This week's monochromatic challenge features a pale green pistachio color. I don't use this color much in my crafting anymore so it was a bit of a challenge for me for sure!
I used the new Shakers and Sprinkles kit to create a heart shaped shaker. Its my first attempt at shakers but the dies and foam adhesive make it relatively easy. I used some pretty gingham patterned paper for the top of the heart and cardstock for the banners and die cut word to complete the sentiment. The pretty sequins came with the kit and I'm using all the embellishments sparingly as I fear of running out!
I stamped a background of a simple Happy Birthday sentiment in black so the pretty shaker and banners would stand out.
And our featured designer for August is....Stephanie Keats.

Sherrie, this card is so fun! I love it! The "SPRINKLES" make me smile! I love how the Pistachio Pudding stands out off your awesome background! XX

ReplyDeleteThis is just about as cute as they get! I love these colors and they look so amazing with the shaker and sprinkles kit.
ReplyDeleteFabulous card. I like how you made your own background and split the sentiment. And, of course, I love the shaker--always love the shaker and that heart is so striking in green.
ReplyDeleteLove your shaker card Sherrie - the shaker looks fantastic against the stamped background and the Sprinkles sentiment is to 'die' for!
