Shaker Style

Hi Crafters,

I've been seeing lots of shaker cards in blogland recently so thought I would create one of my own.

I filled it with blue glitter and tiny stars for the night sky.

Top Tip Tuesday Challenge - Duo

Hi Crafters,
Some of you may have caught a glimpse of this card I am about to share with you when I had a slight boo - boo with the schedule button the other day. I wasn't quite quick enough to stop it posting on Facebook but these things happen and so here is my card for the new challenge at Top Tip Tuesday - 'Duo'.

This is what the dictionary says about the word 'duo'

(du ou, dyu ou)

n., pl. du os.

Two persons commonly associated with each other; couple, pair of performers,

Two things ordinarily placed or found together; a pair: a duo of lovebirds
 

for this challenge however it can also be:

Black and white

Scones and Jam

Sausage and mash

Lock and Key

...that type of thing.

 

I chose to use an image from our Sponsor All Dressed Up called Love My Sister.
