Holiday Card Making Series 2017 | Shaker Tags feat Craftin Desert Divas stamps and dies

Hello everyone! Today I am back with some fun shaker tags and a video showcasing products from the Craftin Desert Divas October 2017 release. This release is absolutely adorable, and I really love the style of the images I used today! 

For the tags themselves I used some patterned paper by American Crafts, which I cut with the Craftin Desert Divas Shaker Tag dies. I also used a die from the Fancy Frame die set to cut a window in my tags. 

For the shaker background I did some ink blending on Bristol Smooth cardstock with Distress Inks in Candied Apple, Peacock Feathers and Mowed Lawn. I added some water splashes for a more fun look.

I stamped my images on Bristol Smooth cardstock using Versafine Onyx Black ink, and colored them with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. For the color palette I was guided by the colors of the patterned paper I used on my tags. 

I then cut the images using my Silhouette Portrait, stamped the sentiments with Versafine Onyx Black ink, and assembled my shaker tags. I used the Fairy Dust sequin mix and a double layer of foam tape to make sure that the sequin would have lots of room to move around. I finished off the cards using some ribbons that I got at a local store.

If you are interested in watching how I made these shaker tags, you can watch the video tutorial on my YouTube channel! And don’t forget to let me know what you think about it!

And that’s it for today’s post! I really hope you liked it and enjoyed the video. You can check out my Instagram and Facebook pages to see more inspiration for the new Craftin Desert Divas release! I will be back soon with another fun project, and in the meantime I wish you all a great day! Ciaooo!
