Ghoulfriend, I Love Black! - Halloween Hoopla Shaker Kit

Ghoulfriend, I Love Black! - Halloween Hoopla Shaker Kit

Hi there, Laurie Schmidlin with you today.  I've got a couple of cards to share with you featuring the brand new Halloween Hooplah Kit!  This year, I have gone from having never made a shaker card in my life to being completely addicted to creating them!  The Queen & Co Shaped Shaker Kits are entirely responsible for my newest obsession!  :-)  Every time I think the kits cannot get any cuter, the next one comes out and I'm blown away!

Can I just say how completely adorable these little fimo pumpkins are?  I just can't get over them! 

I created a little night scene out of the patterned paper from the kit.  One tip, when stamping on the clear acetate pieces like I did here, make sure to use a permanent ink (I used StazOn).

I couldn't help myself, I just had to add one of the fimo pumpkins to my sentiment strip!  To the top of the pumpkins, I added a piece of thinly cut cardstock that I curled around a pencil.

 

For my second card, I combined two of the patterned papers from the pad included in the Halloween Hooplah Kit.  I chose to use the witch's hat for my focal image and created a spooky shaker from it.  My favorite part of creating shaker cards is choosing the toppings and filling them up!  It never gets old!

With the busy background of the card, I wanted to make sure the shaker focal image stood out so I added a vellum star.  I embellished with some of the included Orange Iridescent Bubbles.

Thanks so much for joining me here today!
