Graduation Shaker

Graduation season is upon us once again! My assistant's daughter graduates from college this year. Yippee! This card was made with her college colors. Here are the materials I used:

• Grads Tossing die cut by Impression Obsession
• Congratulations by Paper Smooches
• sequins 

That's pretty simple!

You're Fabulous!

Ok, back dating again on this card, but this card was for my mom on Mother's Day. My mom is nothing short of fabulous! So, she deserves a card with some pizzaz. It was no easy to task to make that border pop up so that it could be a shaker card, but she's so worth it! Here are the materials I used:

• Blissful banners stamp set by Paper Smooches
• Streamers die cuts by Paper Smooches
• Beau Jardin paper pack by Penny Black
• memento ink- rose bud
• pink microbeads 

Sprinkled with Fun

Oh my goodness! I have spent the last month making several of the calendar cards for gifts. It took up a lot of my time, but now I'm ready to get back to making new cards. I've said this before, and I'm sure I will say it again, but I never seem to have birthday cards handy. So, get ready for a flow of birthday cards. This stamp came from a new set that I have been dying to use and it is begging to be a shaker card! Here are the materials I used:

• Donut You Know stamp set by Reverse Confetti
• regal rose ink by Stampin' Up
• paper- birthday wishes paper pack by echo park
• silver sequins
• coordinating twine

Well I hope there will be more to come soon!

If the Broom Fits!

If I haven't said it before, I think halloween cards are my favorites! I was dying to do something with the new IO order we got recently and it goes perfectly with the Impression Obsession Holiday Card Challenge. Here are the materials I used:
