Well this was an interesting challenge from the team over at ModSquadChallenge to incorporate the Theme of Thanks or Thankful and make it a shaker but not any kind of shaker but one using an acrylic cup. Sigh none of those little acrylic cups in my stash so I created my own. Not sure if this will be permissible but I used a clear plastic cup that I altered into my shaker….lol…what a day!
Inside my cup is Santa and is reindeer from GKD’s Poster Board Christmas, Sentiment from Sweet ‘n Sassy’s Winter Silhouettes, my background was from a Michael’s craftsmart paper pad, used some green sequins and gem stones for the shaker, created a spellbinder’s frame for the outside and a snowflake to cover some of the print on my “acrylic” cup.
Definitely a hand deliver only card and it’s very top heavy. I do believe I am shaker-ed out!!
Too cute and very funny. You should write a book.
LOL…my craziness keeps me going and creating.
You did an outstanding job! Creating your own cup is perfect for this challenge. Lovely card, even if you have to hand-deliver it.
Thanks, Lisa, it was quite a challenge for me but I was determined to play.
WOW creating your own cup!! You are very creative my friend. This card is amazing.
Thanks, Gerry, just don’t look too closely on my cup or you will see the markings….LOL.
I’m chuckling … both at your comments on how you did this and also at Bonnie’s. I agree with her you should write a book. It would be truly funny. I think it is great that you made your own shaker cup – I wouldn’t even have attempted this and I’m not fond of making shakers at the best of times. You did a good job and hopefully you have someone to whom you can hand-deliver this. You did a good job on this and I like the result.
Thanks, Johanna, I know what you mean about shakers and this was the second one for Christmas. I was determined and if only you could have seen me cutting that little cup apart. Hugs
This is amazing – I am impressed. You did a great job! Thanks for stopping at Mod Squad and creating for the challenge!
LOL….thanks Gail I was hoping it would work and wanted to play in your challenge.
I don’t see that it says in the challenge that it has to be a cup. It says any shaker with acetate will work too.
Hmmmm…did I mis-read the instructions?? Oh well, I was encouraged to go the extra mile….LOL..
Gayle, I totally understand not having something you need and figuring out a different way. You did an excellent job, whether it was needed, or not.
Thanks, Golda, I was pretty sure that the original challenge state acrylic cup but it was fun creating my own version.
