Birthday Sparkle

Hello

It's been a bit wild weather wise but all's good ... We had the tail end of hurricane Gonzalo yesterday and I'm really grateful I don't live in a part of the world that has hurricanes on a regular basis

There are more birthday's coming up so I made another shaker card for a friend who celebrates her birthday in a couple of days...


This time I cut a dress with my Cameo and used the negative as my shaker... There was a time when I thought a shaker had to be a square or circle but really anything goes - it's a great way to use the negatives and scraps of paper


Also I have lots of those sequins ... got to use them right?


The die cut word is from PTI ... I can see this being used a lot

I hope your enjoying your week ... 

 Take care

~ Ros ~

Love, love, love it! The dress shape is super fun and that die cut...talk about an eye-catcher. I like that little swirl of thread you used too. I've been seeing that a lot. Awesome card Ros! Hugs!

I too still think of a shaker card as a regular shaped aperture but your design shows just how wrong that is! Beautifully done as always (you place sequins perfectly!)and I absolutely love that sparkle!

Wow Ros, you literally turned a negative into a positive! HA! I know, lame, but I'm feeling a bit cheeky! IT's a gorgeous card and I love the florals underneath and your fun sequins! big hugs :)

Gorgeous birthday shaker! Love this unique shape, the patterned background reminds me of a beautiful garden and the sequins are so perfectly matched in colour! Love that Sparkle die too. I have not been successful in ordering this. Seems it is always out of stock...for good reason!
