A daily papercrafting blog which features my handmade cards showcasing Creative Expression's products including my own line of cutting dies and embossing folders, Cosmic Shimmer, Ranger and more which use various techniques and ideas to hopefully inspire the creativity in you.
I saw the video of this card when it first went on to your site, it is so clever, many friends would love this and I will watch it again. These sets are moving up the wish list very fast. Hugs to all, have a lovely day, it is 5 pm here and just off to early dinner and our trivia night, my second favourite thing after crafting lol !!
Hi Sue. Are you messing with my mind again lol. I still can't get over the card from last week, I know you're clever with your dies, that's why you won and deserved the award but last week's background blew our mind and both of us sat here - Andy included and actually laughed out loud - wow amazing ☺ I look forward to watching today's tutorial as I've gone shaker card mad and made a few for Mother's Day to take to market but they could be better, and although I asked Paul for idiot proof step by step instructions lol but there's nothing better than getting help from a professional (sorry Paul) lol love ya 💋 so im excited to watch you put todays fun sample together, its brilliant Sue thank you. Sending love and hugs your way, hope you have a great day xx
Hello Sue, a really fun card today, love the idea of using this die to make into a shaker card, especially with the fall-away pieces cut into different colours. Will catch up with the video a bit later. Have a great day everyone. Bx
Hi Sue A great card. Shakers are so versatile as you can fill them with lots of different things to suit the particular occasion! Thanks for sharing. Have a great day everyone. Hugs.
I hope you are well.. I love the card, with the glasses along the bottom it could equally be called "The Morning After" ! LOL! Those little glasses are very useful.
Good Morning Sue. Ohhh boy do you make things look so easy...... yes you do...... I have just watched the video and was I impressed. Normally the shaker cards don't do anything for me.... but I have to admit after seeing this I could be wanting to have a go. Hey maybe it's the wine glasses...... or is that wish full thinking lol. Anyway it's a brilliant card Sue and so much fun. Sending best wishes to everyone on this sunny but bitterly cold morning. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds
It's like someone gave us miniaturization dust and shrank us down so the confetti inside the shaker card looked huge. That little bit of sparkle really dazzles up the pastel drinks. Using the background as white on white really helps cut down on the confusion of which is the image and which is the space in between. Also, having the pastel cutouts of the drinks as the confetti really helps the eye see the drink shapes first and ignore the waistcoat shapes.
That reminds me. I was at an event Monday night, and talking to a woman I had just met. We were pointing out people in the room by describing their hair color or what they were wearing. I wanted her to notice the man in the fleece vest, but as I was searching for the word vest, she said jumper. It stopped me. She didn't have a British accent, but I still asked if she was British. She said no, but her husband was.
I really like getting videos almost every other day!
Thank you. Enjoy your Tuesday already in progress.

Hello Sue I love your shaker cards so this is a hit with me. Owlish I am so glad your husband is better it must have been a difficult time.Stephanie K so pleased the storm wasn't as bad as expected.
What a fun and happy card and what makes it eve better - it's a shaker card. They always manage to bring a smile to your face. Thanks for sharing the video, you make things seem so easy.
Hi Sue, This is a really fun card suitable for any occasion, male or female. Love the 'glasses' used as the shaker. Great background. Cheers, Di B. x Tasmania.
Super card. Love shaker cards and the colours you've used for the fallaway pieces are so pretty. I made a shaker card for my grandson's birthday a couple of weeks ago, not using this die though as he's only six. Last year's card, a gum ball machine is still his "best card ever" but it's come back to me for servicing. After thousands of turns the handle has come off so he wants it mended and returned in working order!
HI SUE I don't know that I particularly like shaker cards But I think u done a pretty card with this one I keep losing track of what going on lately as my husband had a stroke but going to try and get back into viewing as ur blogs now as l missed them JOY Xx
