Have a go project!! April

You will need a 15cm square card and contrasting papers of your choice. I used a selection of papers from http://www.papercraftworld.com/ 'Crafting Classics - Pastel' cd.

Cut your base paper to 14.5cm square. Use a contrasting ink to add a shadow border for definition.

Stamp a sentiment in the bottom left corner.

Cut your next paper to 12cm x 5cm and ink the edges as before.

Cut your 3rd paper to 8cm x 8cm.

To make the shaker I used one of Chris' fool proof frames from the cd.

Attach an 8cm x 8cm piece of acetate to the back of the frame. Place a border of foam tape around the back making sure you leave no gaps.

Put some sequins, glitter or beads in the centre. Cover with another piece of acetate. Now add your small square paper to the back of the acetate so it shines through.

Attach your base paper to the card. Then your smaller strip to the right. And finally your shaker element to the centre.

I used a few gem stones to the left top corner to finish.
