Happy Monday friends! This is Amanda from Twiddler's Nook with your weekly dose of Mix it up Monday. Today I added a fun mini shaker to the mix with all of the wintry cuteness.
I started by using some shimmer watercolor powders on a piece of watercolor paper, once that was dry I die cut my Pretty Pink Posh Snowflake Shaker from it. I lined the back with acetate and foam strips, a sprinkle of clay embellishments and sealed it up with a piece of white cardstock.
Next, I stamped and colored some sweet penguins from the Sunny Studios Roly Poly Penguins stamp set. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and set it all aside. I couldn't decide how I wanted my background - ink blended or solid and then I came across the Lawn Fawn Stitched Snowflake cover die and all my questions were answered. It's the perfect backdrop!
I ink blended the snowflake panel with pink ink to help the stitching stand out and then glued it to a white card base. Next I added the snowflake and penguins with foam squares and liquid glue. Finally, I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment on a banner die cut, all from Pretty Pink Posh. I also popped it up and trimmed the excess off.
For finishing touches I added black glaze pen to penguin eyes, glossy accents to their beaks and feet, and white gel pen highlights to all of the images.
I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
