Reach for the Sky

Hello All!! It's time for the Lawnscaping Facebook Inspiration team monthly hop. We have a pretty color for you :) This month we have light blue!!
You must be here from Sabine's blog else start from Lawnscaping blog.


I recently got this stamp set and I had a shaker card in mind. So, I just created a watercolor sky and then turned my stamped kites into shaker elements. I really enjoy making shaker cards and my daughter likes to play with them :) I used some Shimmer Spritz Frost onto the sky area as I like the subtle shimmer it gives...




You have to go to Kari's blog from here and she has an amazing creation for you :) Below is the hop order in-case you miss somewhere..
