The next challenge I did was a infinity shaker card, I will have to say they are much easier than the traditional. I did not have the actual plastic you can buy for these, so I used the clear packaging that came over my dies, the real thing stuff. I cut it at least a half an inch larger than my background piece.
HERE is the video that was shared with us to make the infinity portion. We were to stencil a background first by using a rainbow of colors, and then lifting the stencil and using the same colors to fill in the background. I added a sentiment on the inside but one tip we were given that I forgot to do is glue some of the goodies to your background so when it isn't shaking you have something there.
I stamped the cat and glued it to the outside of the shaker using glue dots.
- Tim Holtz - Rays stencil
- Distress inks - Saltwater taffy, salvaged Patina and fossilized amber
- The Greetery - Crimped frame die
- Penny Black - Bubbly stamp, colored w/markers
- Inkadinkado - All Occasions sentiment stamp
- Sequins and pearls
- Thin plastic packaging from die envelope for shaker

Connie, your shaker card blows me away with your curved colours. Perfection. That cat is cute and coloured up so nice. Hope you're feeling better!
I need to watch a video once and for all because this would be my kind of shaker card. Gosh, that's a great idea to glue some of the shaker bits in place. Love the rainbow of rays. Really cute!
