Creative



I love this Gingko Leaves stamp from Sparkle N Sprinkle.  You can either purchase it as a set (Leaf Robe set) or individually.  The sentiment is part of the set.  After stamping the image with VersaMark, I heat embossed it with SNS Forest Green embossing powder and fussy cut it out.

I wanted to do something a little different and decided to create a shaker card since I hadn't done one in quite a while.  (Although I generally feel that "less is more", that's not the case when adding glitter to the inside of the shaker.  I added what I thought was quite a bit of the SNS Cyclamen glitter, but I should have added a LOT more.)

I also created my own glitter paper using the negative portion of a Spellbinders die left over from a different project, my Xyron machine, and Sparkle N Sprinkle Cyclamen glitter.  Add a double bow and you're all set.
