Hello! I have a fun, summery shaker card featuring three Sparkle Blends from Doodles Paper Playground to share with you today. I love ice cream, especially in the summer, and the Lawn Fawn Sweetest Flavor stamps are just perfect for what I wanted to create.
I started off by stamping my 3 focal ice cream cones with VersaFine Clair ink in Nocturne. Then, I stamped the rest of my cones all over the background with Gray Flannel Memento Ink. I filled in the empty spaces with hearts, and gave all of the background ice cream happy faces. I also added my sentiments with Nocturne ink from the Lawn Fawn Reveal Wheel Sentiments (the original set).
Next, I carefully lined up the Sweetest Flavor Reveal Wheel Add-On Die that cuts out the center of the ice cream, on each of my three focal cones. I adhered some acetate to the back, and then foam tape from Brutus Monroe to the entire back of my shaker panel. I decided to go with a patriotic color scheme, because it just added to that summery vibe. I used the new Ruby and Pearl Sparkle Blends, as well as Blue Over You, which was previously released. I also colored the cones using Desert Sand and Rich Cocoa Memento markers. This took about a minute to do. Super fast! I added some plain white cardstock behind my shaker windows to seal them up, and applied the panel to a gray card base. I am really loving gray card bases lately. Do you ever change up your base color?
Something I really like about making small shakers is that you can use up the last bits you may have left from a Sparkle Blend. Also, small shakers give you the opportunity to have lots of different Sparkle Blends all on one project.
This card is super sweet, and I just love this Sparkle Blend combination. Please head over to White Rose Crafts LLC to shop for many of these great products and then some.
