A Place to Start August 2020 - Shaker Card

Hi there, Crafty Peeps!  This month our challenge at A Place to Start is to Create a Shaker Card.  A while back I learned how to create a shaker card by using a clear envelope.  It's so easy - no building up adhesive or using acetate.  Just create your card panel, insert it into a clear envelope, add your shaker bits, seal the envelope, and adhere it to a card base.  Here's what I made:

The main image is colored with my Spectrum Noir markers  I cut it out using a Spellbinders die.  I lightly chalked around the image and adhered it to a colored panel.  I stamped the sentiment and, as I stated above, put it in a clear envelope, and added sequins left over from a card kit. I think it turned out well.

We want to see your shakers, no matter how you make them. Give it a try and enter the challenge.  Happy Crafting!!

613 Avenue Create August 2020 - Option: Use Washi Tape

Hello, Friends!  This month our crafty challenge at 613 Avenue Create has the option to Use Washi Tape. In actuality, I don't have much Washi tape.  And some of what I have has gone bad - the adhesive has deteriorated so that the tape cannot be used. Bummer!  So I used long strips of what is still good and adhered to my card front.  After die cutting a sentiment, my card is done!  Quick and easy, clean and simple.  Here it is:

We hope to see your projects using Washi,  Hopefully, yours is still in good working condition!
