☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

I used Strawberry Jude Stamps layering Holly Jolly set.

These leaves had 5 layers.

On the ones on the right I used 5 different colors. 

On the ones on the left, I used clear heat embossing to create the last highlight.

I did about 8 pairs of leaves and 5 sets of holly berries.

I die cut my base panel and my shaker window frame.

I white heat embossed my sentiment so it would pop against the black background.

I attached my base panel to a top folding card base.

I used a double layer of foam tape on my shaker frame.

I measured out my sequins and placed the shaker frame.

I added my holly leaves and berries.

I also added some sequins around my sentiment just to tie it all together.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

I had quite a few holly leaves still left so I put together this card, using the leafs to make a wreath and used some of the glitter sequins to decorate it!

For this shaker I used the January Garnet Birthstone Sparkle Blend collection 

from Doodle Paper Playground.

Happy Holidays Shaker Ornament - Doodles paper Playground

Happy Holidays

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

I used Lawn Fawn Ready, Set, Snow stamp set and shaker add on dies 

for this project.

I stamped and die cut the base and the snow globe frame.

I used a piece of patterned paper that had little grey snow flakes on it.

Then I added the snowmen. 

These little guys are so cute!

I added color to the snowmen and the globe base with copic markers

I added the acetate and a double layer of foam tape to the frame, 

measured my sequins out and I put the frame in place.

I die cut a second base to put on the back.

This hides the ink that bled through from coloring and also 

gives a place to attach the string.

I had originally had a different idea for the sentiment on this but then 

I decided I wanted to put it on the globe base. 

I stamped it in regular black ink.

For this shaker I used the Icicle Sparkle Blend from Doodle Paper Playground.

I love the glitter sequins in this blend.

There are more great Sparkle Blends and a large assortment of items for 

all your crafty projects over at White Rose Crafts!

Doodles Paper Playgrounds October Release Blog Hop Giveaway!

Doodles Paper Playgrounds October Release Blog Hop

Welcome to the Sparkle Blends October Release Blog Hop for Doodles Paper Playground! This month is full of Blends that are perfect for the upcoming holiday season and beyond! 

Christmas Tags!

This release has a theme. . .. Christmas!

I decided to make a tag for each sparkle blend in the new release!

The tags were pretty easy to make. 

I die cut two tag shapes and added an extra die cut in the middle of one of them to create the shaker window. I added the acetate window and I used only a single layer of foam tape on these, just enough room to move around a bit! They went together just like a regular shaker card.

Frozen and Candy Cane

Boughs of Holly and Gingerbread Man

Bells Are Ringing and Vixen

I love these shaker tags! 

They will be a great addition to any Christmas gift. . . 

I think I may even turn one into a card!

GIVEAWAY: For one of 2 chances to win a full set of all 6 sample packs from this release, please leave comments on each leg of the hop, including one idea of how you would use the Sparkle Blend used in that Designing Diva's inspiration card!
