Hi all,
I am loving this month's theme from Aunty Vera Scrap and Craft..
Harry Potter - 'Dance Like a HippoGriff'
I decided that I love the Hogwarts Castle die so much I had to make a Shaker Card
with it and you all know how much I love shaker cards..
To start with I created the background with Distress Oxide inks. here
Add some ink to a gloss service or mat, in this case it is my glass mat from TIm Holtz. Spray some water on it and using a gloss card, (photo paper is great) either pat it on the ink or kind of drag it through; keep doing that until you are happy with the results..
Dry thoroughly and with a baby wipe gently wipe away the top layer..
Tip: once you do this stage you cannot go back over it with more ink, it makes it look weird lol.
I did several and picked the one I liked the most..
I die cut a circle from it which was 4 inches. I punched a 1 1/8 inch circle from white cardstock and inked around the edges and a little in the middle to give some shadow.. This becomes the moon..
I die cut two Hogwarts Castles and with one just sniped of the middle section to give me just the frame.. I also cut a 4 inch black cardstock circle and a 4 inch piece of acetate.
Using the frame piece I placed Versamark ink all around it and poured the Mixed Media Hammered Embossing Powder Here
Shake of the ink and heat emboss the frame..
You can see the embossed frame here.. Isn't it gorgeous, I am so happy with this powder..
I also fussy cut around the castle top on the moon then adhered the white moon on top of the black moon and let the castle fall onto it..
I chose one of the 6 inch x 6 inch Cut aparts from the gorgeous papers in this month's theme. I cut it down 5 inches x 5 inches and matted it on black cardstock measuring 5 1/8 inch x 5 1/8 inch then on to the white base which I had inked around with Archival Ink - Coffee.
I placed three pearls down the side.. I love how the gold from the paper seemed to highlight the shaker frame..
The card in its glory.. This really is such a gorgeous card that the photo does not do it justice at all..
I hope I have inspired you
to create glorious things.
Hugs
