Autumn Shaker Card/Tag Set {Creative Embellishments and Shimmerz Paints}

Hey, hey!

Sandi here with you today sharing an Autumn shaker card along with a sweet tag to go with it.
This card is for my sweet sister-in-law who I not only love but who introduced me to scrapbooking many, many years ago!
So, I always try to make her something a little special.



This is actually a shaker card, so I had to work slowly and make sure I didn't make any mistakes.  Haha!
First I prepared the intricate Creative Embellishments Lace Border 1 piece (left side of the card) with some Shimmery Vibez Hot Fudge.
The little hearts on the sweet tag were altered the same way. They are from the CE Heart Frame Set.



The most striking chipboard piece on the project is the Creative Embellishments Viney Flourish Frame. I decided to give it a coat of black gesso and add some shimmery Shimerz colors on top of it: Inklingz Miner Miner 49er, Spritz Granny Gray and Vibez Quit Yer Wine-n. When everything was completed, I dabbed it with white gesso.



The little Happy title piece is from the Creative Embellishments Happy Word Set and was also coated with black gesso, then enhanced with Shimmerz So Sappy. It took several coats to achieve the look I was going for.



Just another close-up of that gorgeous CE Viney Flourish Frame. I also added this photo to remind myself to mention that I used the Round Frame from the CE Heart Frame Set to help create my shaker! It was colorized with Shimmerz Vibez Grey Flannel to blend with the background photo since it's a tad smaller in diameter than the CE Viney Flourish Frame. I also had to trim some of the decorative edge  away so that it wouldn't show. The sequins were added before glueing everything together. I used some of the Spigelmom Scraps Sequins Rustic Retreat sequins which were a great match!
Shake, shake, shake!



Another view of that grand Viney Flourish Frame from Creative Embellishments.





 The extra hearts pieces in the CE Heart Frame Set were used as layers for my sweet little tag. As mentioned before, they were spritzed with Shimmerz Vibez Hot Fudge.


Thanks for coming by today!
