Castle Shaker Card

Hello hello

Am going crazy with stencils, DI and Embossing.

Sharing a quick card here. I made this card for my friend for their "house warming" ceremony. A look at the card first. 

Shaker Card

I first made the bg with TH stencil (i love it) DI (Peeled paint & tumbled glass). I showered some gold embossing powder on the wet DI, tapped the excess and Heat dried it. So the whole bg is kinda glittery, here its not seen though.

Then for the shaker element i had this stamp set from Pebbles (i got it from Ujjwal long back), which had this cute castle. Since the card was for the house warming it was appropriate. Clear embossed the castle and again inked the bg with the same DI.

Then i misted the bg with water from toothbrush bristles. Hence the slight blotchy effect. I would have loved some more water, but all this is new experiments for me. Filled the shaker with star confetti and gold mini beads.

Finished off the card with gold embossed flowers and bakers twine.

Can you make out anything from the photography? The Fuchsia flower? 

yup, the house warming was in Kodaikanal and hence the beautiful bg for photography. 

So did u like it? thanks for dropping by. Linking it to Lulupu #64 Friendship with a twist
