A Hedgehugs Shaker Card

And just like that it's Monday.

I've been playing around with different ways 
to make a shaker card and even made a fun one
that I'm in the process of making a video for!
(stay tuned!!)
For today I used the sweet Lawn Fawn Hedgehugs set...

Lawn Fawn Hedgehugs, Lawn Fawn My Silly Valentine, Hero Arts Heart Frame Die,
Simon Says Stamp Rectangle die, Hero Arts Shadow inks
Doodlebug Designs sequins, Hero Arts flower gem, Tombow markers

I initially die cut the stitched rectangle and created my own 
subtle background with the hearts to enter the next
Lawnscaping Challenge: Create a Background


I then decided to make a shaker out of it creating a heart window.
Fun right!?
Tip:  Your sequins (or other fun filler)
will move easier in the window, depending on the
thickness of your foam tape used.
I decided to go with a thinner foam adhesive and only some
sequins move easy.  It's kinda fun not to have them all sit at the bottom!

Those sweet hedgehogs were colored with Tombow Markers
and of course I needed to add a little Hawaiian flair with
a flower gem!
Hope you all have a fabulous week ahead.

Mahalo for stopping by!!
