Hello everyone, I will show you another Christmas card for the Craftin Desert Divas Digi Design Team. This time I used this cute bear holding a Christmas bauble and I thought it would be great to create a shaker card in form of another bauble.
So I went ahead and cut out a circle from white card stock and the little silver hanger out of silver card stock. For the background of the ornament, I distressed white cardstock with Mowed Lawn and Pine Needle Distress ink. I tried to blend it to the darker color on the right side to mimick the colored ornament the bear is holding. I also sprayed the distressed area with a mixture of water and perfect pearls.
I printed the bear on Neenah Solar White card stock as well as the sentiment in green. The bear was colored with Spectrum Noir markers (fur: TN7, TN8, EB5; EB2, GB8, GB10; ornament: JG1, JG6 + silver gel pen; hat: CR10, DR2, DR6 + IG1, IG2).
To assemble the shaker card, I adhered a piece of acetate behind the cut out cicle and applied foam tape all around. I filled the shaker with silver and clear sequins.
I placed the bear on the front of the card and cut the sentiment into a banner shape. Behind it, I adhered a slightly larger green banner.
