You're A Star - Doodles Paper Playground

You're A Star


☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆


I started by picking out some distress oxides that would match the 
Happy Little Flurries Sparkle Blend.

I blended them onto a panel and added some water droplets.



I used the same colors and water colored my little images so that they would match perfectly!


Then I thought that the back ground had to much pink in it for this sequin mix so I used the same colors and created a splattered back ground. I die cut a star window for my shaker area.


I added acetate and a single layer of foam tape so that it is more mail friendly!


I die cut the same frame from my first panel and 
placed it in the shaker window. 
I added my sequins and placed the panel on the card base.


I added my images and a sentiment banner.
I also added sequins from the mix to the front of the card.

I couldn't leave my other panel so I created a matching card with 
the Sweet Treats Sparkle Blend!

Make A Wish - Doodles Paper Playground

Make A Wish



☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆


For this  card I used a panel that I already had started and 
knew it would be great with this sequin blend.



First I added green and purple Distress Oxides to the panel and then put some chipped sapphire around the edges and black soot to deepen the colors. 


I did several layers of water splashed with some perfect pearls and a layer of 
white gesso to finish the galaxy look.


OK, so I saw this new way to create a full front shaker card.
I cut my acetate to be half an inch bigger than my panel on both sides.
Each side was scored at 1/4 of inch. 


I used the 1/8 score tape on the edges.


You place the panel on the back of the acetate and fold over the edges, 
basically creating a pouch with the acetate and your front panel.


I added the sequins to the pouch and folded over the last edge.
Then I just placed it on the card front and you have a full front shaker card!


Here is the same card I made using a frame and foam tape.
The acetate pouch I think makes the card less bulky also, 
a better way for shaker cards that you are going to mail?

I like this new shaker method and look for ward to using it in different ways!

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆



I used the Nebula blend on these cards.
I love all the green in this blend, the printed sequins and 
the glow in the dark stars!!

Rain or Shine - Doodles Paper Playground

Rain or Shine



☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆


I used a Die-namic from My Favorite Things to create my shaker element
I die cut it 9 times and stacked 8 of the die cuts up to create the shaker area.


The last die cut is the one that I attached the acetate to and 
placed on the top of the stack.


I laid out the sequins on the die cut and placed my stack of die cuts on top.
Since I used white paper for this die cut I colored the 
handle and the pole of the umbrella.


I used the Rain or shine set from Jane's Doodles for 
my sentiment and rain drops.
I colored them in with colored pencils and put some 
glossy accents on them.


I matted the base panel on a black panel and adhered it to the card base.
I put the umbrella shaker on the card base and added a 
few more sequins to the front of the card. 

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆


I just love this color and love how it looks with the black elements!

You're Pretty Fantastic

You're Pretty Fantastic

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

Oh, Sneak Peek!!



☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆


I started this card by die cutting all my layers.


I stamped this sentiment from this Simon Says Stamp set.


I assembled my layers, measured out my sequins and then placed my top layer.
I added a few sequins to the front of the card for some extra bling!!

I used the This Little Piggy blend from Doodled Paper Playground February Release.
