Thank you… now on to our hop! 

If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start here as this is a circular hop and if you plan on hopping from East Coast to the West Coast, you are in luck, because I'm the first stop. If you came from Corrina of Corrina's Crafts then you are in the right place! 

 I decided to try making a shakercard for my blog entry.  I started with the Hearts Thin Cuts to make the opening for the shaking.  I used the Dots Overlay from the All About the Gold Fundamentals Collection to enclose the opening in the Raspberry Cardstock(new color).  I really thought the Lagoon and White Cardstock paired well with the Raspberry and cut more hearts to create the finished card.  I used sequins in Gold, Pacifica and Lagoon shades to create the shake.  The sentiment is stamped in Lagoon Ink and is from the Happy Heart stamp set, and this stamp also comes in 2 other languages, French and Spanish.

Supplies:

Raspberry(X5788), Lagoon(X5762) and White Daisy Cardstock(1385)

Hearts Thin Cuts (Z3260)

All About the Gold Fundamentals (Z3246)

Happy Heart Stamp (A1192)

I used paper from the Enchantment Paper Collection (Z3254).  The ink is Pomegranate(Z2653) and Sapphire(Z2648).  The images and saying are from the School Kids Stamp Set (D1706).  I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and let it dry for about 10 minutes before coloring with multiple colors of ShinHan Touch Twin Markers.  I then fussy cut them out and adhered to the card.

For my project I used the ShinHan Touch Twin Markers to color in the flags and the cats.  I stamped the flags and title right onto the White Daisy cardstock.  It is matted onto Black cardstock before being adhered to the cardbase.  The center cat is popped using 3D Foam Tape, as well as his hat and the mask is tucked into his tail, and under his paw.  I think this card is just CRAZY Cool!
