Weekend fun cards

 I was lucky enough to get a few hours to make some cards this weekend and boy did I have fun!  

I've been wanting to make a shaker card out of this MFT champagne glass for a long time.  I just love the combination clear sequins mixed with large gold glitter.  The sequins remind me of bubbles.

While I was waiting for my new Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers I whipped out my Tim Holtz distress markers to make this  awesome background and flowered piece.  I just scribbled on the background in a few different vibrant colors and then sprayed with water and added some big water droplets.  I love Distress ink!


My first time trying out Lil' Inker Designs Ombre' striped paper and absolutely love it!  It really makes a great background.  I also used  LID's new Coffee Talk stamps for the first time.  I really loved what Sarah Jay did with this stamp set, especially with the chocolate "drizzle" over the top.  I thought it looked so realistic and fun!   I totally snagged that idea for my card.  Thanks Sarah!


And being the thrifty little cardmaker that I am I used the cutout piece from the last card to make a focal point for this card.  That sweet little Unforgettable elephant with a birthday balloon and hat.  And this is my first attempt at coloring with my new Zig markers.  It was so easy and fun!  So glad I gave the Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers a try.

Thank you so much for stopping by!
