Hi everyone! Today I am back with a suspended shaker I created for the Lawn Fawnatics challenge using stamps from the Lawn Fawn Mermaid for You and Fintastic Friends stamp sets. I also took this as an opportunity to play around with my new Ranger Alcohol Inks and create an ocean background with them. Let me tell you…these guys are addictive! I used Yupo paper and played around with the Turquoise and the Pistachio inks, and when I was happy with my background I moved on to my card.
I used two layers of craft foam to create dimension on my shaker, and for the suspension mechanism I used some nylon thread. I first taped it to the back of my mermaid and then sandwiched it between the two layers of craft foam. Just make sure that the thread is somewhat loose inside the shaker, so that the mermaid can swing around.
I completed my scene with a few images from the Lawn Fawn Mermaid for You and Fintastic Friends sets, and for the sentiment I did some heat embossing with white embossing powder over the same teal blue cardstock that I used on my card base. To create the banner I used one of the dies in the Lawn Fawn Stitched Journaling die set and the extended die cutting technique.
I also created a video tutorial for this card, you can watch it on my YouTube channel! If you did like the video you can tell me by leaving a comment or a like, and if you want to stay up to date with my content you can subscribe to my channel π Thank you all for your support!
And that’s it for today! I really hope you liked this card and enjoyed the video!
I will be back soon with another fun project and, in the meantime, I wish you all a great day!
