Unicorn Shaker Card

**WARNING**
THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE AN AVERSION TO GLITTER AND SPARKLE MAY WANT TO SHIELD YOUR EYES!!
🦄🤩🤩🤩🤩🦄

Ok so I may have gotten a little carried away with the glitter and sparkle but I just couldn't help it! Everyone knows that when you are making anything unicorn related it has to 
SPARKLE AND SHINE!
Good morning crafty friends, It's my turn on the Kat Scrappiness blog today.  For today's card I have a unicorn shaker card made with the OH SO POPULAR Crafters Essentials 1 dies. The fun 3 panel die in this set really lends itself to shaker cards! There are over 400 varieties of sequin mixes in the 
Kat Scrappiness shop that you can go shaker card CRAZY! 

For my card I filled those panels with the dreamy Fairy Dust Confetti Mix
Oh those colors are just heavenly!


I used the Pinkfresh Studio stamp set Magical Unicorn for the fun unicorn horn and headband and I also used the Avery Elle Star Frame Die to add some gold star embellishments to the headband. For some added greenery in the headband I used the tree die cuts from the Lawn Fawn Flamingo Together stamp and die set.
So I admit this card is a little over the top but if you need a birthday card for a pre-teen girl in love with unicorns than it's just perfect!

Here is a picture of all the supplies used on today's card.  I will link all the supplies below as well.


 Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you got some inspiration today to add some glitter and sparkle to your cardmaking!

Crazy Bird


Good morning everyone! 
It's my turn today over on the Kat Scrappiness blog and I've got a fun card to share with you.  This month Kat released a great new die called the Wood Grain Framed Diamond Wire and it really is a unique die that can be used in so many different ways.  Make sure to check out the other projects by the DT members to see how they have used this fun die.  
Today I decided to use the die as an interesting background and a place to showcase my crazy bird and computer generated sentiment. 
I started by stamping my Tim Holtz Crazy Bird on to some watercolor paper with 
Versafine Onyx black ink and coloring him with 2 colors of distress ink.  I rubbed some Squeezed Lemonade and Peacock Feathers on to an acrylic block and I used my water brush to pick up the ink and color my bird.  After I was happy with the results I hand cut him out and put him aside to dry.
  
Next I die cut the Wood Grain Framed Diamond Wire die out of some black cardstock and adhered a piece of black striped patterned paper behind it.  I really love the look of the wire die over the striped paper.  It adds to the "crazy" look on the birds face.  
I glued the wire die with the patterned paper to an A2 sized white card base with some 

For this card I wanted to add a sentiment with a crazy font so I generated a sentiment with my computer and hand cut it out.  I trimmed down the words into 6 different strips and inked the edges of each strip with some Black Soot distress ink.  

The only thing left to do was to pop up my bird and sentiment strips up on some foam tape. 
I love how this card turned out and the Wood Grain Framed Diamond Wire die 
gives it such a unique look.
