A quick post to join in the CAS on Friday challenge: Animals. It gives me a chance to share a cute shaker card I sent off to Hannah earlier to thank her for her “letter” including some art work, and signed with her own printing.
I started by dry embossing the white cardstock with one of my all time favorite embossing folders by Sunny Studios, “Quilted Hearts.” Then I die cut the open heart with My Favorite Things “Stitched Hearts,” backed it with acetate, popped it up with two layers of dimensional tape, and filled it with all kinds of sequins and glitter from my stash.
The cute bunny with a balloon is from My Favorite Things, “Party Pals,” was colored with Copic markers, and die cut with the coordinating die. The sentiment is from The Greetery, “Sentiment Suite: Thanks” and stamped onto one of the coordinating tags that match up with some of the different sentiments in the set. Finally, I added it to a bright blue card base.
Hope you’re having a great day! The snow has finally stopped falling (we have well over a foot of it), and this morning we actually saw some blue sky. It’s amazing what a little bit of sunshine can do for your state of mind.
Oh yes, blue sky and a few rays of sun are instantly uplifting! Your card is so sweet, and I hope it prompts Hannah to send you another “letter”. I’m always thrilled to receive anything from a little’un. I even love it when they just sign their own names in cards from their parents.
Such a sweet response to her letter! Some day I will make a shaker card before the sequins outgrow their drawer.
So clever in its construction! I hope the sky was as blue as your pretty sequins … and a foot of snow is quite a lot! I complain here when we have several inches.
Wasn’t that kind of Hannah to send you some of her art work along with a letter. Cute card.
Yesterday was absolutely a treat of sunshine, today (Friday) raging snow storm – such extremes.
