Shabby see through shaker tag - jar of Flowers

Sometimes I like to create for the sake of it. not to share a tutorial or a video ...but just for the therapeutic fun of crafting. And today I created this pretty shabby chic inspired see through shaker tag.



I love the jar of flowers stamp and punch set....but I didn't feel my budget would reach to the shaker domes lovely as they are I had a budget. However I kept seeing such stunning creations using the domes and so wanted to try. I scanned my craft room ..hey I'm a crafter I must have something here !!

Then I remembered the clear cd wallets I use to store my dies in. Cheap to buy so not a biggie to cut one up. Made a pocket of glitter by cutting one to the size I wanted using strong red line tape to seal my little shaker pocket.

Then I cut two tag shapes and holding them together punched the Jar shape... The size of my tags are approx 3 x 5 1/2" but I pretty much made it my eye.


I sandwiched my glitter shaker pack between the two tags giving me a see through shaker element . I used the stamp set and stamper first on the tag, then stamped a second time on scrap coloured and cut part of the image and layered over my stamped tag . I found a tiny butterfly from the Butterfly wishes and took my sentiment from Lovely you set.

I coloured the seam binding by simply pressing it into coastal cabana ink .. and no I didn't wear gloves and oh my my hands are a pretty colour!!!

I inked around the jar with a watercolour pencil and used a bled pen to smoosh that colour about. Faux stitching, inked edges and a scruffy shabby seam binding bow finishes the look.

I hope you will give this a try and remember, even if you don't have the exact items you can always find a way if you check through your stash.

Have a happy Sunday.
