I don't know if I got everything in but it was a great way to get my daughter's birthday party invitations done! She is only inviting 2 girls because we are going to a small amusement park in Portland and then they are staying the night. So it wasn't one of those massive card making exercises!
I knew I wanted to make a shaker because I found this cool confetti that was tropical themed! We had bought a bunch of cool tropical party stuff last year thinking ahead for now! So, let's see how I did on the challenge:
**Use black or white cardstock as the base: I used both (sneaky, huh! maybe I'll get extra points when I don't have one of the other elements!)
**Use 4 different patterned paper: green on the tree is DCWV Christmas Glitter stack from years ago, Brown on the tree is Basic Grey, flip flops are WR Memory Keepers, and the yellow sun is making memories
**Non-scrap item: This is where I have some problems, unless you count the confetti which is technically not a scrap item but I bought it with the intention of making shakers!
**Doodling: Yeah - I did it!
**Use whatever is laying around: I had this tropical flower ribbon that I used in another project 2 years ago and was able to use it all up! Whoo Hoo!
Have a great rest of the week and Happy Scrapping!
