Rainbow Turtles card featuring lawn fawn

Hello crafty friends!

Today, I have a shaker card and a gift tag to share with you!  I’m participating in the Lawnscaping Challenge: COLOR inspired by the rainbow.  I’m using the mini stamp set by Lawn Fawn called Year Two.  This set is very affordable ($3.99), and by repeating the image, you have enough content for a full card!  Supplies will be listed at the end of my post.

Here’s what I came up with:

Here is a closer look of the shaker card:

The back ground is water colored and I embossed the sentiment for a little extra shine & texture using versa fine onyx black ink and clear embossing powder.  This is actually my second time at this card.  Here’s a helpful tip for you crafters: make sure you don’t have inky fingers, especially when dealing with white card stock.  {sigh}  I had finished my card, picked it up to photograph, and got black ink smudges all over the white frame.  I don’t know where I picked up ink on my fingers…maybe there was some Versafine left on my acrylic block & I picked it up while tidying up?  The sad part is that I managed to get a few tiny smudges on this new card as well.  Butter fingers!!!  I originally wanted to use my favorite sparkling clear sequins on the outside, but I switched to the gold tones to strategically cover up 2 small black ink smudges.  You’d never know!  Whew!
