I can hardly believe that we are nearing the end of March and halfway through our challenge at Unstampabelles. This time we've been asking you to think about 'Punctuation' and using it somewhere on your creation. Sometimes punctuation can be amusing if used incorrectly and very annoying to the punctuation purists! This is my inspiration for you.
I've used the exclamation mark but didn't go for the amusing twist. Unlike some of my teamies who have. If you pop over to Unstampabelles (link in sidebar) you'll see some very funny examples.
I am showing you a shaker card this time using a hot air balloon die that one of my crafters got as a freebie in a craft magazine (not sure which one sorry) I die cut the balloon twice and paper pieced one. The shaker is filled with tiny seed beads and sequins. The sentiment is computer generated using Word which I mounted on silver mirri card stock. Finally the three tiny 'balloons' floating high are actually raindrop candy that I had been given as a RAK from my friend Wendy but to me they looked like mini balloons!!
I hope you'll be inspired to join us. Don't forget no stamps please either digi or otherwise. And of course there's a yummy prize as usual. Here it is.....
A brand new 'Die-cutting Essentials' magazine with freebie die, stamps and embossing folder.
A yummy prize I think you'll agree. I look forward to visiting you soon and enjoy your crafty week!
Lovely card, I like the way you used the balloon fir the shaker part very unusual
