Traveler Shaker Card

The Traveler set is a great new addition to help make male themed cards team it up with the new Maritime DSP and it's a win win situation. I used the Anchor sheet of DSP and cut it to fit 15cm x 21cm I cut it a third of the way down and turned it over. I put Real Red Taffeta ribbon across the divide and just tied a knot onto the length. I used some Linen Thread to make the swag for the pennants which are punched out of differing Maritime papers and Night of Navy and Real Red. The Ship is stamped onto a circle. The same size circle with a smaller circle is die cut in Whisper White and  a contrasting Maritime paper. The contrast is then cut into 8 pieces and 4 pieced onto the white ring. The Linen Thread is then wrapped around to give it the feel of a life ring. Mini Brads are attached to the white areas this finishes off the outside of the ring. Turn the ring over and affix Acetate to the inside of the ring. Use Stampin Dimensionals touching all the way around the edge of  the frame to give the lift to the frame but to also hold the glitter and punched out stars that make the shaker part of the card. Attach the ship circle to the card first then put a small amount of Silver Glitter and the Real Red stars punched from the Itty Bitty punches onto the picture. Wipe around the edges of the Dimensionals with the Embossing Buddy to stop the Glitter from sticking to then and then take the backing off the Dimensionals and attach over the picture and Glitter etc. the sentiment is from the Itty Bitty Banners stamped in Night of Navy and die cut from the same named dies.

Thanks for looking, all the best Joanne x
