Ginger Snap Scraps DT: Bring on the Bling!

So as you can see, I used a lot of bling. Because this week is Bling It On with the Ginger Snap Scrap's Design Team! I made a shaker card for my dear friend I've known since I was 14, Joy. She loves the color yellow, so I tried to incorporate as much as I could into the color palette. All you need to make a shaker card is a Nestablities die from Spellbinders and a manual die cutting machine like Cuttlebug. To make the shaker recessed into the card you can use foam or scrap cardboard like I did. There's heaps of videos out there on YouTube if you'd like to give it a whirl. All the items I used are listed below in the thumbnails. The beads for the shaker material are from my local craft store. The Unicorn, star stamps, and banner's sentiment is from the Lawn Fawn Critters Ever After stamp set and I wrote the happy birthday bit below.



Hope you like it and thanks so much for taking the time to stop by my blog today!

Inky and glittery fingers for all!
-Gaby


Update:
It made it to Alabama without getting unched and Joy loved it! She Instagramed it on Facebook. :)
