Well sometime ago now - but it was TTT!
Good morning blogland,
It's the first Saturday of the month, and so it's time for a new challenge over at Crafty Calendar Challenge, this month we are sponsored by Lawn Fawn with a great prize for one lucky winner!
The theme is also easy this month - we're doing 'Anything Goes', doesn't really need explaining that does it! My card is one from the recent vault - it's the second one I made for my daughter's 17th birthday that was in June and I'm sharing in November. For me, that's actually quite quick!
And here it is:
Supplies used:
Digital stamp:
coloured with my Copics
Rubber stamp (and matching die)
taylored expressions - Simple Strips: Birthday
die-cut with Simple Strips: asymmetrical
Anything else:
'birthday' embossing folder
Distress Inks and blending brush
glitter / sequins
largish piece of acetate to create the full front shaker
very old chipboard numbers
The image is very much my daughter - laptop always on the go and a black cat hanging around somewhere close. The only difference is we don't have a great big armchair like this one, wish we did though it looks very comfy!
It's also the first time I've tried a full front shaker card, not as hard as I'd thought to make, but my goodness the glitter I added was a beggar for escaping!
And that's it folks, it is a very easy theme and a lovely prize- my Teamies are wonderful crafters and their inspirations are fabulous.
See you soon,
Sarah

A perfect choice of image for your daughter Sarah, love the design with the shaker and embossed background, adds that wow factor without distracting from the beautifully coloured image. I rarely make shakers of any description- mine always seem to leak glitter everywhere no matter how carefully I seal them.
