Sweet Sprinkles

Hello.
I had so much fun making this card.
I think the recipient is going to love it.

It's a wrapped shaker - so the shaker bit is made with some scrap, plastic packaging, 
wrapped around the card, and secured with DS tape. So easy!


The shaker confetti was the fun bit. I didn't have much in the way of pretty sprinkles,
so I made some of my own...
large and small cherries - die cut and coloured with copics
ice creams - die cut from coloured cardstock and pieced together
ice lollies - I put a strip of ds tape onto white card and made sure the 'lolly' part was cut from that piece - then I peeled off the tape and pressed the die cut into some glitter. IRL it's very sparkly.


This is definitely something I'll be trying again.
I'm already thinking of gingerbread men sprinkles, and tiny Christmas trees!!

Caroline...This card couldn't be any cuter! Wrapped shaker is great wording for the plastic wrap shaker... I love this method and use it almost exclusively now. Your card, though, is inspired. I love the bits that bring summer to life! That the young woman is looking into a window of treats is just so fun. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful card with Just Us Girls!

What a fabulous shaker card, Caroline. It was so clever of you to make your own shaker bits and they are perfect for a summer card. Thanks for sharing it with us at Just Us Girls. You may want to link it up to Time Out too.
