Hello crafty friends! Gladys here and I'm so happy to be back on the blog today. I have a super cute shape card to share with you. I hope you will like it!
I have been wanting to create a snow globe shaker card so this is what I came up with. I really love how it turned out and it was super fun to make. I thought it would be cute to combine it with the Oh Gnomie Tree stamp from Mama Elephant. So to begin I colored the huge gnome tree image using copic markers then cut it out using the coordinating die.
Next I used the Snow Globe die from Honey Bee stamps. I like the size of this snow globe and the gnome tree fit perfectly. I cut the solid snow globe die from Bristol smooth cardstock so I could do some ink blending. I used the colors seedless preserves, picked raspberry and spun sugar distress oxide inks. I started from the center using the lightest pink color to the darkest on the edge. To add interest I splattered some water droplets and diluted seedless preserves using a fan brush. Since this is a snow globe it needed snow so I also splattered white gouache on the panel.
To create the shaker card I used the snow globe frame die cut from white cardstock multiple times to give enough height for the sequins to move freely. I also cut the frame from a light colored blue cardstock and used the solid snow globe die to cut the acetate. I adhered everything together using liquid glue. For the platform I cut it from woodgrain cardstock and inked the edges using vintage photo distress oxide ink. The shaker element consists of snow flake confetti's, clear sequins and beads.
Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you enjoy this gnome tree snow globe shaker card! Have a wonderful day!! Hugs!
