Shaker Card ~ Faith

This weeks challenge over on Crafty Pad is to use mixed media,

and this week you can use any stamp you want ,
so if you haven't been joining in cause you don't have a Faith stamp...
now's your chance!!!

If you do have a Faith stamp and you join us
your name will be entered twice in the prize draw!

To be honest I wasn't sure about this mixed media......
But in fact it is just using all the things I like to use on cards!
Just a fancy name for it!

You can use paint, ink, embossing, embellishments, journaling, ribbons....

anything that takes your fancy!


so I used the acetate sheet that Faith Blowing hearts arrived on,
or you could use stayzon ink to stamp her on acetate.
Use foam pads or strips to make an edge
all the way round the acetate under the frame.
Add your shaking material liek teh hearts, or stars or sugar.
Make sure there are no gaps.
place a back on to seal it all in.
Apply to card......
you have made a shaker card!

I used gold ink to smudge all over the red shimmery card base.
And then a card frame that my lovely mate Sammi sent me.
I smudged gold ink over that as well.
I love the gold ink pad..I used it on the biggest flower on the set of three,
and on the button love heart !


I love shaker cards!
I used small confetti metal hearts inside



The buttons and gems and pearls are all dotted on.
I tend to be vet symmetrical with my cards and
this one was me really trying something new.

You can buy Faith stamps over at Crafty Pad.
There is as always as wee prize for the winner of this challenge!

Come and join in with us!
