Shake It On A Sunday !!

** UPDATE **

I made TOP 3 at Crafty Ann's with this card...I'm so chuffed!

Morning folks, it's Sunday (again!) which means time for a brand new Crafty Pad Challenge! We had a mammoth number of entries last week, and it was sooo hard to pick my faves, there were so many! I do hope I have the same 'problem' again this week !!

Our theme this week is to make a

SHAKER CARD

I do LOVE shaker cards, they are so effective! Here's mine.

Our sponsor is once again the very generous Joanna Sheen with a £10 gift voucher to spend in her online shop.

The DT have all chosen their own image from Crafty Pad Designs this week, I chose to use the cupcakes from the Complete Cupcake Set. I used the layer elements for dimension and coloured them with Promarkers. I added a little strawberry to the top of each one, which I cut out from some spare DP.

My papers are all from The Creative Cottage Strawberry Garden collection. Sadly The Creative Cottage closed down in June, so these papers are no longer available. They have been matted onto black card, to give definition.

My sentiment is also from The Crafty Pad Designs, you can get it HERE.

Onto the shaker itself. I cut the shapes using my nesties, and filled it with a selection of tiny flower beads and pearls.

I added some tiny strawberries and gems to the border, and a little gingham bow. My finishing embellies are some Baker's Twine, gingham ribbon, a flower made from the DP and some corners, again made from spare DP.

The DT have made some fab samples yet again this week, and each one of us used something different inside our shaker, so do go and get some inspiration...not forgetting to leave some love of course!

My card was made with the following challenges in mind:

• Creative Belli #124 - Gingham.
• Simon Says Stamp - Food & Drink.
• Your Next Stamp Challenge #49- Fruit (hope the strawberries are enough...?)
• The Stamp Man #29 - Anything Goes with Summer Colours.
• Poodles Parlour - Anything Goes.
• Fussy & Fancy - 3 or more of your fave embellies.
• Crafty Anns #47 - Fancy borders &/or scallops.
• Designed 2 Delight - Anything Goes.
• CYDA #27 - Cupcakes!
