The shaker pieces inside are from the Mini Happy Birthday and Mini Confetti sets.  They work really well together. The Confetti shakers are made up of circles, squiggles, squares and triangle shapes.  I couldn't find my beads (it's always when I need something I can't seem to find it!) but along with the confetti and Happy Birthday I would have also liked to incorporate some beads into the shaker.  

These shakers are so simple to create with the layered dies and they really create an extra wow factor on a project.  My kids just LOVE them.

Good morning lovelies. 

Today it's my day again on this wonderful blog and this time I'd like to show you something masculine again. Yes, I am sorry but at the moment I love not making flowers but grungy stuff.  Well it's just a phase that I need to go through "I guess" lol!

Stop Awesome Dude!: 

For this tag I used the 6x6 "Edge of Town"paper pad by Scrapberry's where I was a guest designer last month. The tag I used is packaging from the Graphic 45 staples collection which I always used when making tags because I love the big eyelet one top.

Good morning lovelies.

For this post I'd like to show you a masculine layout for a change as most of you know that I normally do feminine projects with lots of flower dies. Now I went for the steampunk dies.  On the picture you see my handsome boy a couple of days back while we were walking with our dog!

I totally love the fact that he is always wearing his cap and that amazing leather look jacket.  He is my cool dude.

Awesome & Cool Dude!

Firstly I layered my background sheet on two other sheets and for this layout I used two collections by Maja Design "Vintage Summer Basics" & "Vintage Winter" and I gessoed the background sheet.

Then I added some mist that I sprayed with blue Lindy's Stamp Gang Spray to not let it be white this time. Then I stamped with a text stamp to finish it off. 

  I really like the fact that you can cut for example the B402 - Concentric Circles Mesh Border into pieces to give more dimension to your work and not use the whole piece. There are more cool borders and other Cheery Lynn dies you can do that with.
