Happy Friday! Are you Black Friday shopping? Before you do, I hope you will check out Day 23 of Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags. Today we welcome Lil' Inker Designs as our guest and sponsor.
Shaker tags (or cards)... admire those made by others, not a fan of making them. Yet as I looked over my Lil' Inker collection, this idea wouldn't go away. I cut the photo frame both from cardstock and fun foam, as well as a solid cardstock and a patterned paper rectangle of the same dimensions. On the patterned paper I stamped and embossed the trees before adding s white cardstock slope. (Pro tip: paper layers tend to catch sequins...) From red cardstock, I cut the sentiment. I used a combination of silver sequins and iridescent stars for the shaker element.
Be sure to visit Tracey's blog for lots of tag inspiration, as well as everything you need to know about how to participate... and perhaps win a prize!

ReplyDeleteIt's a cute tag. I need to try making more shakers. I'm better at it when they dies and shaker acetate are sold. Otherwise I'm terrible at getting them correct. Lovely trees and the Joy die. [Bunny]```

I'm so glad you gave in to this idea!!! Your tag is fabulous and just wouldn't have been quite as special without the shaker element. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a striking tag! Gorgeous design and fantastic shaker element.
