Happy Halloween - Interactive Shaker Card

Hi Crafty friends!

Nicoletta here today to share with you my last card as guest designer for Crafty Meraky!

It is been a really pleasure for me to be here, joining with these amazing products and hope you could notice how much fun I had making this interactive shaker Halloween card.

To make my card as a first thing I stamped all the images from the "Fangs For Being My Friend" stamp set on X-Press Blending Card using black Memento ink.

After coloring all of them with Copic markers and some touch of white gel pen I die cut everything using the coordinate dies and I put them aside.

At that point I started to work on the card's structure.

I die cut a pink rectangle from a patterned paper, I blended the border using the Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink and I glued it over a black base card.

Over the pink background I stamped the little sentiment by Spellbinders and the little spiderwebs from the"Fangs For Being My Friend" stamp set and then I continued to worked on my interactive shaker card.

I die cut four black rectangle frames from black cardstock and one from black foam; I glued the first three frames on foam, I covered with a transparent acetate and over I glued the last black frame.

Next up I added in the back the interactive spiders I previously stamped, colored and die cut. I simply attached them on a transparent Nylon thread fixing it on the back of the frame ,

I continued by adding all the sequins and beads and gluing the base card over the shaker frame.

Next up glued over my shaker card a black branch frame I found in my stash, probably from a crafty swap, and at that point I had only to compose the scene by adding all the images I previously prepared.

As a last touch I added all over the brach frame some set of eye with mobile pupils and over the acetate cover, the Boo sentiment using biggest eyes whit mobile pupils as letter "o"
