamp is one of the new ones from Stampavie, it is by Gillian Roberts and is called Bear and Robin. I stamped him on Crayogen White cardstock with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Crayogen White has a very nice shimmer to it, it reminds me of Stampin Up Shimmer White but I like it even better.. The image was colored with Copic Markers. I used the largest Shaker on this card. Scallop and Circle Nestabilites to cut out the frame for the shaker. I put just a few pinches of Flower Soft in Polar White. It sure looks like the snow!! So, so pretty!!

Blue flowers are from BoBunny and the swirls on the sides of the flower are the EK Success Swirl punch. Dew drops in the corners and in the center of the flower. Sentiment inside of the cards is from Penny Black.

All of the supplies used to design this card are available for purchase at Cranberry Hill Mercantile. If you do not live in the area you can call the store at 408-736-9151 during business hours and place your order over the phone.

Designer paper is from Best Creations (dots) and Reminisce (bats). Once again I used the stamp from Impression Obsession, LOVE this cat!!! There is no name of the stamp on the package but if you need the number it is F2339. The image was stamped twice, first on the other side of the bats paper for the moon behind the cat. The cat was stamped on Coconut Swirl cardstock from Bazzill, colored with Copics, cut out and popped on the moon. EK Success corner punch, this one is called Fancy Corners and it has two corners on one punch. Large Black Dew Drops in the centers of the corners on the front of the card.

I am a day late, but I had managed to make a card for the La-La's Weekly Wednesday Challenge. This week's challenge was chosen by our Guest Designers, each of them added something different to the group challenge.

Karin - Two different patterned papers
Kimmi - Color Combination: Strawberries (red), Chocolate (brown) and Cream

It did seem a bit overwhelming once I looked at the list, but really almost always we already include most of these elements on the cards that we make. For more details and to enter into the challenge please visit La-La Land Crafts Blog, here is the link.
