Frightful Sight Shaker Frame


Another Halloween Share! 

So far, this is the Hubs favorite...every time I ask him what card I should make he keeps picking this one :)

Some fun with the Frightful Sight Halloween DSP, Spider Web embossing folder, my Spooky Bingo Bits and, Dazzling details, of course!!  I know the Dazzling Details is hard to photograph...but trust me it looks soo cute on my little mummy and goblin guy :)




I added a twist or two to this shaker frame. Literally!!

When I went to Regionals back in August, Carrie Cudney showed us how to make these cute little paper swirls. You take a strip of 3/4" by 12" paper and using our new Simply Scored Tool, score the strip length wise at 1/4" and 5/8". Then fold your two edges in to get the clean lines inside and out. Wrap it around a pencil...and it will curl up nicely for you. Now you can either glue them down to your card...or I dropped it into a shaker frame! 

I used a 2" circle of sticky paper to adhere it to the base. And cover the rest in black glitter.  I dropped a couple of silver beads inside to mimic those old party favor games we always got as kids!
 




One last trick to share....don't limit yourself to the teeny, tiniest of shaker items...just stack those circles up and sky's the limit to what you can fit inside.  I tried making my strip of paper smaller, but as you can imagine trying to fold a thin piece of paper is already quite difficult...but I think this worked out quite nicely.


Happy Stampin
