Thank you Shakers

Hello everyone!
Today, I am playing with three fabulous 6"x6" paper packs designed by our very own Khyati Kothari!
I have used two papers from the 'Pyari Maa' paper pack and 

I'm sure over the Diwali holidays we have partied  a lot and have been hosted by family and friends! 
I thought it would be nice to make a thank you card for that 
special someone who has lovingly pampered us.

To make the card, I used my PTI small mason jar die to die cut the window. I then affixed the acetate and double sided foam tape to the back and fill the  window with blue and green seed beads. I then cut a panel of paper from the 'Colours of India' paper pack and adhered it, creating the shaker element.
I layered the papers on a background from the 'Pyari Maaa' paper pack and used Winnie and Walter dies to die cut the sentiment. 
Simon Says Stamp has recently come out with co-ordinating background dies fro their sentiments. I dont have these dies, but I decided to affix the sentiment on a piece of vellum and cut around it to create  a similar effect. The rest of the sentiment is from Winnie and Walter too.



I really enjoyed making this shaker card. Do come back to read about many more fun projects made by our DT using Craftangles products!
We'd love to hear from you..don't forget to leave a comment!

Cheers

Let's eat cake

Hello! 
For my official Craft Adda post today, I have a fun card using sequin beads...something I have attempted for the first time!

I came a across a picture on Pinterest which jogged my creative juices! I wanted to create an aerial view of layered cake and stand. 
I had fun trying it...I think it looks pink and pretty!



To make the cake I used my Spell binders Nestabilities dies to cut three concentric circles and a scalloped circle. 
I then used some multi medium matte on the edges to adhere the beads. 
I finished of the cake with a pretty pink punched sakura flower .
The flower was punched out of a piece of paper which I coloured with Hero Arts neon pink ink.
I also punched out and adhered some cutlery and finished up the card with a sentiment from Stampendous (stamped with memento ink).


I hope I have shaken up your creative juices...have a creative crafty weekend!
Thanks for stopping by..
Have a great day!
