Welcome to my crafting blog. After retirement, my husband and I moved to a beautiful location in the Okanagan area of British Columbia. I love all paper crafts including mixed media, journaling and cards. I also dabble in papermaking, photography, fibre art, and altered books. I am an active member of several card and mixed media groups and on the design team of several challenge blog. I love the world of blogging, it has opened many doors for me. My favourite quote is by Maya Angelou. “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” I hope you join me in my search for my creative side. Thanks for stopping by!

Sequin Star Shaker Tag


I made this shaker tag for a upcoming swap at Inky Fun Stamper's Yahoo group.  The theme of the swap is to make a tag using sequins or glitter on a tag.  

I used die cut set for my stars.  I cut one star out of acetate for the front of the large star to make a window for the sequins. The sequins were from a re-cycle Christmas card. I used some textured kraft paper for the first larger of the card. I then used Distress stains for colour.  I added some Christmas music then my stars.  The stars were  edged and coloured with Distress Inks.  To complete my tag I doodled with a white and copper gell pens. 

Thank you for stopping by.  Have a creative week.
