Xavier & Oliver!

Hi there

For today I used "Xavier & Oliver"and the sentiment "Bear Hugs And Kisses"

I stamp my image and colored with alcohol markers. Below is the list of the color I used. The pattern paper is ICONS from America Crafts. I still want sparkle so I die cut some gold glitter cardstock using Scalloped Border die from Avery Elle. For embellishment I added glossy accent to "XO" and black candy dots.

I wanted to create a fun shaker Valentine's card today. First colored my image with alcohol markers then fussy cut it leaving a small white border. The pattern paper is "Filled With Love" and "Confetti" from MY MIND"S EYE The die I'm using to created my shaker is from my stash. I gather all the sequins I own to created an special mix.
