Peekaboo!


Argh!
Shaker cards are hard. I always get a few sequins stuck around the edges.

This playful pup, hiding behind a giant gift, is for the challenge at AAAColourful,
where the palette is greens and yellows.


This is one of those cards that just evolved.
I didn't set out to make a shaker card, but once I'd stamped those streamers I didn't want to cover them up. 


Challenge


For some reason, this card was impossible to photo. 
Any attempt to brighten it makes the yellow luminescent!
IRL it's a pretty, yellow shade.






Big thanks to Nancy, for seeing my card on Insta, and recommending I enter
the challenge at Color Hues
where they too have a lemon and lime palette.



  • my favorite things - pawty time / stitched rectangles
  • pinkfresh studio - diagonal stitch rectangle die
  • versacolor ink - green tea/fresh green/lime/canary

Caroline, I love everything you make and just so happy to see this darling card in our gallery at Color Hues. The streamers in the background bring this card to a new level and then of course add the shaker. Thanks for joining us!

What fun and cheerful card with that cute pup and his big present. The garlands are pretty and glad you didn't cover them up. Great shaker card.

You had me with the yellow polka-dot package, Caroline, then I nearly swooned at the steamers and a shaker to boot! What a great way to use these colors! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Color Hues!

This is an absolutely darling card, Caroline! I adore the pup and the streamers are very festive. I agree, shakers are hard, but looking at yours, it's now evident you struggled at all! Thanks so much for sharing with us at Color Hues!
