A Valentine Shaker and a Big Hello

Good Morning all my crafty friends!  I haven't blogged in what seems like forever!  The last time I posted was back in November....what??!  Didn't seem like it's been that long!  I was so busy during the holidays and my card designing (aside from my Christmas cards was down to a minimum)   But it's the start of a new year and I'm back and feeling refreshed!  I didn't share any of my Christmas designs here - so forgive me if I do a little throwback in the next week and show you what I made while I was away from my blog! lol
 
  I'm Guest Designing for the Trendy Twine blog for the next couple of days!  The sweet and gracious Lesley approached me several months back and asked if I would be interested in Guest Designing, I told her I would be honored to hang out with all the lovely trendy twine ladies for a few days and share a few of my creations using that YUMMY baker's twine! I am loving how this card turned out - and I love shakers!
 
 
I love designing for Valentine's  and this is one of my favorite color combinations.  I designed this card using the MFT I Love You More and Mama Elephant Carnival Cupcakes Stampsets.  For the Shaker Heart I used the MFT Pierced Heart Stax, Pretty Pink Posh Sequins and some 3M foam double sided tape.    I polished off the card with Trendy Twine's Totally Red and Strawberry Cupcake baker's twine....love this stuff!  They have 81 different "flavors", if you don't have any of this fantastic baker's twine run on over and grab some - I posted the link below!
 
 
Don't you just love the little bears from the Mama Elephant Carnival Cupcakes set??  I've had this set for quite a while and thought it would go perfectly with this Valentine shaker!
 

These colors just go perfectly together and I think the baker's twine really polishes it off!!  Thank you for stopping by and have a fabulous day!  I will be back tomorrow with another yummy Valentine design.
