Shaker Card!

Did you shake this at the store yet???

When I started, I really didn't know what I wanted to do, until I found my clear beads at the bottom of my tote!  This card started off pretty basic.  I used the wave paper to mat the front of the card and I knew that I wanted to cut out the flip flops and pop them on top!  

So you ask, how did I make the shaker part, this part is easy AND I learned it from a Rusty Pickle class that I took at GASC last year.  (BTW, Rusty Pickle will be teaching a class on thursday before GASC at Scrapbooks plus!  How did we get so lucky?!)  Anyways, to make the cover, I took a package of letters and took the plastic wrapper off and started cutting the plastic to the size that I needed!  Yes, I recycled the trash from letters I used in another project to make my card!  I'm being green, are you?  After I got the size correct I laid the clear film over my my wave paper.  I then took a blue copic marker and traced some of the waves.  To give it the contrast, I then turned the film over and glued it down with the drawings on the bottom side, only pushing down on three sides.  The last side I waited to close until I got a bunch of beads in there.  I used micro beads so that they would roll around easily and not just stick there.  Finally after all sides are put down I glued down a blue sparkle frame to finish off the look!

On a side note, I also cut apart the stamp so that I had a right and a left foot that I could stamp each by themselves.  It made it so much easier when I was cutting them out!

Happy Scrapping
