Ocean Commotion shaker card

We spent the day down at the Seattle Waterfront and a few hours in the Aquarium. I loved watching the otters and seals, they are so funny. This card was inspired by the seahorses we saw, they are pretty cool too. This is a shaker card with the Big Shot Top Note die by Sizzix and the smaller window was made with Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels. Stamp set is Ocean Commotion, filled with Soft Subtles beads (I think these are retired too). Not sure where I got the glittery cardstock, I've had it forever.

Santa Shaker Shadow Box

Inspiration Challenge, inspired by the Etsy gallery of Lorelei Kay (pictured in top photo).
I made a basic pizza box, stamped back in Stampendous Music Score, added Lovely As A Tree pine, layered dimensional Santa gift tag sticker, cotton batting, and Martha Stewart snow behond an acetate window.

Sneak Peek On A Pedestal

This is a Stampin' Up sneak peek available July 1 called On A Pedestal. It is really a cake set but I used the cake upside down on top of the bottom portion of the pedestal to make a drink and added some cherries. I made the main oval image into a shaker card that was filled with clear microbeads that reminded me of sugar. I ran Whisper White cardstock through the Big Shot using the Harlequin texture plate. I also used Melon Mambo and Tangerine Tango cardstocks and inks. The flower brads in the corners were accented with a white gel pen center.
